## 🌈 Overview
We are thrilled to introduce Spatial-SSRL, a novel self-supervised RL paradigm aimed at enhancing LVLM spatial understanding. 
By optimizing Qwen2.5-VL-7B with Spatial-SSRL, the model exhibits stronger spatial intelligence across seven spatial understanding benchmarks in both image and video settings.

Spatial-SSRL is a lightweight tool-free framework that is natually compatible with the RLVR training paradigm and easy to extend to a multitude of pretext tasks.
Five tasks are currently formulated in the framework, requiring only ordinary RGB and RGB-D images. And we welcome you to join Spatial-SSRL with effective pretext tasks to further strengthen the capabilities of LVLMs!

## 💡 Highlights
- 🔥 **Highly Scalable:** Spatial-SSRL uses ordinary raw RGB and RGB-D images instead of richly-annotated public datasets or manual labels for data curation, making it highly scalable.
- 🔥 **Cost-effective:** Avoiding the need for human labels or API calls for general LVLMs throughout the entire pipeline endows Spatial-SSRL with cost-effectiveness.
- 🔥 **Lightweight:** Prior approaches for spatial understanding heavily rely on annotation of external tools, incurring inherent errors in training data and additional cost. In constrast, Spatial-SSRL is completely tool-free and can easily be extended to more self-supervised tasks. 
- 🔥 **Naturally Verifiable:** Intrinsic supervisory signals determined by pretext objectives are naturally verifiable, aligning Spatial-SSRL well with the RLVR paradigm.

## 📊 Results
We train Qwen2.5-VL-3B and Qwen2.5-VL-7B with our Spatial-SSRL paradigm and the experimental results across seven spatial understanding benchmarks are shown below.

## ⭐️ Quick Start
To directly experience Spatial-SSRL-7B, you can try it out on [🤗Spatial-SSRL Space](https://huggingface.co/spaces/yuhangzang/Spatial-SSRL)!

Here we provide a code snippet for you to start a simple trial of Spatial-SSRL-7B on your own device. You can download the model from 🤗<a href="https://huggingface.co/internlm/Spatial-SSRL-7B">Spatial-SSRL-7B Model</a > before your trial!

```python
from transformers import Qwen2_5_VLForConditionalGeneration, AutoTokenizer, AutoProcessor
from qwen_vl_utils import process_vision_info

model_path = "internlm/Spatial-SSRL-7B" #You can change it to your own local path if deployed already
img_path = "examples/eg1.jpg"
question = "Consider the real-world 3D locations of the objects. Which object has a higher location? A. yellow bear kite B. building"
#We recommend using the format prompt to make the inference consistent with training
format_prompt = "\n You FIRST think about the reasoning process as an internal monologue and then provide the final answer. The reasoning process MUST BE enclosed within <think> </think> tags. The final answer MUST BE put in \\boxed{}."

model = Qwen2_5_VLForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained(
    model_path, torch_dtype="auto", device_map="auto"
)
processor = AutoProcessor.from_pretrained(model_path)
messages = [
    {
        "role": "user",
        "content": [

            },
            {"type": "text", "text": question + format_prompt},
        ],
    }
]

text = processor.apply_chat_template(
    messages, tokenize=False, add_generation_prompt=True
)
image_inputs, video_inputs = process_vision_info(messages)
inputs = processor(
    text=[text],
    images=image_inputs,
    videos=video_inputs,
    padding=True,
    return_tensors="pt",
)
inputs = inputs.to("cuda")

generated_ids = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=4096, do_sample=False)
generated_ids_trimmed = [
    out_ids[len(in_ids) :] for in_ids, out_ids in zip(inputs.input_ids, generated_ids)
]
output_text = processor.batch_decode(
    generated_ids_trimmed, skip_special_tokens=True, clean_up_tokenization_spaces=False
)
print("Model Response:", output_text)
```
