Fascinating leap in rendering speed, but I'm reminded of Virilio's dromology - the logic of speed in technology. As we accelerate towards 1000+ FPS, what cultural shifts might emerge from this hyper-real temporality? How does it reshape our perception of digital materiality?

OccluGaussian: Occlusion-Aware Gaussian Splatting for Large Scene Reconstruction and Rendering Contributions: • We propose an occlusion-aware scene division strategy that considers the scene layout and camera co-visibilities. The resulting regions barely contain occlusions, and the corresponding training cameras have a higher average contribution, leading to improved reconstruction results. • We present a region-based rendering technique that accelerates 3D Gaussian splatting in large scenes. It eliminates much of the time-consuming processing of invisible 3D Gaussians, boosting rendering speeds without noticeable quality degradation. • We conduct extensive experiments on several large-scene datasets and demonstrate that OccluGaussian achieves superior rendering quality and faster rendering speed compared to previous state-of-the-art methods.

[SIGGRAPH '26] Anchored Temporal Gaussian Splatting for Long Volumetric Video Representation TL;DR: We present ATGS, a novel framework for volumetric video reconstruction that effectively handles long sequences and complex motions. By utilizing time-conditioned anchors and a temporal windowing strategy, ATGS enhances temporal coherence and scalability. Abstract (excerpt): Key insight is that explicitly tracking long term complex motion with individual Gaussian primitives is inherently unstable. Instead, we organize Gaussians around time conditioned anchors that localize their spatial and temporal support, thereby reducing long range motion complexity. We further introduce a temporal windowing strategy to activate only anchors relevant to the queried time, which improves scalability and temporal coherence. In addition, to ensure spatial and temporal stability, we design a compact set of multi level anchor features that encode global features, local spatial features, and local temporal features, jointly constraining Gaussian generation. Extensive experiments demonstrate that ATGS consistently outperforms prior methods on long sequence volumetric videos with complex motions.

4DGT: Learning a 4D Gaussian Transformer Using Real-World Monocular Videos Abstract: We propose 4DGT, a 4D Gaussian-based Transformer model for dynamic scene reconstruction, trained entirely on real-world monocular posed videos. Using 4D Gaussian as an inductive bias, 4DGT unifies static and dynamic components, enabling the modeling of complex, time-varying environments with varying object lifespans. We introduced a novel density control strategy in training, which allows our 4DGT to handle longer space-time input while maintaining efficient rendering at runtime. Our model processes 64 consecutive posed frames in a rolling-window fashion, predicting consistent 4D Gaussians in the scene. Unlike optimization-based methods, 4DGT performs purely feed-forward inference, reducing reconstruction time from hours to seconds and scaling effectively to long video sequences. Trained only on large-scale monocular posed video datasets, 4DGT can significantly outperform prior Gaussian-based networks in real-world videos and achieve on-par accuracy with optimization-based methods on cross-domain videos.

[SIGGRAPH 2025] Photoreal Scene Reconstruction from an Egocentric Device Contributions: 1. We address the importance of employing visual-inertial bundle adjustment (VIBA) that accounts for the rolling-shutter behavior of the RGB camera. This provides a continuous camera trajectory to model pixel movement in neural reconstruction. Our experiments demonstrate that using VIBA consistently improves the novel view quality in Gaussian Splatting by +1 dB in PSNR. 2. We introduce a rasterization-based image formulation pipeline that addresses common artifacts in physical image formation, including rolling shutter, lens shading, exposure, and gain compensation. Our approach is distinct in that we represent image poses as posed pixel arrays sampled from a continuous trajectory, rather than assigning a single camera pose per image, and preserve the merit of Gaussian rasterization. Unlike existing methods that require ray-tracing Gaussians, e.g., [Moenne-Loccoz et al. 2024], our formulation is applicable to general-purpose rasterization-based Gaussian splatting. When applied to 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) [Kerbl et al. 2023], our approach can further enhance reconstruction quality by +1 dB. We outperform existing baselines and demonstrate a substantial quality improvement in handling complex scenes observed by egocentric devices. 3. To reduce the effect of blur from rapid head motion in darker indoor scenes, we propose a strategy of deliberately underexposing input videos during capture, inspired by HDR+ [Hasinoff et al. 2016]. We demonstrate that we can reconstruct high-quality, noise-free scene radiance from noisy, dim input videos, and further render sharp, blur-free videos at a higher dynamic range.

