3DGS-HPC: Distractor-free 3D Gaussian Splatting with Hybrid Patch-wise Classification

3DGS-HPC is a framework that improves 3D Gaussian Splatting for novel view synthesis by mitigating transient distractors such as moving objects and varying shadows. It combines a patch‑wise classification strategy that uses local spatial consistency for robust region‑level decisions with a hybrid classification metric that adaptively integrates photometric and perceptual cues. Experiments show that this approach outperforms existing methods in reducing distractor effects and enhancing 3DGS quality.

Per-View Gaussian Predictions Enable Training-Free Distractor Filtering in Feed-Forward 3DGS

The paper presents a training‑free filtering method for feed‑forward 3D Gaussian Splatting that removes transient distractors from 3D reconstructions. By excluding each input’s per‑view Gaussians and re‑rendering the scene, the method identifies inconsistent content through feature similarity and reconstruction error reduction. The approach improves novel‑view quality across multiple models and benchmarks while preserving clean scenes.

WilLaGS: Latent-Conditional 3D Appearance Fields for Robust Gaussian Splatting In-the-Wild

WilLaGS introduces a unified framework that enhances 3D Gaussian Splatting for in-the-wild scenes by learning a continuous global appearance manifold with a β‑VAE and generating dynamic Tri‑Plane features for spatially‑varying local illumination. It also incorporates a self‑supervised perceptual masking mechanism using a Teacher‑Student EMA architecture to suppress transient artifacts and identify inconsistent regions. Experiments on multiple datasets show that WilLaGS achieves state‑of‑the‑art reconstruction quality and novel view synthesis while preserving real‑time rendering efficiency.

Compact Feed-Forward 3D Gaussians via Saliency-Guided Primitive Merging

The paper introduces a structure‑aware merging pipeline that consolidates per‑pixel 3D Gaussian primitives from any feed‑forward reconstruction method into a compact, content‑adaptive Gaussian set. By grouping spatially coherent Gaussians with adaptive superpixel segmentation guided by a saliency map, compressing clusters via a learned encoder, and merging representations across views using geometric overlap and feature similarity, the method reduces the number of Gaussians to about one‑twentieth of the original while preserving visual quality. A level‑of‑detail decoder allows controllable resolution, and the pipeline operates as a backbone‑agnostic post‑processing module, improving robustness and rendering efficiency.

GS-VLA: Plug-and-Play Viewpoint Canonicalization for Frozen VLA Policies via Gaussian Splatting

GS‑VLA introduces a lightweight, plug‑and‑play framework that uses a 4 M‑parameter 3D‑Gaussian canonicalizer to adapt frozen Vision‑Language‑Action (VLA) policies to viewpoint shifts without retraining the policy. By treating viewpoint changes as a localized novel‑view synthesis problem under a locality assumption, the method normalizes observations through a scene‑ and policy‑independent disocclusion task. Experiments on the LIBERO benchmark demonstrate that GS‑VLA recovers a large portion of performance lost due to camera displacement, improving results across different policy architectures, unseen task suites, and perturbation scales. whyItMatters":"The approach offers a computationally efficient alternative to costly fine‑tuning or generative augmentation, enabling robust VLA deployment in real‑world settings where camera configurations may vary."

CoGeo-GS: Concept-Driven and Geometry-Aware Multi-Object Removal in 3D Scenes

CoGeo-GS is a concept-driven framework for controllable multi-object removal in 3D scenes. It assigns concept-aware semantic tags to 3D Gaussians, allowing flexible object selection and reducing interference between foreground and background within a single optimization stage. The method also introduces a geometry-aware completion pipeline that uses monocular depth priors, diffusion-based refinement, and boundary-aligned blending, along with a geometry-regularized refinement strategy to stabilize reconstruction and preserve multi-view consistency.
