F4Splat introduces a feed‑forward predictive densification strategy for 3D Gaussian splatting that allocates Gaussians based on a densification‑score guided by spatial complexity and multi‑view overlap. The method predicts per‑region scores to estimate required Gaussian density, enabling explicit control over the total Gaussian budget without retraining. This adaptive allocation reduces redundancy in simple regions and minimizes duplicate Gaussians across overlapping views, yielding compact yet high‑quality 3D representations and superior novel‑view synthesis performance with fewer Gaussians.

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.

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.

Spackle is a lightweight residual learning framework designed to improve large-view single-image novel view synthesis (NVS) by mitigating capacity competition in hybrid decoupled systems that combine 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) and diffusion models. It operates in three stages: predicting base 3DGS attributes, automatically identifying poorly reconstructed regions, and learning a residual 3DGS focused on those areas. During inference, Spackle merges the baseline and augmented Gaussians to produce high-fidelity novel views, achieving state‑of‑the‑art performance on large-view-deviation cases.

ReSplat introduces a recurrent Gaussian splatting model that iteratively refines 3D Gaussians using the rendering error as a feedback signal, avoiding explicit gradient computation. The method starts from a compact reconstruction in a subsampled space, producing far fewer Gaussians than prior per‑pixel models, which reduces computational cost. Experiments on multiple datasets, view counts, and resolutions show state‑of‑the‑art performance with faster rendering speeds.

Feed-forward 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) enables scalable scene reconstruction without per-scene optimization, yet produces dense Gaussians that are costly to store and transmit. Existing feed-forward Gaussian compression methods formulate decoding as deterministic representation recovery, which becomes inadequate at low bitrates when high-frequency textures and view-dependent appearance are discarded.

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 then selectively repairs regions that suffer from sparse views by incorporating adaptive generative priors, while preserving quality in well‑sampled areas. Experiments on real‑world scenes show that this balanced reconstruction‑generation approach yields higher‑fidelity results and works broadly across unstructured imagery.
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.
