From Hallucination to Grounding: Diagnosing Visual Spatial Intelligence via CRISP (opens in new tab)

Current VLM evaluations often conflate language priors with genuine spatial reasoning. To address this, we introduce CRISP, a novel structural-diagnostic evaluation paradigm that assesses visual spatial intelligence through consistency, the alignment between implicit perception and explicit reasoning. Unlike traditional black-box QA, CRISP utilizes metric 3D Scene Graphs and an oracle intervention protocol to decouple latent reasoning capabili...
