VICO: Visual Environments Co-Evolving for Vision-Language Model Reasoning

Reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR) has become a standard recipe for post-training vision-language models (VLMs),

Key points

  • As the actor improves, fixed tasks drift out of its learning frontier: many
  • We propose VICO, a co-evolutionary framework in which an actor
  • By shifting from human-labeled supervision to image-editing co-evolution,
  • VICO offers a scalable path beyond static-corpus RLVR for visual reasoning.
