Thinking in Pictures: A Systematic Benchmark for Reasoning-driven Image Generation

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 2, 2026 · UTC

Recent advancements in unified generative models (UGMs) and world simulators have achieved unprecedented results in visual perception and synthesis. However, these models primarily rely on surface-level event alignment, leaving the capacity for high-level visual reasoning underexplored. True visual generative intelligence demands "Reasoning-to-Generation", an ability to infer latent rules from visual inputs and manifest solutions through precise, logically constrained visual outcomes. We introduce RIG-BENCH, a novel comprehensive benchmark that systematically evaluates Reasoning-driven Image G
