平面几何问题(PGP)求解已成为多模态推理的重要基准,因其需精确视觉感知与多步符号推演。尽管测试时缩放(TTS)在通用数学推理中表现优异,但在符号程序范式下的几何求解中效果有限。我们识别出两大障碍:符号程序导致推理多样性不足,以及符号推演前缺乏显式视觉定位。为此,提出多轨迹合成(MTS),将每个符号程序转化为异构推理轨迹,包括可执行的Python脚本与带有思维链增强的变体。进一步提出感知增强(PA)训练,先将图形解析为结构化语义片段再进行推演,并设计共识引导的多轨迹集成(CG-MTE)实现高效自适应推理。在三个几何基准上的实验表明,该方法在不同模型规模下均显著提升求解性能,优于通用大模型与专用几何求解器。在测试时缩放下,CG-MTE达到与高预算自一致方法相当的准确率,采样成本降低最高达8倍。代码与数据已公开于https://github.com/Jason8Kang/ReTTS-PGPS。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Plane geometry problem (PGP) solving has become a critical benchmark for multimodal reasoning because it requires accurate visual perception and precise multi-step symbolic deduction. Although test-time scaling (TTS) has demonstrated remarkable success in general mathematical reasoning, it fails to scale effectively under the symbolic-program paradigm for plane geometry. We identify two key obstacles: limited reasoning diversity induced by rigid symbolic programs and insufficient explicit visual grounding before symbolic deduction. To address these issues, we propose Multi-Trace Synthesis (MTS), which converts each symbolic program into heterogeneous reasoning traces, including executable Python scripts and CoT-augmented variants. We further propose Perception-Augmented (PA) training, which parses diagrams into structured semantic clauses before deduction, and Consensus-Guided Multi-Trace Ensemble (CG-MTE) for efficient self-adaptive inference. Experiments on three geometry benchmarks show that our method consistently improves PGP-solving across model scales and achieves strong performance against both general-purpose MLLMs and specialized geometry solvers. Under test-time scaling, CG-MTE achieves comparable accuracy to high-budget self-consistency while reducing sampling cost by up to 8x.
