Q-GeoMem: Question-Guided Geometric Memory for Video Spatial Reasoning

Video spatial reasoning requires accumulating viewpoint-dependent evidence over time while retaining information useful to the question being asked. Existing spatial video-language models improve geometric perception and long-range context modeling, but often treat memory as a generic temporal cache, which can introduce redundant or irrelevant evidence and weaken long-horizon reasoning. We propose Q-GeoMem, a question-guided geometric memory framework for video spatial reasoning. Q-GeoMem injects camera-conditioned geometry into visual tokens and maintains two complementary memories: a Fine-Grained Context Bank for recent dense features and camera states, and a Semantic-Geometric Evidence Bank for compact long-range evidence. For each candidate frame, a calibrated Q-Former estimates question relevance, while novelty and evidence utility are recomputed with respect to the active evidence bank. The resulting relevance-novelty utility controls capacity-based replacement and serves as an attention bias during memory reading. During reasoning, both memories are read before update and adaptively fused with the current frame representation. Extensive experiments across two in-domain and five out-of-distribution benchmarks, and controlled memory analyses show that Q-GeoMem achieves state-of-the-art performance in the evaluated settings and validate the effectiveness of question-guided geometric evidence selection.
