Mobile GUI agents powered by LMMs can perceive screens and follow instructions, yet existing benchmarks largely target short, linear workflows and step-level accuracy, offering limited insight into long-horizon planning and decision-making under branching structures. We present DAC-Bench, a decision-aware benchmark with compositional tasks comprising 830 episodes and 11,345 action steps across 35 applications on Android and iOS. Tasks are organized into Sequential, Conjunctive, Conditional, and Hierarchical structures, reflecting real-world multi-step and branching interaction patterns. To complement standard step-level evaluation, we introduce weighted longest common subsequence to capture length-sensitive progress and decision accuracy for branch correctness. Evaluations across 7 diverse agents show substantial performance degradation compared to prior benchmarks, with success rates dropping below 5% on 6–8 step tasks and branch accuracy averaging 38%, highlighting challenges in conditional decision-making. By exposing these failure modes, DAC-Bench provides a challenging and diagnostic benchmark for advancing decision-aware mobile GUI agents.

Graphical User Interface (GUI) Agents, powered by multimodal large language models (MLLMs), have shown great potential for task automation on computing devices such as computers and mobile phones. However, existing agents face challenges in multi-step reasoning and reliance on textual annotations, limiting their effectiveness. We introduce InfiGUIAgent, an MLLM-based GUI Agent trained with a two-stage supervised fine-tuning pipeline. Stage 1 enhances fundamental skills such as GUI understanding and grounding, while Stage 2 integrates hierarchical reasoning and expectation-reflection reasoning skills using synthesized data to enable native reasoning abilities of the agents. InfiGUIAgent achieves competitive performance on several GUI benchmarks, highlighting the impact of native reasoning skills in enhancing GUI interaction for automation tasks.

The dream to create AI assistants as capable and versatile as the fictional J.A.R.V.I.S from Iron Man has long captivated imaginations. With the evolution of multi-modal large language models ((M)LLMs), this dream is closer to reality, as (M)LLM-based Agents using computers, mobile phones and web browsers by operating within the environments and interfaces (e.g., Graphical User Interface (GUI) and Command Line Interface (CLI)) provided by operating systems (OS) to automate tasks have significantly advanced. This paper presents a comprehensive survey on these advanced agents, designated as OS Agents. We begin by elucidating the fundamentals of OS Agents, exploring their key components and capabilities. We then examine methodologies for constructing OS Agents, focusing on domain-specific foundation models and agent frameworks. A detailed review of evaluation metrics and benchmarks highlights how OS Agents are assessed across diverse platforms and tasks. Finally, we discuss current challenges and identify promising directions for future research. An open-source GitHub repository is maintained as a dynamic resource to foster further innovation in this field.
Legal claims refer to the plaintiff’s demands in a case and are essential to guiding judicial reasoning and case resolution. While many works have focused on improving the efficiency of legal professionals, the research on helping non-professionals (e.g., plaintiffs) remains unexplored. This paper explores the problem of legal claim generation based on the given case’s facts. First, we construct ClaimGen-CN, the first dataset for Chinese legal claim generation task, from various real-world legal disputes. Additionally, we design an evaluation metric tailored for assessing the generated claims, which encompasses two essential dimensions: factuality and clarity. Building on this, we conduct a comprehensive zero-shot evaluation of state-of-the-art general and legal-domain large language models. Our findings highlight the limitations of the current models in factual precision and expressive clarity, pointing to the need for more targeted development in this domain. To encourage further exploration of this important task, we will make the dataset publicly available.
