Vision Language Models (VLMs) excel on visual benchmarks but fail systematically on tasks requiring abstract reasoning. Existing benchmarks document this failure but cannot say \emph{why} it happens or which cognitive capability is missing. We close this gap by adopting the Relational Match-to-Sample (RMTS) paradigm fr …

Recent multimodal image generation models can take multiple images and textual instructions as input, enabling reference-based generation guided not only by text but also by visual instructions such as layouts, arrows, and pose cues. However, existing benchmarks do not evaluate the joint setting in which multiple refer …

Recent image generation models can take multiple reference images as input and combine them into a new image. However, multi-reference image generation remains challenging: models may omit or duplicate subjects from the references, or produce images in which multiple subjects appear unnaturally pasted. Recent work has …
