How experience becomes memory
Each path is one memory component, traced from what is stored to how it is found again.

Update · Learned update module
A slot state-space model recurrently updates object-centric memory across manipulation frames. For Embodied-SlotSSM, this specifically supports a trained but frozen update module of object-centric slot state.
