3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) has recently enabled real-time novel view synthesis with impressive quality. However, it struggles to recover accurate surfaces under limited viewpoints and due to the inherent irregularity of Gaussian primitives.

CoMVS‑GS is a surface‑reconstruction framework that fuses Multi‑View Stereo (MVS) with 3D Gaussian splatting. It initializes Gaussian primitives from dense MVS points, uses PatchMatch‑3DGS mutual supervision to refine depths and normals, and replaces voxel‑based meshing with a Delaunay graph‑cut pipeline. Experiments on DTU, GauU‑Scene V2, and MatrixCity demonstrate competitive object‑level results and improved geometric accuracy and mesh compactness in outdoor scenes while preserving high rendering quality.
MEGA is a new framework that extracts object-level, watertight meshes from 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) scenes. It uses a segment-then-mesh approach, leveraging Spatial Visual Distillation (SVD) to sample diverse camera views of each segmented object and train a mesh reconstruction model with photometric supervision. Experiments on popular benchmarks show that MEGA outperforms existing methods in accurately recovering object-level 3D occupancy and supports complex physical interactions by combining high-quality meshes with photorealistic 3DGS rendering.

InceptionGS is a method that improves large‑scale Gaussian splatting for scenes captured with unstructured view sampling. It starts from an initial Gaussian splatting and selectively repairs areas affected by sparse views by integrating scene‑ and view‑adaptive generative priors, while keeping well‑covered regions unchanged. Experiments on real‑world scenes show that this hybrid reconstruction‑generation approach yields higher‑fidelity results than existing methods.

ToCo-Mesh is a dynamic mesh reconstruction framework that preserves topology consistency while achieving high‑fidelity geometry from multi‑view temporal images. It uses a dual‑mesh representation, coupling a canonical template mesh to time‑varying coarse guide meshes via barycentric parameterization, and applies error‑driven split‑and‑merge operations on the template to refine detail. A Surface‑Aligned 2DGS module anchors flattened Gaussians to mesh faces, using rendered normals to guide fine‑tuning and suppress surface irregularities, resulting in photorealistic rendering.

The paper introduces SVRecon, a generalizable neural surface reconstruction framework that uses sparse volumetric representations to achieve high-resolution 3D reconstruction. It employs a two-stage architecture: first predicting occupied voxels with an occupancy network, then rendering only within those regions using specialized sparse algorithms. This approach allows reconstruction at resolutions up to 512³ on 32 GB hardware, producing smoother and more precise surfaces, especially in sparse-view scenarios.

CompactSplat introduces a feedforward scene reconstruction method that adaptively allocates 3D Gaussian primitives based on texture-guided spatial partitioning and hierarchical sampling. By concentrating dense Gaussians in complex regions and using expanded primitives for flat areas, it reduces redundancy and better captures planar geometry. The framework also allows dynamic sparsity control during inference, enabling trade-offs between rendering quality and memory usage without retraining.
