Does RLVR Extend Reasoning Boundaries? Investigating Capability Expansion in Vision-Language Models (2026.acl-long)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Recent studies suggest that RLVR amplifies behaviors inherent to the pre-training distribution rather than inducing new capabilities. |
| Approach: | They propose a framework for RLVR that extends the spatial reasoning boundary . they use a mapping framework where the difficulty is precisely regulated by path length and number of turns . |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework extends the spatial reasoning boundary on two real-world navigation benchmarks. |
