4D dynamic scene understanding requires grounding language to a persistent worldline that binds identity, metric 3D motion, and synchronized multi-view 2D projections. Existing paradigms capture only part of this structure: large multimodal models reason over rich visual evidence but rarely preserve metric topology, while vision-language tracking remains tied to fragmented 2D or 3D outputs and local continuation.

VideoReloc presents a method for long‑term indoor video relocalization that relies on a compact semantic scene graph rather than visual appearance. By adaptively selecting clip lengths based on odometry and object‑motion criteria, the system gathers spatial evidence, verifies poses through object triplets, and refines orientation using box faces and gravity cues. This approach achieves high localization accuracy with a tiny 100 kB map, outperforming traditional appearance‑based methods on RIO10 and ReplicaCAD datasets.
