VoxelTTO is a feed‑forward framework that reconstructs 3D Gaussian splatting scenes from multiple images by aggregating dense image features into a global voxel representation and decoding Gaussians from voxel features, thereby eliminating the pixel‑to‑Gaussian correspondence. It incorporates test‑time optimization with lightweight LoRA modules to adapt to known camera parameters while keeping the pretrained visual foundation model frozen. The method replaces standard rasterization with stochastic solid volume rendering, improving geometric fidelity, and demonstrates superior RGB‑D novel‑view synthesis and camera‑pose estimation on Replica, Tanks and Temples, and DTU datasets.
AESplat is a new pose‑free feed‑forward 3D Gaussian Splatting framework that improves rendering quality by decoupling view‑independent and view‑dependent appearance modeling. It directly extracts the base view‑independent appearance from input images and predicts higher‑order spherical harmonic coefficients with a shallow MLP that incorporates 3D‑aware inductive biases. Experiments on several datasets show AESplat outperforms state‑of‑the‑art methods, achieving up to 0.8 dB higher PSNR than NAS3R and 1.1 dB over DepthSplat on RealEstate10K.

Projector-camera (ProCams) systems achieve active scene perception and controllable appearance manipulation via structured illumination, serving as a core infrastructure for spatial augmented reality, projection mapping, and surface reflectance acquisition. Existing inverse-rendering methods for ProCams deliver high-fidelity results but rely on time-consuming per-scene optimization, while mainstream feed-forward 3D reconstruction models produce baked appearance that cannot adapt to spatially varying projector illumination.

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.
Free-viewpoint 3D scene media is increasingly important for immersive applications, yet practical capture often suffers from severe view sparsity and motion blur. Although neural rendering has advanced sparse-view synthesis, existing blur-aware methods typically require substantial multi-view redundancy, accurate camera poses, or costly per-scene optimization.
ReCoSplat is an online feed‑forward Gaussian splatting model that can synthesize novel views from a stream of observations, handling both posed and unposed inputs and optionally using camera intrinsics. It introduces a Render‑and‑Compare module that renders the current scene from the viewpoint of the incoming observation and compares it to the observation, providing a stable conditioning signal to mitigate the mismatch caused by predicted camera poses. A hybrid KV‑cache compression strategy further reduces memory usage, enabling the model to process long sequences efficiently while achieving state‑of‑the‑art performance on online view synthesis tasks.

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 PhGS, a post‑hoc pruning and refinement pipeline for single‑view feed‑forward 3D Gaussian Splatting models. It keeps the base network frozen and applies importance‑score‑based pruning followed by a lightweight recurrent refinement module to reduce spatial redundancy while maintaining rendering quality. The method is backbone‑agnostic, integrates seamlessly with existing baselines, and allows flexible inference‑time keep ratios for different application needs.
