🤔 About SpatialEval

SpatialEval is a comprehensive benchmark for evaluating spatial intelligence in LLMs and VLMs across four key dimensions:

• Spatial relationships
• Positional understanding
• Object counting
• Navigation

Benchmark Tasks

1. Spatial-Map: Understanding spatial relationships between objects in map-based scenarios
2. Maze-Nav: Testing navigation through complex environments
3. Spatial-Grid: Evaluating spatial reasoning within structured environments
4. Spatial-Real: Assessing real-world spatial understanding

Each task supports three input modalities:

• Text-only (TQA)
• Vision-only (VQA)
• Vision-Text (VTQA)

🚀 Quick Start

📍 Load Dataset

SpatialEval provides three input modalities—TQA (Text-only), VQA (Vision-only), and VTQA (Vision-text)—across four tasks: Spatial-Map, Maze-Nav, Spatial-Grid, and Spatial-Real. Each modality and task is easily accessible via Hugging Face. Ensure you have installed the packages:

from datasets import load_dataset

tqa = load_dataset("MilaWang/SpatialEval", "tqa", split="test")
vqa = load_dataset("MilaWang/SpatialEval", "vqa", split="test")
vtqa = load_dataset("MilaWang/SpatialEval", "vtqa", split="test")
