ReflectWorld-MM is proposed, an entity-oriented multimodal memory system for open-ended video streams that achieves the best accuracy on all six long-video and lifelong-memory benchmarks, outperforming strong memory agents and a frontier model.
Abstract
Building assistants that can continually watch the world, remember what they see, and reason over their accumulated experience is a long-standing goal, and recently multimodal agents equipped with long-term memory over video streams have attracted increasing interest. Unfortunately, existing systems either keep their memory inside the model context or in a flat feature store, and organize it around frames rather than around the persistent entities a stream is really about, which confines them to bounded videos and weakens their ability to track who and what reappears over time. In this paper, we propose ReflectWorld-MM, an entity-oriented multimodal memory system for open-ended video streams. It consists of three parts. The first is a perception front-end that turns an audiovisual stream into entity-resolved observations under a bounded short-term memory. The second is a hierarchical long-term memory, grounded in human memory theory, that couples a multi-scale episodic memory, an evolving entity-centric semantic memory, and a procedural memory. The third is a complete realization, built for real-world operation, that ingests arbitrary streams and plugs into off-the-shelf assistants. Across six long-video and lifelong-memory benchmarks, ReflectWorld-MM achieves the best accuracy on all six, outperforming strong memory agents and a frontier model.
GROVE is introduced, a training-free framework that supports both behaviors with one memory grown causally from a continuous video stream, and achieves the best results among the compared methods.

Light-Omni is introduced, a multimodal agent framework for reflexive and lightweight video understanding that achieves semantically aligned retrieval and reflexive responses while avoiding iterative reasoning and serves as a memory system to enhance both the performance and efficiency of existing MLLMs.

Dynamic Hub-and-Spoke Memory is proposed, a training-free framework that represents distant history as structured textual memory while preserving the recent frames as visual tokens for fine-grained perception in streaming video understanding.

FTA-Mem is proposed, a structured memory framework for low-density long-term dialogue that uses Boundary-preserving Window Segmentation to form coherent situation fragments, and constructs Fact-Time-Affect Memory Units that jointly encode factual content, temporal grounding, and affective context.

This work ground perceptual memory in the model, decomposing recall into two subproblems: a vision-language model grounds the referent in context (what and where), and a dedicated encoder extracts an identity key (who), stored as one inline token read by attention at generation with no external round-trip.
EM^2Mem is proposed, an event-centric multimodal memory framework that binds heterogeneous evidence to event anchors during memory construction, enabling compact evidence readout over grounded multimodal events rather than modality-specific fragments.
