RS-EoT (Remote Sensing Evidence-of-Thought) is a language-driven, iterative visual evidence-seeking reasoning paradigm. It frames reasoning as a reasoning-perception loop where the model continuously revisits the image, seeking new visual cues guided by the evolving reasoning.
SocraticAgent is a self-play multi-agent system (Reasoner, Perceiver, Verifier) that synthesizes RS-EoT reasoning traces. It emulates the Socratic Method, where iterative questioning and evidence seeking refine the reasoning chain.
A two-stage progressive RL strategy enhances and generalizes RS-EoT: first, RL on fine-grained grounding tasks, then RL on general RS VQA tasks with a novel multiple-choice VQA reconstruction and tailored reward function.

| Generalizability | Broad RS Scenarios | Limited |
Iterative Reasoning in Action (Case#1)
Query: Assuming a recently landed aircraft, is there an available gate with a jet bridge for it? A: Yes
VL-Rethinker fails to identify an available gate, reasoning based on a single coarse scene interpretation. RS-EoT-7B performs iterative verification: establishing airport context, explicitly searching for an unoccupied gate, and finally identifying an available one. This demonstrates RS-EoT's ability to correct its logical path through progressive refinement based on visual evidence.
