SceneFunRI: Reasoning the Invisible for Task-Driven Functional Object Localization
In real-world scenes, target objects may reside in regions that are not visible. While humans can often infer the locations of occluded objects from context and commonsense knowledge, this capability remains a major challenge for vision-language models (VLMs). To address this gap, we introduce SceneFunRI, a benchmark for Reasoning the Invisible. Based on the SceneFun3D dataset, SceneFunRI formulates the task as a 2D spatial reasoning problem via a semi-automatic pipeline and comprises 855 instances. It requires models to infer the locations of invisible functional objects from task instructions and commonsense reasoning. The strongest baseline model (Gemini 3 Flash) only achieves an CAcc@...
