Paper

Scaling GUI Agents with Visual State Transitions

Xiangyan Liu, Kaixin Li et al.

Introduces State Transition Pretraining, which jointly learns to infer actions from GUI changes and predict future states from current screens and actions. Subsequent instruction-trajectory fine-tuning tests whether these representations transfer to desktop and mobile agent tasks.

Computer-Using World Model

Yiming Guan, Rui Yu et al.

Presents a desktop world model that predicts textual UI changes before synthesizing the next screenshot. It learns from Microsoft Office transitions and is evaluated by letting a frozen agent compare simulated actions before execution.

Lightweight Neural App Control

Filippos Christianos, Georgios Papoudakis et al.

LiMAC combines a compact Action Transformer with a fine-tuned vision-language model for Android app control. It uses textual goals and histories of screenshots and UI trees to predict actions, with evaluation on two mobile-control datasets.
