The paper introduces TruncGradGS, a piecewise truncated gradient approach that mitigates gradient vanishing in 3D Gaussian Splatting, enhancing optimization stability and robustness to initializations. It demonstrates consistent improvements over random and COLMAP initializations in both static and dynamic settings. Additionally, the authors highlight limitations of existing dynamic scene benchmarks and present a new synthetic dataset for evaluating dynamic Gaussian Splatting.

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.

Dynamic 4D Gaussian Splatting has emerged as an efficient representation for dynamic novel view synthesis through explicit scene modeling and real-time rendering. However, existing methods typically require dense multi-view videos for sufficient geometric constraints, making capture expensive and limiting sparse-camera deployment.
4D Gaussian Splatting (4DGS) excels in dynamic 3D reconstruction and real-time novel view synthesis via efficient 4D Gaussian representations and parallelizable rendering. However, existing 4DGS approaches rely on a single polynomial to model motion, which limits performance in complex dynamic scenes where high-frequency motion components are prevalent, and fails to ensure long-term stability due to cumulative trajectory drift.

KISS-GS is a modular compression pipeline for 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) scenes that separates compression from training. It first compacts a vanilla 3DGS scene by 15.7× using state‑of‑the‑art pruning, then encodes the result into the SOG‑XT image‑based format, achieving an additional 6.6× reduction. Optional encoding‑aware fine‑tuning can further cut the size by 2.2×, yielding total reductions of 85× to 319× on standard benchmarks while enabling web‑native decoding.
