Large Vision-Language Models (VLMs) have already been applied to the understanding of Graphical User Interfaces (GUIs) and have achieved notable results. However, existing VLMs often overly rely on internal text-based knowledge while neglecting visual inputs. This imbalance may lead models to produce answers that do not align with the visual content in GUI comprehension tasks. Such inaccuracies are termed as ‘hallucinations’ where models generate incorrect or illogical responses upon visual verification against GUI elements. These errors result in misinterpretations and diminish the model’s practical utility in applied settings. To address these issues, we introduce VGA, a fine-tuned model designed for comprehensive GUI understanding. Our model aims to balance attention image and text to enhance interpretation and reduce hallucinations. We construct a Vision Question Answering (VQA) dataset of 63.8k high-quality examples with our propose *Referent Method*, focusing on response with visual content of images. We then design a two-stage fine-tuning method to enhance both the model’s accuracy to extract information from image content and alignment with human intent. Experiments show that our approach enhances the model’s ability to extract information from images and achieves state-of-the-art results in GUI understanding tasks. https://github.com/Linziyang1999/VGA-visual-GUI-assistant
