Representative image for LookAgain: Closed-Loop GUI Grounding with Visually Grounded Reflection

Merged summary

TL;DR - LookAgain is a closed-loop GUI grounding model that treats a predicted click coordinate as a revisable hypothesis, re-examining it with fresh visual evidence before committing. It targets the failure modes that break single-shot grounders — small targets, dense controls, and out-of-distribution UIs — which are the bottleneck for reliable GUI agents.

  • Reframes grounding as a multi-turn predict → look-again → refine loop with two primitives: locate (emit a coordinate, render a marker on the image, append a local patch of the predicted region) and confirm (accept or reject the hypothesis and terminate).
  • The key distinction from prior iterative zoom-in methods: refinement operates over the previous prediction as a spatial prior, not merely over the inspected view, and visual evidence is gathered to scrutinize an already-committed coordinate rather than to support the next one.
  • Training is two-stage: SFT on constructed reflective trajectories as a cold start, then GRPO using terminal grounding correctness as the sole reward — no dense process supervision.
  • Reported state-of-the-art on both refusal-aware and general GUI grounding benchmarks, with ablations supporting the framework's components (specific numbers not provided in the abstract).
