Knowing the Self, Understanding the World: A Dual-Cognition Benchmark for UAV Spatio-temporal Reasoning with MLLMs
Multimodal large language models have achieved strong performance across diverse vision-language tasks, yet their capabilities in UAV scenarios remain insufficiently explored. Recent UAV-oriented benchmarks have begun to evaluate MLLMs in aerial scenarios, but they typically focus on scene understanding, event recognition, or navigation completion, rather than jointly assessing the dual-cognition capability required for UAV agents: reasoning about both the UAV's own state and the external environment in multiview spatio-temporal contexts. To address this gap, we present UAV-DualCog, a benchmar
