Pose-free 3D Gaussian splatting via shape-ray estimation

Youngju Na, Taeyeon Kim, Jumin Lee et al.

While generalizable 3D Gaussian splatting enables efficient, high-quality rendering of unseen scenes, it heavily depends on precise camera poses for accurate geometry. In real-world scenarios, obtaining accurate poses is challenging, leading to noisy pose estimates and geometric misalignments. To address this, we introduce SHARE, a pose-free, feed-forward Gaussian splatting framework that overcomes these ambiguities by joint shape and camera rays estimation. Instead of relying on explicit 3D transformations, SHARE builds a pose-aware canonical volume representation that seamlessly integrates multi-view information, reducing misalignment caused by inaccurate pose estimates. Additionally, anchor-aligned Gaussian prediction enhances scene reconstruction by refining local geometry around coarse anchors, allowing for more precise Gaussian placement. Extensive experiments on diverse real-world datasets show that our method achieves robust performance in pose-free generalizable Gaussian splatting.

PECI-Net: Bolus segmentation from video fluoroscopic swallowing study images using preprocessing ensemble and cascaded inference

Dougho Park, Younghun Kim, Harim Kang et al.

Bolus segmentation is crucial for the automated detection of swallowing disorders in videofluoroscopic swallowing studies (VFSS). However, it is difficult for the model to accurately segment a bolus region in a VFSS image because VFSS images are translucent, have low contrast and unclear region boundaries, and lack color information. To overcome these challenges, we propose PECI-Net, a network architecture for VFSS image analysis that combines two novel techniques: the preprocessing ensemble network (PEN) and the cascaded inference network (CIN). PEN enhances the sharpness and contrast of the VFSS image by combining multiple preprocessing algorithms in a learnable way. CIN reduces ambiguity in bolus segmentation by using context from other regions through cascaded inference. Moreover, CIN prevents undesirable side effects from unreliably segmented regions by referring to the context in an asymmetric way. In experiments, PECI-Net exhibited higher performance than four recently developed baseline models, outperforming TernausNet, the best among the baseline models, by 4.54\% and the widely used UNet by 10.83\%. The results of the ablation studies confirm that CIN and PEN are effective in improving bolus segmentation performance.
