Geometric-Photometric Event-based 3D Gaussian Ray Tracing

The paper introduces GPERT, a framework that separates event-based 3D Gaussian Splatting into two rendering branches: event-by-event geometry rendering and snapshot-based radiance rendering. By employing ray-tracing and warped event images, GPERT balances accuracy and temporal resolution, achieving state‑of‑the‑art results on real‑world datasets and competitive performance on synthetic data. The method operates without pretrained models or COLMAP initialization, offers flexible event selection, and produces sharp reconstructions of scene edges with rapid training.

PIVOT: A Multi-Trajectory Dataset and Testbed for Pose, Intrinsics, and Novel Viewpoint Evaluation in Real-World 3D Reconstruction

PIVOT is a new multi‑trajectory dataset and evaluation framework that captures real‑world scenes with diverse camera paths, preserving both sensor‑derived measured poses and COLMAP‑optimized poses along with calibrated and optimized intrinsics. It defines three benchmark families—seen vs. unseen trajectory generalization, measured vs. optimized pose sensitivity, and calibrated vs. optimized intrinsics sensitivity—and introduces a directed pose‑space Chamfer distance to assess pose coverage. The first version of PIVOT includes five scenes recorded with a DJI Mini 4 Pro and offers an open processing and Nerfstudio‑based evaluation toolchain, revealing a consistent quality gap between held‑out and unseen trajectories and significant sensitivity to pose source and camera intrinsics.
