Evaluating language-guided mobile agents has recently shifted from rule-based to model-based approaches to achieve scalable and automated assessments. However, existing holistic evaluation paradigms process entire trajectories at once, leading to substantial context overload. Moreover, they primarily focus on task completion while overlooking operational safety. To address these limitations, we introduce CRATE, a novel two-stage VLM-as-judge framework for automated mobile agent evaluation that is compatible with both open- and closed-source models. Leveraging a step-level consequence reasoning mechanism, CRATE independently extracts task-relevant visual clues and infers action-conditioned state changes at each step. The resulting step-level textual evidence is then synthesized through trajectory-level aggregation to deliver an evidence-grounded evaluation of task completion. Building upon this evaluation scheme, we further extend CRATE to CRATE-S for operational safety assessment. Extensive experiments validate the effectiveness and robustness of both CRATE and CRATE-S. Powered by Qwen2.5-VL-72B-Instruct, CRATE achieves an F1-score of 0.833 on AndroidWorld (outperforming SPA-Bench by 20%), while CRATE-S reaches an F1-score of 0.697 on MobileRisk, demonstrating strong alignment with benchmark ground truths.

This study developed a hybrid computer vision method to quantify exposed skin from images for dermal exposure assessment. Using 170 indoor-painting images, Mask R-CNN first identified human subjects and removed background interference; a color-based algorithm then segmented exposed skin. The resulting exposed-skin-to-body pixel ratios showed approximately 80% agreement with human estimates. The approach demonstrates a scalable way to extract semi-quantitative exposure information from images, with future extensions to body-part recognition, PPE detection, and video-based exposure analysis.
Artificial Intelligence (AI), especially Generative AI (GenAI), adoption has increased in industries significantly in recent years. However, the use of these models may also expose systems to new forms of cyberattacks by different malicious actors -- adversarial prompt attack (APA) being one of the most prominent examples of such threats. This paper presents the implementation of an Adversarial Prompting Framework (APF) for a comprehensive assessment of AI safety. The framework systematically evaluates the resilience of the AI model through the generation of structured adversarial prompts at multiple sophistication levels, from direct harmful requests to advanced encoding-based attacks. Our implementation demonstrates the practical application of this methodology in enterprise environments, providing automated testing capabilities with quantitative security assessment metrics. The results indicate significant variations in the model vulnerabilities across different attack vectors, with encoded prompts presenting the highest success rates in bypassing safety mechanisms.
Vision-language models (VLMs) are increasingly deployed in consumer, medical, financial, and enterprise applications. This broad deployment expands the safety surface: risks can arise from multimodal question answering, assistant responses, and cross-modal composition, while moderation policies may vary across products, regions, and deployment stages. Most existing guardrails either rely on fixed taxonomies or target only a narrow set of interaction settings, which limits their adaptability when safety rules change at deployment time. We present \textbf{SingGuard}, a policy-adaptive multimodal guardrail model family for safety assessment in multimodal conversations. SingGuard treats the active policy as a runtime input: given natural-language rules, it checks the target content against the active policy rule by rule and predicts both the safety label and the triggered rule. To balance efficiency and interpretability, SingGuard supports fast, hybrid, and slow inference regimes along a fast-to-slow reasoning spectrum, ranging from direct safety judgments to policy-grounded deliberation. We further optimize this behavior with fast--slow decoupled reinforcement learning. We also introduce \textbf{SingGuard-Bench}, a multimodal guardrail benchmark with 56{,}340 examples spanning 80+ fine-grained risk types across multimodal QA, adversarial attack, and dynamic-rule evaluation settings, including cross-modal joint-risk cases where each modality is harmless in isolation but their composition implies unsafe intent. Across six benchmark families (35 datasets), SingGuard achieves state-of-the-art average F1 in every family. Dynamic-rule evaluation further shows improved policy-following accuracy from 0.6465 to 0.7415 under runtime policy shifts. Our code is available at https://github.com/inclusionAI/Sing-Guard.
Agent skills have become a practical way to extend large language model agents, but the growing skill ecosystem still lacks a reliable way to judge whether a skill is worth deploying. Existing evaluation methods remain largely anchored to fixed task suites, assessing skills through performance on predefined tasks and environments. As skill marketplaces expand, this paradigm becomes inadequate: fixed suites can conflate a skill's marginal contribution with backbone strength and miss its value when tasks fall outside the skill's intended scope. We introduce SkillAudit, an end-to-end framework for skill-centered assessment that takes an arbitrary agent skill as input and automatically generates a comprehensive, multi-dimensional evaluation report spanning utility, efficiency/cost, and safety. SkillAudit focuses on the skill artifact itself and constructs capability-aligned evaluation tasks directly from the skill package. The generated tasks are conducted in isolated sandbox environments to collect execution evidence, followed by automated checks with LLM-based judging to produce auditable results. To dissect the agent skills, we propose the baseline comparison principle to measure utility and efficiency/cost, and introduce a two-stage detection paradigm combining static semantic analysis with dynamic runtime verification to assess safety risks. After scanning top-ranked real-world skill packages spanning 23 occupational categories, we found that over 7% of skills are at risky status.
