3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) has recently enabled real-time novel view synthesis with impressive quality. However, it struggles to recover accurate surfaces under limited viewpoints and due to the inherent irregularity of Gaussian primitives.

CoMVS‑GS is a surface‑reconstruction framework that fuses Multi‑View Stereo (MVS) with 3D Gaussian splatting. It initializes Gaussian primitives from dense MVS points, uses PatchMatch‑3DGS mutual supervision to refine depths and normals, and replaces voxel‑based meshing with a Delaunay graph‑cut pipeline. Experiments on DTU, GauU‑Scene V2, and MatrixCity demonstrate competitive object‑level results and improved geometric accuracy and mesh compactness in outdoor scenes while preserving high rendering quality.
MEGA is a new framework that extracts object-level, watertight meshes from 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) scenes. It uses a segment-then-mesh approach, leveraging Spatial Visual Distillation (SVD) to sample diverse camera views of each segmented object and train a mesh reconstruction model with photometric supervision. Experiments on popular benchmarks show that MEGA outperforms existing methods in accurately recovering object-level 3D occupancy and supports complex physical interactions by combining high-quality meshes with photorealistic 3DGS rendering.
InceptionGS is a method that improves large‑scale Gaussian splatting for scenes captured with unstructured view sampling. It starts from an initial Gaussian splatting and selectively repairs areas affected by sparse views by integrating scene‑ and view‑adaptive generative priors, while keeping well‑covered regions unchanged. Experiments on real‑world scenes show that this hybrid reconstruction‑generation approach yields higher‑fidelity results than existing methods.
