Volumetric video enables immersive free viewpoint rendering of dynamic real world scenes, yet existing methods struggle with long sequences and complex motions, often leading to temporal instability and visual artifacts. To address these challenges, we propose \ourname, a Gaussian splatting based framework for volumetric video reconstruction. Our key insight is that explicitly tracking long term complex motion with individual Gaussian primitives is inherently unstable. Instead, we organize Gaussians around time conditioned anchors that localize their spatial and temporal support, thereby reducing long range motion complexity. We further introduce a temporal windowing strategy to activate only anchors relevant to the queried time, which improves scalability and temporal coherence. In addition, to ensure spatial and temporal stability, we design a compact set of multi level anchor features that encode global features, local spatial features, and local temporal features, jointly constraining Gaussian generation. Extensive experiments demonstrate that \ourname \ consistently outperforms prior methods on long sequence volumetric videos with complex motions. Project page: https://github.com/WuJH2001/ATGS.
Reconstructing photorealistic scenes in unconstrained underwater environments remains challenging due to severe media-induced light scattering and unpredictable dynamic objects. Recent feed-forward visual foundation models have demonstrated remarkable capabilities in generalized novel view synthesis and tracking. However, when directly applied to aquatic videos, optical attenuation and motion interference fatally corrupt their feature aggregation, leading to severe tracking and reconstruction failures. To overcome these limitations, we present NemoSplat, the first feed-forward 4D Gaussian Splatting framework tailored for media-aware dynamic reconstruction directly from uncalibrated marine videos. Beyond providing robust estimations of camera poses and dense scene depth, we devise a Promptable Dynamic Disentangler that utilizes a confidence-aware fusion strategy of learned dynamic probabilities and optional semantic text priors, effectively isolating massive transient entities. Furthermore, to counteract visual degradation, a Media-Aware Gaussian Predictor is formulated to jointly estimate intrinsic 3D Gaussian attributes alongside physical media parameters, rendering pristine scene appearance in a single forward pass. Additionally, we introduce a large-scale underwater dataset with massive dynamic elements to facilitate training and evaluation. Extensive experiments on our dataset demonstrate that NemoSplat achieves state-of-the-art tracking accuracy and high-fidelity rendering.
We present GCA (Gaussian Constitutive Alignment), a framework for learning implicit constitutive laws from monocular dynamic video of deformable objects represented by 3D Gaussians. Given a static multi-view scan for geometric initialization, our method learns intrinsic physical dynamics solely from a single fixed-viewpoint video of the moving object. Existing implicit methods often suffer from local minima under noisy supervision and lack physical interpretability, while explicit approaches rely on predefined constitutive equations, limiting generalizability and becoming unstable in monocular settings. To address these challenges, our framework unifies LoRA-based adaptation with two key alignment modules. First, we propose Rank-based Depth-Geometric Anchors (RDGA) to establish robust geometric constraints from monocular dynamic observations via scale-invariant rank-based depth alignment, reducing the reliance on unreliable pixel-level color supervision. Second, a Constitutive Prior Regularizer (CPR) integrates classical constitutive models as soft differentiable priors, regularizing the optimization while preserving the flexibility of implicit modeling---even when the actual material is absent from the hypotheses. Extensive experiments on synthetic, real-to-sim, and real-world datasets demonstrate that GCA outperforms existing methods, achieving 48% lower Chamfer Distance than the strongest baseline on synthetic benchmarks while remaining robust under monocular supervision.
Dynamic 3D scene reconstruction has achieved remarkable success under the assumption of strictly synchronized multi-camera inputs. However, in real-world scenarios, temporal asynchrony among capturing devices remains a critical challenge, leading to severe motion blur and geometric artifacts. Existing asynchronous reconstruction methods typically estimate temporal offsets through photometric supervision, but appearance matching provides weak temporal cues under large offsets and complex motions. We attribute this limitation to two major bottlenecks: texture-induced collapse, where low-texture regions provide nearly vanishing alignment signals, and deformation-induced coupling, where temporal errors are absorbed into distorted geometry or motion rather than being explicitly corrected. To address these issues, we propose ASTRA (Asynchronous Spatio-Temporal Reconstruction via Trajectory Alignment), a framework that introduces 2D motion trajectories as explicit, texture-agnostic supervision for asynchronous dynamic reconstruction. Instead of synchronizing cameras solely through rendered color residuals, ASTRA jointly optimizes temporal offsets and dynamic 3D representations by aligning the projected motion of reconstructed 3D points with observed 2D trajectories, while using dynamic and certainty masking to suppress unreliable trajectory constraints. Extensive experiments on different dynamic Gaussian Splatting backbones show that ASTRA preserves high-frequency spatial details and sustains strong robustness even under severe asynchrony with up to 25-frame offsets, achieving approximately 1.4 dB PSNR improvement, reducing temporal-offset MAE by 54.0\%, and nearly quadrupling the synchronization success rate.
