Building memory is essential for long-horizon planning in zero-shot embodied navigation. Detector-centric scene graphs often compress observations into sparse nodes, discarding fine-grained visual evidence and accumulating noise, while 3D reconstruction-based methods remain computationally prohibitive.

Mem2Ego introduces a vision‑language model for embodied navigation that combines global memory with egocentric visual inputs. By adaptively retrieving task‑relevant cues from a global memory module and aligning them with local perception, the framework improves spatial reasoning and decision‑making over long horizons. The method outperforms prior state‑of‑the‑art approaches on the HSSD and HM3D benchmarks and shows strong performance on a real robot.

DGSG-Mind introduces a hybrid instance-aware 3D Gaussian dynamic scene graph system that integrates open‑vocabulary semantic information into dynamic 3D scene representations. By coupling a probabilistic voxel grid with explicit 3D Gaussians, it achieves robust cross‑modal instance fusion, incremental semantic mapping, and dynamic change handling through Gaussian‑based relocalization and masked refinement. The system builds a hierarchical scene graph and a 3D Gaussian Mind for multimodal reasoning, achieving state‑of‑the‑art zero‑shot 3D visual grounding and strong performance in open‑vocabulary semantic segmentation and scene reconstruction, and is demonstrated on real‑world robots.
