SMORE Adds Revisable External Memory to Frozen Geometry Models, Cuts Depth Error Up to 58%

SMORE equips frozen geometry foundation models with a revisable external memory for long-horizon inference, addressing error accumulation in windowed feed-forward models and the inability of streaming models to revise earlier estimates. Inspired by hippocampal associative memory, it stores, retrieves, verifies and revises past observations against new evidence. Across 8 geometry models and 5 datasets (pose estimation, multi-view depth, point-cloud reconstruction, SLAM, novel view synthesis), SMORE cuts multi-view depth error by up to 58% (e.g., DUST3R Replica overall error 12.02cm→3.55cm) and achieves 0.029m ATE RMSE on 7-Scenes long-horizon SLAM, beating many calibrated/uncalibrated SLAM baselines.
