# Theory of Space: Visual Scene Dataset

This dataset provides pre-rendered 3D multi-room environments for evaluating spatial reasoning in Vision Language Models (VLMs). It is designed to support the **Theory of Space (ToS)** benchmark, which tests whether foundation models can actively construct spatial beliefs through exploration.

**Paper**: Theory of Space: Can foundation models construct spatial beliefs through active perception?  
**Project Page**: https://theory-of-space.github.io  
**GitHub Repository**: https://github.com/williamzhangNU/Theory-of-Space

## Dataset Overview

| Property | Value |
|----------|-------|
| Rooms | 3 |
| Total Runs | 100 |
| Objects per Room | 4 |
| Includes False-Belief Data | Yes |

## Usage

Download via Hugging Face CLI:

```bash
huggingface-cli download MLL-Lab/tos-data --repo-type dataset --local-dir room_data
```

Or use the ToS setup script which downloads automatically:

```bash
git clone https://github.com/williamzhangNU/Theory-of-Space.git
cd Theory-of-Space
source setup.sh
```

Refer to the [GitHub repository](https://github.com/williamzhangNU/Theory-of-Space) for evaluation instructions.
