Online Dense Reinforcement Learning with Planning-Grounding Agent for UI Navigation on Live IOS Apps

Read the original on arXiv AI →

The paper introduces an online reinforcement learning framework for UI navigation on live iOS apps, separating the agent into a Planning component and a UI Grounding model. It employs an LLM-as-a-Judge to supply dense step-level and terminal rewards, and uses PPO with a novel GiGPPO value estimation to stabilize training. Large-scale infrastructure enables concurrent virtual device training, and experiments on UINavBench, iOSWorld, and AndroidWorld show the approach outperforms supervised fine-tuning and terminal-only RL, achieving significant generalization gains and matching state‑of‑the‑art models on real iOS tasks.

BiGrounder: Bidirectional Training Unlocks the Potential of GUI Grounding

BiGrounder introduces a bidirectional training paradigm for GUI grounding, enabling models to generate action descriptions from target coordinates during supervised fine‑tuning and to sample semantically consistent instruction variations during reinforcement learning. This cycle‑consistency approach couples semantic quality with grounding success, allowing the model’s own instruction policy to provide continually refreshed reinforcement trajectories. The 4B‑parameter BiGrounder achieves competitive accuracy across five grounding benchmarks, demonstrating the effectiveness of the proposed training paradigm.
