MedBenchAgent is a multi‑agent framework that automates the entire process of constructing medical vision‑language model benchmarks, from deriving the benchmark specification to generating and auditing evaluation items. It uses a Benchmark Intermediate Representation (BIR) to encode task definitions, evidence mappings, evaluation protocols, and item specifications, separating planning from instantiation. The system achieves a Task‑Space F1 of 90.9% and demonstrates high audit pass rates, outperforming existing task induction methods and showing portability across specialized medical domains.

ATP‑Bench proposes a new benchmark for evaluating agentic tool planning in multimodal large language models (MLLMs) that generate interleaved text-and-image responses. The benchmark contains 7,702 QA pairs, including 1,592 visual‑question‑answer pairs, across eight categories and 25 visual‑critical intents, all verified by humans. A Multi‑Agent MLLM‑as‑a‑Judge (MAM) system is introduced to assess tool‑call precision, missed opportunities, and overall response quality without relying on ground‑truth references.

OSWorld-Science is a benchmark and evaluation environment for computer-using agents that use visual language models (VLMs) to perform scientific software tasks. It includes 12 VLMs and 146 high-quality tasks across domains such as molecular drawing, pathology image analysis, statistical computing, and physical simulation, with artifact-based evaluation and a harness that logs interactions and supports model comparison. The benchmark was developed through expert proposals and iterative human–AI co‑design, and results show that current VLMs still struggle with key scientific questions, offering insights into factors like language, reasoning, and context length.

Jev-LiteMAS is a multi‑agent framework that separates decision‑making from generative execution in large‑language‑model workflows. By using a lightweight decision model (Jev) to dynamically select experts and screen artifacts, it closes the planning and review gaps left by pure generative planners and reviewers. Experiments on four benchmarks show that Jev‑LiteMAS cuts generative‑LLM token usage by 12.7–54.6% while keeping accuracy within 1.34 percentage points and reducing latency in most settings.

MatToolBench is a new benchmark that evaluates multimodal GUI agents on professional materials science software. It contains 204 tasks across 10 tools in three modalities—GUI operation, OriginPro scripting, and code-based database queries—executed inside a Windows 11 VM. The benchmark offers fine-grained, expert-decomposed scoring and a high-performing multimodal judge for aesthetic assessment, revealing that strong general benchmark performance does not transfer to scientific workflows.

MedGEN-Bench is a new benchmark for open‑ended multimodal medical generation that addresses limitations in current medical visual benchmarks, such as query‑image misalignment, closed‑ended answer spaces, and text‑centric outputs. The dataset contains 6,422 image‑text pairs across six imaging modalities, 15 clinical tasks, and 27 subtasks, including VQA, image editing, and contextual multimodal generation pairs. Evaluation combines reference‑based fidelity metrics with a structured, checklist‑guided assessment by a medical VLM judge, and preliminary results show that image‑output tasks remain unsaturated while contextual augmentation improves image‑instruction similarity.

AgentHorizon is a benchmark comprising 1,373 computer‑use tasks with instruction‑trajectory pairs collected from 166 hours of human‑recorded activity across three operating systems. The benchmark uses a paired design that swaps instructions to create negative tasks, testing judges’ ability to distinguish successful trajectories from those that completed a similar but incompatible request. Eleven judges were evaluated, with GPT‑5.5 achieving the highest balanced accuracy of 80.9% on the full trajectory subset, while tool‑use benefits some models but harms others, revealing large variability in judges’ performance.