Nvidia announces GAvatar: Animatable 3D Gaussian Avatars with Implicit Mesh Learning paper page: Gaussian splatting has emerged as a powerful 3D representation that harnesses the advantages of both explicit (mesh) and implicit (NeRF) 3D representations. In this paper, we seek to leverage Gaussian splatting to generate realistic animatable avatars from textual descriptions, addressing the limitations (e.g., flexibility and efficiency) imposed by mesh or NeRF-based representations. However, a naive application of Gaussian splatting cannot generate high-quality animatable avatars and suffers from learning instability; it also cannot capture fine avatar geometries and often leads to degenerate body parts. To tackle these problems, we first propose a primitive-based 3D Gaussian representation where Gaussians are defined inside pose-driven primitives to facilitate animation. Second, to stabilize and amortize the learning of millions of Gaussians, we propose to use neural implicit fields to predict the Gaussian attributes (e.g., colors). Finally, to capture fine avatar geometries and extract detailed meshes, we propose a novel SDF-based implicit mesh learning approach for 3D Gaussians that regularizes the underlying geometries and extracts highly detailed textured meshes. Our proposed method, GAvatar, enables the large-scale generation of diverse animatable avatars using only text prompts. GAvatar significantly surpasses existing methods in terms of both appearance and geometry quality, and achieves extremely fast rendering (100 fps) at 1K resolution.

GS^3: Efficient Relighting with Triple Gaussian Splatting Abstract: We present a spatial and angular Gaussian based representation and a triple splatting process, for real-time, high-quality novel lighting-and-view synthesis from multi-view point-lit input images. To describe complex ap pearance, we employ a Lambertian plus a mixture of angular Gaussians as an effective reflectance function for each spatial Gaussian. To generate self-shadow, we splat all spatial Gaussians towards the light source to obtain shadow values, which are further refined by a small multi-layer perceptron. To compensate for other effects like global illumination, another network is trained to compute and add a per-spatial-Gaussian RGB tuple. The effectiveness of our representation is demonstrated on 30 samples with a wide variation in geometry (from solid to fluffy) and appearance (from translucent to anisotropic), as well as using different forms of input data, including rendered images of synthetic/reconstructed objects, photographs captured with a handheld camera and a flash, or from a professional lightstage. We achieve a training time of 40-70 minutes and a rendering speed of 90 fps on a single commodity GPU. Our results compare favorably with state-of-the-art techniques in terms of quality/performance.

$FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg presents TRIPS Trilinear Point Splatting for Real-Time Radiance Field Rendering paper page: Point-based radiance field rendering has demonstrated impressive results for novel view synthesis, offering a compelling blend of rendering quality and computational efficiency. However, also latest approaches in this domain are not without their shortcomings. 3D Gaussian Splatting [Kerbl and Kopanas et al. 2023] struggles when tasked with rendering highly detailed scenes, due to blurring and cloudy artifacts. On the other hand, ADOP [R\"uckert et al. 2022] can accommodate crisper images, but the neural reconstruction network decreases performance, it grapples with temporal instability and it is unable to effectively address large gaps in the point cloud. In this paper, we present TRIPS (Trilinear Point Splatting), an approach that combines ideas from both Gaussian Splatting and ADOP. The fundamental concept behind our novel technique involves rasterizing points into a screen-space image pyramid, with the selection of the pyramid layer determined by the projected point size. This approach allows rendering arbitrarily large points using a single trilinear write. A lightweight neural network is then used to reconstruct a hole-free image including detail beyond splat resolution. Importantly, our render pipeline is entirely differentiable, allowing for automatic optimization of both point sizes and positions. Our evaluation demonstrate that TRIPS surpasses existing state-of-the-art methods in terms of rendering quality while maintaining a real-time frame rate of 60 frames per second on readily available hardware. This performance extends to challenging scenarios, such as scenes featuring intricate geometry, expansive landscapes, and auto-exposed footage.$

[NeurIPS '24] DreamMesh4D: Video-to-4D Generation with Sparse-Controlled Gaussian-Mesh Hybrid Representation Abstract (excerpt) We introduce DreamMesh4D, a novel framework that combines mesh representation with sparse-controlled deformation technique to generate high-quality 4D object from a monocular video. To overcome the limitation of classical texture representation, we bind Gaussian splats to the surface of the triangular mesh for differentiable optimization of both the texture and mesh vertices. In particular, DreamMesh4D begins with a coarse mesh provided by a single image based 3D generation method. Sparse points are then uniformly sampled across the surface of the mesh, and are used to build a deformation graph to drive the motion of the 3D object for the sake of computational efficiency and providing additional constraint. For each step, transformations of sparse control points are predicted using a deformation network, and the mesh vertices as well as the bound surface Gaussians are deformed via a geometric skinning algorithm. The skinning algorithm is a hybrid approach combining LBS (linear blending skinning) and DQS (dual-quaternion skinning), mitigating drawbacks associated with both approaches. The static surface Gaussians and mesh vertices as well as the dynamic deformation network are learned via reference view photometric loss, score distillation loss as well as other regularization losses in a two-stage manner. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our method outperforms prior video-to-4D generation methods in terms of rendering quality and spatial-temporal consistency.

We plan to write a full blog post on our 3D/4DGS journey soon. 3D Gaussian Splatting #GaussianSplatting #inria #radiancefields #ir #aeonx #rgbw #idatronic #ximea #sibr #hdri #60fps More info here - Higher Quality Videos:
