📝 摘要(中文)
3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) 最近在实时新视角合成中表现出色,但在有限视角下难以恢复准确表面,且高斯原语的固有不规则性导致几何错误难以手动修正。为了解决这些问题,本文提出了Gaussian Sculpting,一个完全可微的端到端框架,用于高质量表面重建。核心思想是将高斯锚定在不断演变的可微表面上,使其引导有符号距离场(SDF)优化,而不是仅在后处理阶段提取表面。通过双层训练策略,外层优化SDF表示的几何形状,内层在几何固定的情况下更新高斯。此外,本文还引入了基于八叉树的多分辨率细分方案,以在降低内存消耗的同时保留细节。实验表明,该方法有效去除冗余表面,恢复因视角限制而缺失的结构,并在相对低分辨率下实现强重建质量。

📄 摘要(原文)
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. The resulting geometric errors are notoriously difficult to correct manually. To address these issues, we propose Gaussian Sculpting, a fully differentiable end-to-end framework for high-quality surface reconstruction. Our key insight is to anchor Gaussians onto an evolving differentiable surface, allowing them to guide signed distance field (SDF) optimization instead of extracting the surface only during post-processing. To enable stable gradient isolation during joint optimization, we design a bi-level training strategy in which the outer loop optimizes the geometry represented by the SDF, while the inner loop updates the Gaussians with the geometry fixed. We further impose constraints on Gaussian parameters to ensure consistency with the underlying surface, thereby improving both geometric and appearance fidelity during optimization. In addition, we introduce a multi-resolution subdivision scheme based on octree-like partitioning to preserve fine details while reducing memory consumption. Experiments on object-level scenes demonstrate that our method effectively removes redundant surfaces, recovers missing structures caused by limited viewpoints, and achieves strong reconstruction quality even at relatively low resolutions.
