3D Gaussian Splatting has achieved remarkable success in photorealistic and efficient rendering, leading to a rapid increase in 3D assets represented by 3D Gaussian primitives. Directly rigging these assets with arbitrary skeleton topologies is highly desirable.
arXiv:2606. 31981v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Creating photorealistic, animatable 3D human avatars from monocular images still largely depends on Linear Blend Skinning (LBS) and parametric body models, which constrain expressivity and often introduce artifacts due to imperfect fitting.
Merging multiple 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) scenes into a single unified Gaussian representation is essential for large-scale 3D mapping and long-term map management. Despite its importance, this area remains underexplored, and existing solutions exhibit several limitations.
arXiv:2607. 00885v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent advances in neural rendering have established 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) as a highly efficient representation for novel view synthesis, enabling fast training and real-time rendering with strong fidelity.
arXiv:2606. 28656v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deformable 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) has emerged as an efficient approach for rendering dynamic scenes in a wide range of 3D applications.
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.
Rigging is inherently task-dependent because the same mesh may require different skeletons and deformation behaviors across animation tasks. In practice, artists often inspect an initial rig and repeatedly edit its skeletal structure and deformation behavior to meet specific animation requirements.

Novel view rendering of large and complex reconstructed scenes is becoming increasingly photorealistic. However, most reconstructions remain static and lack the ambient motion that makes environments immersive.
arXiv:2606. 29379v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Gaussian splatting (GS) has garnered significant attention in VR/AR and digital content creation due to its explicit parameterization and efficient rendering capabilities.
Interactive segmentation of 3D Gaussians offers a compelling opportunity for real-time manipulation of 3D scenes, thanks to the real-time rendering capability of 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS). However, existing methods require a time-consuming per-scene setup - typically tens of seconds or even minutes - before interactive segmentation can begin on a raw 3DGS scene.
arXiv:2605. 04035v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We propose HeadsUp, a scalable feed-forward method for reconstructing high-quality 3D Gaussian heads from large-scale multi-camera setups.
We study 4D generation to synthesize temporally coherent sequences of 3D geometry for animation and content creation. In contrast to existing SDS-based optimization methods and video-driven animation approaches, we adopt a skeleton-driven animation framework aligned with standard industrial pipelines, which enables explicit control and editing.
