MedImageOSWorld: Benchmarking GUI Agents for Medical Image Consoles

Abstract

Graphical consoles offer a practical interface for medical acquisition assistance, allowing agents to work through the controls and visual feedback used by human operators. Reliable assistance requires linking on-screen anatomy to acquisition decisions that determine what image evidence becomes available next. We introduce MedImageOSWorld, a benchmark for evaluating this capability in simulated CT, MR, and ultrasound consoles. Using screenshots and mouse-and-keyboard actions, agents configure protocols, plan acquisitions, inspect the resulting images, and make corrective adjustments across seven capability levels, from console operation to feedback-driven control. Evaluation combines task-specific workflow checks with hidden anatomical ground truth to assess procedural completion and acquisition outcomes separately. A common evaluation protocol specifies episode conditions and interaction budgets, while recorded trajectories support analysis of how agents observe, act, and respond to acquisition feedback. Across eleven open-weight agents, success rates range from 3.0 to 25.0 on a 0-100 scale while workflow-progress rates reach 21.5-74.5: agents complete much of the console workflow but rarely acquire the intended anatomy. Success collapses between perception and planning, from 79-90% at the lowest three levels for the best agent to at most 12% for millimetre-level planning and 0% for closed-loop control among open-weight agents. Two proprietary agents reach success rates of about 34 and exceed the best open-weight agent mainly in acquisition quality (61 versus 42). MedImageOSWorld provides a controlled setting for studying whether general-purpose GUI agents can translate visual observations into effective medical acquisition decisions.

Answer Set Networks: Casting Answer Set Programming into Deep Learning

Although Answer Set Programming (ASP) allows constraining neural-symbolic (NeSy) systems, its employment is hindered by the prohibitive costs of computing stable models and the CPU-bound nature of state-of-the-art solvers. To this end, we propose Answer Set Networks (ASN), a NeSy solver. Based on Graph Neural Networks (GNN), ASNs are a scalable approach to ASP-based Deep Probabilistic Logic Programming (DPPL). Specifically, we show how to translate ASPs into ASNs and demonstrate how ASNs can efficiently solve the encoded problem by leveraging GPU's batching and parallelization capabilities. Our experimental evaluations demonstrate that ASNs outperform state-of-the-art CPU-bound NeSy systems on multiple tasks. Simultaneously, we make the following two contributions based on the strengths of ASNs. Namely, we are the first to show the finetuning of Large Language Models (LLM) with DPPLs, employing ASNs to guide the training with logic. Further, we show the "constitutional navigation" of drones, i.e., encoding public aviation laws in an ASN for routing Unmanned Aerial Vehicles in uncertain environments.

Towards LLM Agents for Earth Observation

Earth Observation (EO) provides critical planetary data for environmental monitoring, disaster management, climate science, and other scientific domains. In this work we ask: Are AI systems ready for reliable Earth Observation? To answer this, we introduce UnivEARTH, a coding benchmark of 408 yes/no questions from NASA Earth Observatory articles across 7 various topics and over 15 satellite instruments and sources. Using Google Earth Engine API as a tool in a zero-shot setup, LLM agents achieve an accuracy of 40.0% where the code fails to run over 44% of the time. To better understand LLM agent behavior, we also analyze the impact of using the JavaScript API versus Python and the effect of providing documentation. Furthermore, we find that using a Reflexion framework significantly reduces errors: Claude-4.5-Sonnet, Gemini-2.5-Pro, and GPT-5 accuracies rise to around 60%. However, these results remain only marginally above random chance. Taken together, our findings identify significant challenges to be solved before AI agents can automate earth observation, and suggest paths forward.

OpenPhone: Mobile Agentic Foundation Models

With the advancement of multimodal large language models (MLLMs), building GUI agent systems has become an increasingly promising direction--especially for mobile platforms, given their rich app ecosystems and intuitive touch interactions. Yet mobile GUI agents face a critical dilemma: truly on-device models (4B or smaller) lack sufficient performance, while capable models (starting from 7B) are either too large for mobile deployment or prohibitively costly (e.g., cloud-only closed-source MLLMs). To resolve this, we propose OpenPhone, a mobile GUI agent system that leverages device-cloud collaboration to tap the cost-efficiency of on device models and the high capability of cloud models, while avoiding their drawbacks. Specifically, OpenPhone enhances Qwen2.5-VL-3B via two-stage SFT->GRPO training on synthetic GUI data for strong decision-making, integrates an efficient long-reasoning and memory management mechanism to utilize historical interactions under tight resources, and defaults to on-device execution--only escalating challenging subtasks to the cloud via real-time complexity assessment. Experiments on the online AndroidLab benchmark and diverse apps show OpenPhone matches or nears larger models, with a significant reduction in cloud costs.
