A team from Tsinghua University just released AndroidLab, the first systematic framework to evaluate and train Android mobile agents that works with both text-only and multimodal models.

They show that fine-tuning small open-source models can significantly boost performance, matching that of much bigger closed models like GPT-4o.

The team built:

๐Ÿ“Šย A reproducible benchmark with 138 tasks across 9 apps to evaluate mobile agents systematically

๐Ÿ“๐Ÿ“ฑย A framework supporting both text-only (via XML) and visual (via marked screenshots) interfaces

โœ…ย An instruction dataset of 10.5k operation traces for training mobile agents

Key insights:

- ๐Ÿ“ˆ Fine-tuning improves performance BY A LOT: Open-source model Llama-3.1-8B improves from 2% to 24% success rate after training, nearly reaching GPT-4o performance although itโ€™s much smaller
- โš™๏ธ Text-only agents match multimodal ones: XML-based agents achieve similar performance to screenshot-based multimodal agents.
