arXiv:2608.13923v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Open-vocabulary 3D scene graphs provide compact semantic memory for language-guided navigation, but mapped objects are often exposed through a single fused feature or committed semantic label. Such commitment can remove minority yet task-relevant hypotheses from the task-time interface. We present OpenBelief-Nav, an evidence-preserving object memory that retains observation-level phrases, reliability cues, and frame-mask provenance while maintaining separate aggregate geometric and visual representations. Semantically related phrases are consolidated into a vocabulary-independent object belief from which task-specific readouts perform fixed-vocabulary projection or free-form retrieval. On five ScanNet200 and eight Replica scenes, full-belief projection achieves mIoU scores of 0.2742 and 0.2912, compared with 0.2393 and 0.2701 for a matched early-commit readout. Across 78 HM3D-YCB navigation trials, consensus and early-commit retrieval each achieve 60/78 successes, compared with 58/78 for belief-weighted retrieval and 55/78 for DualMap. Across 20 Unitree G1 runs organized as 10 matched evaluation cases, a correction policy permitting at most two verified candidate attempts improves target-confirmation success from 6/10 to 8/10 relative to top-1-only execution. Code will be released upon acceptance at https://openbelief-nav.github.io/.
