Abstract:Long-term memory for multimodal agents remains challenging, as it must preserve fine-grained visual evidence while tracking entity evolution across sessions. Existing abstraction-based memories compress images into text, often discarding visually discriminative details, whereas pixel-preserving memories retain raw observations but struggle to reliably associate diverse observations with persistent entity identities and track their evolving states. To address these limitations, we propose MHG-Mem, a multimodal hypergraph memory that jointly organizes entity identity, state evolution, and provenance to visual evidence. Specifically, MHG-Mem represents distinct entity mentions and their observed facts as individual nodes, grouping identity-consistent mentions and facts through occurrence hyperedges. It then synthesizes aspect-specific evolution states from these grouped observations and links them to supporting entities, facts, and source evidence through evolutionary and evidential hyperedges. To navigate this structured memory, we introduce hypergraph-based agentic search, which adaptively selects an entry layer, traverses typed hyperedges across memory levels, and inspects source observations when fine-grained verification is required. These designs support both detailed visual verification and reasoning over cross-session state changes. Extensive experiments across three benchmarks demonstrate the effectiveness of MHG-Mem, improving performance by 8.20-9.98% over the strongest baseline.
