Projection-Volume Fidelity Divergence: Diagnosing and Controlling Optimization Drift in Sparse-View 3D Gaussian Tomography

Sparse-view computed tomography is a severely ill-posed inverse problem, where recent 3D Gaussian Splatting methods offer an efficient explicit representation for tomographic reconstruction. However, we find that projection-domain optimization can be misleading in this setting: the rendered projections may continue to improve while the reconstructed volume deteriorates.

Extremely Sparse-View Computed Tomography from 2D Projections via Pose-Aware Diffusion Priors

The paper introduces a method for extremely sparse‑view computed tomography (xSV‑CT) that learns a pose‑aware diffusion prior from a single 2D projection per training sample. During inference, the diffusion process is guided by measured‑view fidelity, shared‑volume reprojection, and projection‑physics consistency to reconstruct 3D volumes from only 1, 4, or 8 views. Experiments on two public CT datasets show that this approach outperforms or matches baselines that rely on dense‑volume supervision, achieving superior novel‑view synthesis and competitive reconstruction quality.

SparseTokenGS: Gaussian-based Sparse-View CBCT Reconstruction via Reusable Token Pool

SparseTokenGS is a Gaussian-based, feed-forward method for sparse-view cone-beam CT reconstruction that uses a reusable token pool to maintain scan-wide context during decoding. Anchor Token Fusion and Point-Token Attention query this shared pool at anchors and query coordinates, preserving local Gaussian priors while enabling reconstruction in a single forward pass without per-scan optimization. Experiments on chest, dental, volcanic rock, and chicken datasets show that SparseTokenGS achieves superior reconstruction quality, achieving 29.51 dB PSNR and 0.842 SSIM from only six dental projections and maintaining separable tooth-and-pulp structures for root‑canal localization.