Dynamic-scene reconstruction is almost always evaluated inside the observed time window, yet deployment settings such as AR overlays, robot interaction, and anticipatory planning need the future surface: the geometry at times beyond those captured. No standard benchmark measures this. We introduce FutureSurf, a controlled diagnostic benchmark and dataset for future-time surface reconstruction that trades scene diversity for exact future ground truth and falsification controls. A method trains on the observed first 75% of a sequence; we score its extracted per-frame surface on the held-out future by Chamfer distance, reporting absolute future CD as the primary score and the future/observed gap as a diagnostic. The dataset contains eight analytically defined controlled motions, including three falsification controls, with exact per-frame ground-truth meshes. We also provide a ground-truth-side recoverability oracle. The release includes split files, scoring code, a benchmark card, and Croissant metadata. On the controlled motions, the DG-Mesh backbone leaves a 2.7-4.1$\times$ gap even for futures predictable in principle (four of five recoverable from observed motion by a fixed rule), while the falsification controls behave as designed (the surface-invariant motion shows no gap). Beyond the contributed dataset, the gap persists across six animated DG-Mesh asset scenes and a second backbone, Deformable-3DGS (2.0-6.6$\times$; both share a deformation-MLP temporal model). The benchmark also shows that future rendering quality and future-surface accuracy are statistically decoupled, so the novel-view-synthesis metrics the field reports do not track future geometry. The future error is structured, concentrating where the surface moves. The dataset, evaluation toolkit, and scoring code are available on Hugging Face and GitHub (https://github.com/Ricky-S/futuresurf).
Dynamic scene reconstruction with 3D Gaussian Splatting requires a balance between fine-grained motion modeling, structural stability, and compact representation. Existing per-primitive methods provide flexible local deformation but often suffer from redundant primitive growth, while anchor-based methods improve spatial regularity at the cost of suppressing locally varying motion. To address these issues, we present GrainGS, a dynamic Gaussian framework that combines a hierarchical anchor scaffold with per-Gaussian deformation. A static warm-up stage first establishes a time-invariant canonical representation from observations across all timestamps. During joint training, a stop-gradient operation blocks the deformation-mediated gradient pathway to the canonical positions while preserving their direct refinement through the reconstruction objective. Each Gaussian then predicts independent temporal offsets for position, rotation, and scale, enabling detailed local motion within a structurally constrained scaffold. A canonical-residual appearance decomposition further models frame-dependent photometric changes without forcing them into geometric deformation. Experiments on synthetic monocular and real-world multiview benchmarks show that GrainGS achieves high reconstruction quality, real-time novel view synthesis, and compact storage. Under the synthetic benchmark setting, it reaches an average peak signal-to-noise ratio of 36.98 decibels, renders at 435.6 frames per second, and requires 4.67 megabytes of storage.
Recent 4D Gaussian Splatting (4DGS) methods often fail under fast motion with large inter-frame displacements, where Gaussian attributes are poorly learned during training, and fast-moving objects are often lost from the reconstruction. In this work, we introduce Spatiotemporal Position Implicit Network for 4DGS, coined SPIN-4DGS, which learns Gaussian attributes from explicitly collected spatiotemporal positions rather than modeling temporal displacements, thereby enabling more faithful splatting under fast motions with large inter-frame displacements. To avoid the heavy memory overhead of explicitly optimizing attributes across all spatiotemporal positions, we instead predict them with a lightweight feed-forward network trained under a rasterization-based reconstruction loss. Consequently, SPIN-4DGS learns shared representations across Gaussians, effectively capturing spatiotemporal consistency and enabling stable high-quality Gaussian splatting even under challenging motions. Across extensive experiments, SPIN-4DGS consistently achieves higher fidelity under large displacements, with clear improvements in PSNR and SSIM on challenging sports scenes from the CMU Panoptic dataset. For example, SPIN-4DGS notably outperforms the strongest baseline, D3DGS, by achieving +1.83 higher PSNR on the Basketball scene.
