What Limits Virtual Agent Application? OmniBench: A Scalable Multi-Dimensional Benchmark for Essential Virtual Agent Capabilities

Abstract

As multimodal large language models (MLLMs) advance, MLLM-based virtual agents have demonstrated remarkable performance. However, existing benchmarks face significant limitations, including uncontrollable task complexity, extensive manual annotation, and a lack of multidimensional evaluation. In response to these challenges, we introduce OmniBench, a self-generating, graph-based benchmark with an automated pipeline for synthesizing tasks of controllable complexity through subtask composition. To evaluate the diverse capabilities of virtual agents on the graph, we further present OmniEval, a multidimensional evaluation framework that includes subtask-level evaluation, graph-based metrics, and comprehensive tests across 10 capabilities. Our synthesized dataset contains 36k graph-structured tasks across 20 scenarios, achieving a 91% human acceptance rate. Training on our graph-structured data shows that it improves generalization across environments. We conduct multidimensional evaluations for virtual agents, revealing their performance across various capabilities and paving the way for future advancements. Our project is available at https://omni-bench.github.io.
