World Models vs. Node Memory in Partial Observability
Grid or Nodes? Probing Object Memory in World Models Under Partial Observability
FloWM's grid memory outperforms node memory in object recall under partial observability, with higher scores and efficiency in tracking unseen objects. Node memory struggles with motion beyond five velocities, while FloWM's predictions improve recall despite no visual input.

grid is read changes its score: a single-cell probe finds 66% of out-of-view blocks, while FloWM's own probe 89%. FloWM also scores 8 points higher in view although no frame is shown, which we attribute to its write-back of its own predictions. Out of view, the tracker reaches FloWM's range in 14KB against 5.6MB, with no probe. On diagonal motion, outside its five velocities, FloWM finds 11% of blocks even after fine
