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.

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.

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.

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.
