Decoupling What from Where: How Should a Small GUI Grounding Model Receive the Action Type?

Excerpt

arXiv:2610.07444v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: A GUI agent decides which action to take and where to take it; we ask how a small grounding model should receive the action type. Fine-tuning Qwen2-VL-2B with LoRA on Android in the Wild, we compare a flat baseline with five ways of supplying the type under matched data, compute, and decoding: an auxiliary loss, a hard-routed action word, an additive learned embedding, a prepended learned token, and the type written into the prompt. With five seeds
