UNIBROWSE: A Data-to-Agent Framework for Multimodal BrowseComp

arXiv:2607.10557v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal BrowseComp tasks require agents to combine perception, tool use, and long-horizon reasoning over dynamic web content, challenging their ability to handle compositional structure, open-world uncertainty, and multimodal integration across extended interactions. Crucially, real-world multimodal browsing involves three distinct information-flow patterns: text-only, image-to-text, and text-to-image, yet existing data construction methods cover only the text-only and image-to-text patterns, leaving text-to-image largely unaddressed and limiting agent generality and robustness. We introduce UNIBROWSE, a unified data pipeline that for the first time simultaneously generates training data covering all three patterns, augments curated knowledge graphs with live web retrieval for improved fidelity, and introduces a novel metric of exploration degree to filter low-signal instances for efficient reinforcement learning. Through this pipeline, we produce high-quality cold-start tool-use trajectories and exploration-rich QA pairs, and train a 35B-scale agent via supervised fine-tuning and exploration-aware RL.The resulting UNIBROWSE agent achieves state-of-the-art performance on multimodal BrowseComp benchmarks, attaining an average accuracy of 54.4 across five diverse benchmarks -- an improvement of 10.5 points over its base model Qwen3.5-35B-A3B -- and surpassing serveral closed-source agent workflows such as GPT-5 (42.9), Gemini-2.5 Pro (44.8), and Gemini-2.5 Flash (41.3).
