We propose PixelGaussian, an efficient feed-forward framework for learning generalizable 3D Gaussian reconstruction from arbitrary views. Most existing methods rely on uniform pixel-wise Gaussian representations, which learn a fixed number of 3D Gaussians for each view and cannot generalize well to more input views. Differently, our PixelGaussian dynamically adapts both the Gaussian distribution and quantity based on geometric complexity, leading to more efficient representations and significant improvements in reconstruction quality. Specifically, we introduce a Cascade Gaussian Adapter to adjust Gaussian distribution according to local geometry complexity identified by a keypoint scorer. CGA leverages deformable attention in context-aware hypernetworks to guide Gaussian pruning and splitting, ensuring accurate representation in complex regions while reducing redundancy. Furthermore, we design a transformer-based Iterative Gaussian Refiner module that refines Gaussian representations through direct image-Gaussian interactions. Our PixelGaussian can effectively reduce Gaussian redundancy as input views increase. We conduct extensive experiments on the large-scale ACID and RealEstate10K datasets, where our method achieves state-of-the-art performance with good generalization to various numbers of views.

Realtime 4D reconstruction for dynamic scenes remains a crucial challenge for autonomous driving perception. Most existing methods rely on depth estimation through self-supervision or multi-modality sensor fusion. In this paper, we propose Driv3R, a DUSt3R-based framework that directly regresses per-frame point maps from multi-view image sequences. To achieve streaming dense reconstruction, we maintain a memory pool to reason both spatial relationships across sensors and dynamic temporal contexts to enhance multi-view 3D consistency and temporal integration. Furthermore, we employ a 4D flow predictor to identify moving objects within the scene to direct our network focus more on reconstructing these dynamic regions. Finally, we align all per-frame pointmaps consistently to the world coordinate system in an optimization-free manner. We conduct extensive experiments on the large-scale nuScenes dataset to evaluate the effectiveness of our method. Driv3R outperforms previous frameworks in 4D dynamic scene reconstruction, achieving 15x faster inference speed compared to methods requiring global alignment.

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.
