KISS-GS is a modular compression pipeline for 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) scenes that separates compression from training. It first compacts a vanilla 3DGS scene by 15.7× using state‑of‑the‑art pruning, then encodes the result into the SOG‑XT image‑based format, achieving an additional 6.6× reduction. Optional encoding‑aware fine‑tuning can further cut the size by 2.2×, yielding total reductions of 85× to 319× on standard benchmarks while enabling web‑native decoding.

The paper introduces an observation‑Gram matrix that captures how each Gaussian in a 3D Gaussian Splatting model is viewed from training camera directions. This matrix serves as a distortion metric, enabling closed‑form degree reduction, Lagrangian rate‑distortion degree allocation, and matrix‑weighted vector quantisation. When applied to the Compressed3D framework, the metric improves PSNR by 0.49 dB before fine‑tuning and still yields a 0.32 dB gain at matched bitrate without any training images, while a training‑free stack built on the metric is 15% smaller than the image‑free GSICO at equal quality on Mip‑NeRF 360.

CC-4DGS introduces a storage‑efficient framework for dynamic 4D Gaussian splatting by replacing large multi‑resolution hash tables with a deterministic dense hash encoding and compact neural decoders, reducing deformation storage to 1–3 MB per scene. It also compresses canonical point‑cloud attributes through conditional autoencoding, selective quantization, and residual codebooks, achieving 3–5× reduction in point‑cloud size with negligible quality loss. The combined approach maintains real‑time rendering performance while lowering total storage to 20–30 MB, matching state‑of‑the‑art reconstruction accuracy on N3DV and Technicolor Light Field datasets.

The paper introduces COSA-GS, a new compression method for 3D Gaussian Splatting that avoids spatial aggregation by using anchor-wise causal factorization. It builds a compact learnable anchor latent from geometry context and fuses it with the geometry context to create an anchor context for attribute coding, employing only linear transformations and activations. The method is trained with rate–distortion optimization, adaptive Gaussian pruning, and quantization-aware training to ensure bit‑exact entropy decoding across platforms, achieving state‑of‑the‑art compression performance with fast, consistent cross‑platform decoding.
