Evidencepartial
existing approaches rely on greedy frontier selection and passive spatial memory, leading to inefficient behaviors such as local oscillation and redundant revisiting.
Implicationpartial
Directly stated in the abstract as the problem being addressed, with specific behaviors named.
Verificationpartial
partial
Evidencepartial
We argue that this stems from a lack of metacognitive capabilities: the agent cannot monitor its exploration progress, diagnose strategy failures, or adapt accordingly.
Implicationpartial
Directly stated as the core argument in the abstract, though it is presented as the authors' analysis.
Verificationpartial
partial
Evidencepartial
To address this, we propose MetaNav, a metacognitive navigation agent integrating spatial memory, history-aware planning, and reflective correction.
Implicationpartial
Directly stated as the proposed solution in the abstract.

Evidencepartial
Spatial memory builds a persistent 3D semantic map.
Implicationpartial
Directly stated in the abstract as a component of the method.

Evidencepartial
History-aware planning penalizes revisiting to improve efficiency.
Implicationpartial
Directly stated in the abstract as a component of the method.
Verificationpartial

Evidencepartial
Reflective correction detects stagnation and uses an LLM to generate corrective rules that guide future frontier selection.
Implicationpartial
Directly stated in the abstract as a component of the method.

Experiments on GOAT-Bench, HM3D-OVON, and A-EQA show that MetaNav achieves state-of-the-art performance
