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

How memory changes (T2 operations)
Revision · Rule-based state correction
Visibility- and uncertainty-aware causal updates revise occupancy evidence. For GEM-Occ, this specifically supports fixed-rule correction of stored state of semantic Gaussian occupancy and free-space evidence.
Reorganization · Memory-level migration (short- to long-term)
Evidence is fused from local caches into room submaps and a building graph. For GEM-Occ, this specifically supports migration between memory tiers of semantic Gaussian occupancy and free-space evidence.
Consolidation · Merging & deduplication
During operation, GEM-Occ applies merging or deduplication of overlapping entries to semantic Gaussian occupancy and free-space evidence; the memory state changes while the governing update policy remains fixed.
Forgetting · Discrete eviction
During operation, GEM-Occ applies explicit deletion or eviction of stored items to semantic Gaussian occupancy and free-space evidence; the memory state changes while the governing update policy remains fixed.
