MineExplorer is a benchmark designed to assess the open‑world exploration abilities of multimodal large language models (MLLMs) in Minecraft. It filters out tasks that rely heavily on Minecraft‑specific knowledge, organizes tasks into ReAct‑style capabilities, and composes atomic tasks into implicit multi‑hop challenges. A multi‑agent synthesis workflow creates reliable task graphs, sandbox scenes, and rule‑based milestone evaluators, and human evaluation confirms its superiority over a single‑agent baseline. Experiments show that while advanced MLLMs can handle many single‑hop tasks, they struggle with longer trajectories that require coordinating hidden prerequisites, and larger models or different thinking modes do not consistently improve performance.

The paper introduces the AGI Maze Prediction Datasets and Benchmark, a lightweight, procedurally generated grid‑world testbed for evaluating predictive models, particularly Transformers, on tasks such as per‑step transition prediction, fixed‑horizon state prediction, and sequential textual‑observation prediction. It compares byte‑level Transformer baselines with two memory‑augmented architectures, showing that a pseudo‑video spatial‑memory Transformer achieves perfect validation accuracy on selected tasks and improves sequential text‑trace prediction, while a generic auxiliary latent‑memory Transformer does not consistently help. The study highlights that structured, task‑aligned working memory can be more effective than merely increasing latent capacity, and positions the benchmark as a compact setting for testing architectures that couple textual interfaces to learned structured state.

arXiv:2606. 11680v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language model (LLM) agents struggle with long-horizon tasks due to their inherent statelessness, requiring all task-relevant information to be encoded in growing input contexts.
