While token-level entropy is commonly recognized as effective for credit assignment in text-only reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR), it remains unclear whether this mechanism still holds in visual reasoning. Our controlled study shows that this mechanism collapses in visual reasoning due to the omission of vision-sensitive tokens with naturally low entropy. Although existing multimodal RL methods increasingly acknowledge the importance of visual perception, they struggle to satisfy the inherent demand for interleaving precise perceptual grounding with semantic reasoning, either lacking systematic visual measurements or overlooking that token entropy primarily drives semantic exploration. To address this, we introduce VEPO (Vision-Entropy token-selection for Policy Optimization), an effective RL framework explicitly integrating visual sensitivity with token entropy via a principled multiplicative coupling, where VEPO redirects gradient credit toward tokens which are simultaneously visually grounded and highly informative. Extensive experiments demonstrate VEPO’s leading performance, consistently outperforming the strongest RL baseline at 7B-scale and 3B-scale. Ablations further substantiate the soundness of our method.

Recent advances in large language models (LLMs) have significantly improved automated code generation, enabling tools such as GitHub Copilot and CodeWhisperer to assist developers in a wide range of programming tasks. However, the translation of complex mobile UI designs into high-fidelity front-end code remains a challenging and underexplored area, especially as modern app interfaces become increasingly intricate. In this work, we propose UIOrchestra, a collaborative multi-agent system designed for the AppUI2Code task, which aims to reconstruct static single-page applications from design mockups. UIOrchestra integrates three specialized agents, layout description, code generation, and difference analysis agent that work collaboratively to address the limitations of single-model approaches. To facilitate robust evaluation, we introduce APPUI, the first benchmark dataset for AppUI2Code, constructed through a human-in-the-loop process to ensure data quality and coverage. Experimental results demonstrate that UIOrchestra outperforms existing methods in reconstructing complex app pages and highlight the necessity of multi-agent collaboration for this task. We hope our work will inspire further research on leveraging LLMs for front-end automation. The code and data will be released upon paper acceptance.
