Bridging Physical Reasoning and Task Generalization via Visual Action Outcome Reasoning Alignment

Vision-language models (VLMs) struggle to generalize in interactive physical reasoning, particularly under unseen tasks and environments.

Vision-language models (VLMs) struggle to generalize in interactive physical reasoning, particularly under unseen tasks and environments. Two key failure modes are prominent: hallucinated chain-of-thought (CoT) reasoning that contradicts physical reality, and misalignment…
