LOCI：面向流式世界模型的空间线性记忆架构

View PDF HTML (experimental)

Abstract:When a camera revisits a previously observed region, a video world model should reproduce what was there before. This requires both remembering past observations and retrieving the right one for the current viewpoint. Key-value caches preserve visual detail but grow with video length; recurrent memory is compact but compresses history into a fixed-size state, so individual past observations are no longer directly accessible. We introduce LOCI, a hybrid spatial-memory architecture that keeps both representations. In half of the transformer blocks, main attention keeps a key-value cache of past observations; in the other half, it is restricted to the current chunk and complemented by a recurrent linear-attention memory whose reads and writes are conditioned on projective camera geometry, so viewpoint enters both memory addressing and stored content. Recurrent readouts flow into subsequent cache-backed blocks and supply their queries with accumulated scene context. On the public MIND memory benchmark and on held-out recorded trajectories, LOCI reproduces revisited content more faithfully than representative world models and a same-recipe full-softmax model; with full history, it lowers peak memory at equal length by about 30% relative to full softmax. With a bounded bank of retained observations, it streams long videos at constant memory and remains more faithful than full softmax under the same budget.
