Artificial intelligence continues to advance in natural language processing but still faces challenges in spatial reasoning tasks. Visual-spatial reasoning is fundamental for robotics, autonomous navigation, and interactive problem-solving applications. AI systems must effectively interpret structured environments and execute sequential decisions to function in these domains. While traditional maze-solving algorithms, such as depth-first search and A*,…
Recent advancements in LLMs have significantly improved their reasoning abilities, enabling them to perform text composition, code generation, and logical deduction tasks. However, these models often struggle with balancing their internal knowledge and external tool use, leading to Tool Overuse. This occurs when LLMs unnecessarily rely on external tools for tasks that their parametric knowledge…