Dynamic scene reconstruction remains challenging due to the heterogeneous and spatially varying nature of real-world motion. Although recent 3D Gaussian Splatting methods have introduced diverse deformation formulations for dynamic novel view synthesis, each method typically relies on a single deformation model within its representation, which limits robustness across diverse dynamic scenarios. In this work, we study a fundamental problem-multi-deformation modeling for dynamic 3D Gaussian representations-under two distinct integration constraints that differ in when and how multiple deformation experts interact during training. From a Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) perspective, we view multi-deformation modeling as the problem of combining multiple specialized deformation models within a unified 3D representation. We first introduce Mixture of Deformation Experts (MoDE), which integrates multiple deformation experts directly into the deformable Gaussian Splatting pipeline through joint optimization. In MoDE, experts operate on a shared canonical Gaussian representation, enabling multi-deformation modeling without introducing additional training stages or modifying the original optimization schedule. In contrast, we further present Mixture of Experts for Dynamic Gaussian Splatting (MoE-GS) under a different integration constraint, where deformation experts are optimized independently and combined through a separate routing stage. As a result, expert interaction occurs over non-canonical Gaussian representations after individual optimization. Together, these two approaches provide alternative strategies for multi-deformation modeling, clarifying how integration constraints shape the design and behavior of deformation experts in dynamic 3D Gaussian representations. Our code is available at: https://github.com/cvsp-lab/MoE-GS-studio.
Reconstructing dynamic human-scene environments from monocular videos is a challenging problem that requires jointly modeling scene geometry, camera motion, and non-rigid human dynamics while enabling photorealistic rendering. Recent feed-forward methods can efficiently predict geometry, but they are often limited to non-photorealistic representations such as point clouds and meshes, or they fail to handle non-rigid objects, particularly dynamic humans. To fill this gap, we present GUSH3R (Gaussian-Unified Scene Human 3D Reconstruction), a feed-forward framework for online dynamic human-scene reconstruction. From a monocular human-scene video, our method reconstructs dynamic humans (everyone) and static scenes (everywhere) in a single forward pass (all at once) as 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) primitives (as gaussians), which are geometrically consistent and capable of novel view synthesis. Experiments on monocular human-scene datasets demonstrate that our approach achieves competitive novel view synthesis quality while significantly improving inference efficiency compared to optimization-based methods.
3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) enables real-time novel view synthesis for static scenes. Extending it to dynamic scenes via deformation fields has recently attracted significant attention, particularly for dynamic scene reconstructionband distractor-free. However, existing deformation networks lack explicit motion awareness: they neither capture long-term motion intensity nor exploit short-term temporal coherence, leading to inaccurate foreground deformation and pseudo-static residuals in the background. We present MVFusion-GS, a method that enhances deformation networks with two complementary motion-aware mechanisms. The Motion-Variance Guided Refinement aggregates per-Gaussian deformation statistics across time to estimate motion variance and uses it to guide dynamic-static separation during deformation prediction. The MotionFormer Temporal Attention module applies Transformer self-attention over neighboring timesteps to model local motion dependencies and improve temporal consistency. Extensive experiments on both dynamic scene reconstruction and distractor-free reconstruction benchmarks demonstrate state-of-the-art performance, showing that explicit motion awareness improves both foreground motion modeling and static background reconstruction.
Reconstructing dynamic 3D scenes from monocular videos is challenging due to scene complexity and temporal dynamics. With the advancement of 3D Gaussian Splatting in novel view synthesis, existing methods extend 3D Gaussians to 4D domain with deformation fields, trajectories or spatiotemporal 4D volumes to model scene element deformation. However, these methods suffer from long training time, low rendering speed or high memory consumption for per-frame reconstruction of 4D volumes, without fully exploiting dense dynamic information. To address this issue, we propose Flow Splatting, which constructs the velocity field and enables the conventional splatting technique to render optical flow from the velocity field to supervise dynamics learning process from monocular videos. Specifically, we extend 4D volumes with time varying means and covariance to represent complex dynamics. Then, we construct and approximate the velocity field naturally based on this representations. While conventional volume rendering techniques support to render color fields, we extend the volume rendering strategy to splat the velocity field by considering the influence of camera motions. We conduct experiments on various benchmarks to demonstrate the efficiency and effectiveness of our method. Compared to the state-of-the-art methods, our model achieves better image quality with less time consumption and higher rendering speed.
