摘要:
尽管视觉-语言模型(VLM)已展现出多轮视觉推理能力,但其推理轨迹仍相对浅层且以文本为中心,限制了其在复杂视觉挑战中的适用性。相比之下,人类思维通常涉及长程推理,并伴有交错的视觉-文本思维链(VT-CoT)。为弥合这一差距,我们引入InterSketch,一种交错推理模型,通过自校正和逐步奖励机制增强VT-CoT能力。InterSketch使用外部工具动态生成中间视觉草图,并将其与文本推理交错进行,从而在长程视觉理解任务中实现有效的感知和逻辑推理。具体而言,在第一个冷启动阶段,我们提出了一个合成的高质量交错VT-CoT数据集,并引入反思机制,使模型具备多轮交错推理和自校正能力。在后续的强化学习(RL)阶段,我们设计了一种逐步奖励机制,以缓解长程推理中仅端到端监督固有的奖励信号稀疏性问题。在视觉推理基准上的大量实验证明了InterSketch的有效性,其性能甚至超越了Gemini-3-Pro等专有模型。
英文摘要:
While vision-language models (VLMs) have exhibited multi-turn visual reasoning capabilities, their reasoning trajectories remain relatively shallow and are dominated by a text-centric paradigm, limiting their applicability to complex visual challenges. In contrast, human-like thought typically involves long-horizon reasoning with an interleaved visual-textual chain-of-thought (VT-CoT). To bridge this gap, we introduce InterSketch, an interleaved reasoning model to enhance the VT-CoT capability via self-correcting and stepwise reward mechanisms. InterSketch dynamically generates intermediate visual sketches using external tools and interleaves them with textual reasoning, enabling effective perception and logical reasoning over long-horizon visual understanding tasks. Specifically, in the first cold-start stage, we propose a synthesized high-quality interleaved VT-CoT dataset and include a reflection mechanism to enable the model's capability in multi-turn interleaved reasoning and self-correction. In the subsequent reinforcement learning (RL) stage, we design a stepwise reward mechanism to mitigate the sparsity of reward signals inherent in end-only supervision over long-horizon reasoning. Extensive experiments on visual reasoning benchmarks demonstrate the effectiveness of InterSketch, even outperforming proprietary models such as Gemini-3-Pro.
