Efficient Confidence-Aware Densification for 3DGS proposes a new densification strategy for 3D Gaussian Splatting that replaces opacity-based sampling with error-driven placement of primitives. The method keeps a fixed primitive budget and places new primitives where image error and low learned confidence are highest, relocating under-contributing primitives accordingly. Across 24 scenes, it outperforms existing fixed-budget methods—including 3DGS-MCMC, ConeGS, and EDGS—in PSNR, SSIM, and LPIPS at budgets from 100k to 2M primitives, and can also leverage prior-based initialization to match or exceed prior methods.