Reconstructing dynamic human--object interaction scenes from monocular video is difficult because the human, manipulated object, and background obey different motion models while sharing the same pixels. Existing dynamic radiance-field and Gaussian-splatting methods often entangle these components, causing object motion to leak into the human or static scene, and monocular human reconstruction remains underconstrained in regions that are rarely observed. We present CoGS, a compositional Gaussian-splatting framework for monocular human--object scene reconstruction. CoGS decomposes the video into three coordinated branches: an articulated human initialized from a complete canonical prior, a rigid object field driven by an estimated object trajectory, and a static scene field regularized by weak scene-only planar primitives when available. A six-stage optimization schedule first stabilizes the human and object independently, then fuses them with the scene under full-image supervision, visibility-aware human anchoring, object silhouette and motion constraints, and delayed scene regularization. This design keeps each component responsible for its own geometry and motion while allowing photometric evidence to correct the final composite. Experiments on HOSNeRF and NeuMan show that CoGS improves both human--object interaction reconstruction and in-the-wild human--scene rendering, achieving stronger fidelity and perceptual quality across full-frame and human-focused evaluations. Code will be released upon publication.
Deformable 3D Gaussian Splatting (D-3DGS) re-constructs dynamic scenes from monocular video by deforming a canonical set of 3D Gaussians through a positional-encoded MLP of frame time t. Although fitted to a continuous variable, the MLP couples no two values of t in its architecture and effectively predicts discrete per-frame offsets, leaving temporal smoothness to emerge only as a byproduct of optimisation. We redesign the deformation field as a stack of Closed-form Continuous-time (CfC) cells, a Liquid Neural Network (LNN), that is the closed-form solution of the Liquid Time-constant ODE while preserving every other part of the D-3DGS pipeline. Each cell exposes a sigmoidal time gate that interpolates between two candidate hidden states, baking a learned smooth response to t into the loss landscape without invoking any numerical solver. On the eight D-NeRF and seven NeRF-DS scenes the liquid field matches or exceeds the MLP baseline in aggregate, with its largest gains concentrated on the scenes with the most high-frequency articulated motion. The result is a near-zero-friction architectural design that turns the discrete MLP deformation field into an explicit continuous-time function of t.

Dynamic scene reconstruction from monocular videos remains highly challenging, as existing methods often struggle to balance global structural coherence and local fine-grained details under limited multi-view cues. To address this challenge, we propose WebSpline, a novel dynamic 3D Gaussian framework that enables structurally coherent and high-fidelity reconstruction from monocular videos with fast rendering. The core of WebSpline is the Structure-Informed Spline (SIS) representation, which models each dynamic Gaussian trajectory using a learnable cubic Hermite spline whose motion is structurally organized with an auxiliary Structural Proxy Graph (SPG). The proposed framework is optimized in two stages: (i) in the first stage, the SPG is initialized from 2D point tracks and refined with temporal rigidity regularization to establish structural coherence for moving objects across the sequence; and (ii) in the second stage, the SIS representation is initialized from the refined SPG and optimized under both spatial and structural neighborhood constraints. At inference, Gaussian motion is obtained solely by evaluating the learned SIS, enabling fast rendering. Extensive experiments on the challenging monocular dynamic scene benchmarks, iPhone and NVIDIA, demonstrate that our WebSpline achieves state-of-the-art rendering quality while rendering over 10 times faster than WorldTree, the second-best method on the iPhone dataset.
Recent feed-forward 3D gaussian splatting methods have made dramatic progress on individual aspects of 3D scene reconstruction, but no existing method jointly addresses dynamic content, multi-view input, and unknown camera poses in a single feed-forward pass. Methods that handle dynamics either require accurate camera poses or accept only monocular input; pose-free multi-view methods address only static scenes; and per-scene optimization methods bridge some of these gaps but at minutes-to-hours cost per scene. We introduce NoPo4D, the first feed-forward system that addresses this empty quadrant. Building on a pretrained geometry backbone and recent 4D Gaussian frameworks, NoPo4D introduces a velocity decomposition that splits Gaussian motion into per-pixel image-plane shifts and depth changes, allowing direct supervision from pseudo ground-truth optical flow on the 2D component. This sidesteps both the differentiable rendering that couples prior posed methods to pose accuracy and the 3D motion ground truth that prior pose-free methods require. The system is rounded out by a bidirectional motion encoder for cross-view and cross-frame feature aggregation, and view-dependent opacity that mitigates cross-view and cross-timestep Gaussian misalignments. On four multi-view dynamic benchmarks, NoPo4D consistently outperforms prior feed-forward baselines, and with an optional post-optimization stage surpasses per-scene optimization methods, while running orders of magnitude faster.
