Abstract Visual Reasoning (AVR) entails discerning latent patterns in visual data and inferring underlying rules. Existing solutions often lack scalability and adaptability, as deep architectures tend to overfit training data, and static neural networks fail to dynamically capture diverse rules. To tackle the challenges, we propose a Dynamic and Scalable Reasoning Framework (DSRF) that greatly enhances the reasoning ability by widening the network instead of deepening it, and dynamically adjusting the reasoning network to better fit novel samples instead of a static network. Specifically, we design a Multi-View Reasoning Pyramid (MVRP) to capture complex rules through layered reasoning to focus features at each view on distinct combinations of attributes, widening the reasoning network to cover more attribute combinations analogous to complex reasoning rules. Additionally, we propose a Dynamic Domain-Contrast Prediction (DDCP) block to handle varying task-specific relationships dynamically by introducing a Gram matrix to model feature distributions, and a gate matrix to capture subtle domain differences between context and target features. Extensive experiments on six AVR tasks demonstrate DSRF’s superior performance, achieving state-of-the-art results under various settings. Code is available here: https://github.com/UNNCRoxLi/DSRF.
