GeoWeaver: Grounding Visual Tokens with Geometric Evidence before Scene Reasoning
Spatio-temporal reasoning in vision-language models requires visual representations that preserve physical geometry rather than merely semantic appearance. Recent multimodal models incorporate geometric information through structural branches, 3D-aware supervision, reasoning-stage fusion, or long-horizon memory. While these approaches demonstrate the importance of geometry for spatial intelligence, they typically treat geometric cues as a shared signal across all visual tokens. We note that this overlooks a finer-grained challenge: different visual tokens require different geometric evidence depending on their spatial roles. To address this limitation, we introduce GeoWeaver, a pre-reasoning geometric grounding framework that treats geometry as a representational prerequisite for spatio-temporal reasoning. GeoWeaver constructs a multi-level geometry bank from a frozen geometry encoder and performs token-adaptive geometric evidence allocation, enabling each visual token to retrieve the most relevant geometric abstractions. The selected evidence is incorporated into visual tokens via a residual grounding operation prior to language modeling, yielding geometry-grounded representations for downstream reasoning. Extensive evaluations on spatial reasoning benchmarks demonstrate that GeoWeaver consistently enhances geometry-aware reasoning while retaining general multimodal capabilities. This indicates that geometric information yields the greatest benefit not as a late-fusion auxiliary signal but as a fundamental prerequisite that shapes the representational foundation on which large language models perform reasoning. All source code and models will be released at https://github.com/yahooo-m/GeoWeaver .
