OmniParser by Microsoft

Microsoft’s OmniParser introduces a new standard in UI parsing by converting screenshots into structured, actionable data, making it a powerful asset for web automation. Licensed under MIT, OmniParser excels at interpreting complex UI elements, even surpassing GPT-4V in parsing accuracy. Designed for a wide range of applications, it captures interactable regions and icon functionality from UI screenshots across devices, transforming unstructured visual data into structured insights for large language model (LLM)-based agents.

OmniParser is built on a specialized model hub, combining a finetuned YOLOv8 for icon detection with a finetuned BLIP-2 model for function description. This dual-model approach ensures accurate, actionable output from varied screenshots, enabling highly responsive and intelligent web agents. Its datasets, automatically curated from popular web sources, highlight interactive elements and provide icon-function pairings, enhancing UI agent responsiveness and functionality.

Key Features:

• Screen Parsing: Converts UI screenshots into structured data with precise location and functionality of clickable elements.

• Advanced Model Hub: Integrates YOLOv8 and BLIP-2 models fine-tuned on UI elements and interactions.

• High Parsing Accuracy: Outperforms existing models in interpreting UI layouts and actionable items for automation.

• Cross-Platform Compatibility: Effective on both desktop and mobile screenshots.

• Flexible Web Automation: Ideal for building automated, LLM-powered GUI agents.
