arXiv:2510. 01483v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Vision-language models (VLMs) demonstrate strong image-level scene understanding, but reasoning over long egocentric video remains costly: because VLMs maintain no persistent memory or explicit spatial representation, all sampled frames must be re-processed for every new query.

MINT is a foundation model that directly predicts world-space two-hand trajectories from egocentric RGB video, jointly estimating camera motion, hand states, and hand presence in a single spatiotemporal representation. It uses an open-source labeling pipeline, EGOPIPELINE, to generate large-scale pseudo-labels for pretraining, followed by fine-tuning on a small set of high-quality joint annotations. The model outperforms existing multi-stage approaches in accuracy and speed, and generalizes zero‑shot to unseen egocentric datasets.

The paper introduces SceneLM, a vision‑language model that maintains an open‑vocabulary 3D scene map using only a structured text list of objects as persistent memory. The model updates this textual map by adding, editing, and removing objects for each input image, learning the process through supervision tasks and an automatic annotation pipeline. Evaluations on language‑grounded retrieval and localization benchmarks show competitive performance with traditional mapping systems while producing a 6‑12× more compact representation, and the model can run online on an edge device such as a quadruped robot.
