Dynamic scene graphs (DSGs) capture spatio-temporal interactions across videos as $\langle$subject, predicate, object$\rangle$ triplets, and underpin downstream tasks such as video captioning, video question answering, and action analysis. However, end-to-end dynamic scene graph generation (DSGG) methods are closed-set: they recognize only objects and predicates from a fixed training vocabulary and struggle with the long-tailed distribution of rare concepts, severely limiting their real-world applicability. Existing open-vocabulary models typically inherit pretrained large language models, resulting in multi-stage training and inference with substantial cost. We introduce OvDSGG, the first end-to-end framework for open-vocabulary DSGG. OvDSGG builds on top of an open-vocabulary Spatial Backbone and a Temporal Backbone; we further propose a Triplet Feature Extraction Module that bridges them, and a Visual-Language Alignment Module that preserves open-vocabulary recognition by learning an adaptive decision boundary in the joint visual-language feature space, without expensive knowledge distillation in existing methods. We further introduce a rigorous open-vocabulary DSGG benchmark adapted from Action Genome, with disjoint Base/Novel splits for both objects and predicates. OvDSGG significantly outperforms open-vocabulary baselines across all metrics, with zero-shot Recall@$K$ scores 10.0--20.4 percentage point higher than the next-best baseline, while on closed-set DSGG remaining competitive with state-of-the-art models. Code and benchmark are publicly available at https://github.com/jhelsby/OvDSGG/.

LLM-based game agents often perform poorly on more complex tasks. This work examines whether these failures are linked to limited spatial reasoning and evaluates whether causal prompt augmentation and multi-step planning can improve win-rates while managing response latency. Using the open-source Qwen3 model family, we conduct experiments across varying model scales, reasoning modes, and planning horizons. We further introduce a focused GVGAI benchmark consisting of three custom games with five difficulty levels to isolate spatial navigation. The evaluation follows two paradigms: an initial ``positioning experiment''to test an agent's ability to find its exact coordinates, and a study of game-play success. Our results show that while larger models with an enabled thinking mode identify their positions more accurately, overall performance in coordinate matching remains limited for smaller models. Win rates decrease as game levels and layout complexity increase, validating the benchmark's difficulty scaling. Integrating causal context into the prompts tends to improve the agents'success rates, particularly for bigger models. While enabling thinking mode and longer planning horizons significantly improve performance, multi-step planning further reduces mean per-step response times, offering a practical trade-off between reasoning depth and execution speed.
