Supported by our framework, we propose a hybrid Gaussian representation with foreground and skyball background models. Experiments demonstrate this representation reduces artifacts in unbounded outdoor scenes and improves novel view synthesis. Finally, we propose Gaussian Splatting Surface Reconstruction (GauS), a novel render-then-fuse approach for high-fidelity mesh reconstruction from 3DGS inputs without fine-tuning. Overall, our GauStudio framework, hybrid representation, and GauS approach enhance 3DGS modeling and rendering capabilities, enabling higher-quality novel view synthesis and surface reconstruction.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2403.19632v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2403.19632v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"gaustudio-a-modular-framework-for-3d-gaussian","repo_url":"https://github.com/gap-lab-cuhk-sz/gaustudio","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"pytorch","reach":null}],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"3dgs","task_name":"3DGS"},{"task_slug":"novel-view-synthesis","task_name":"Novel View Synthesis"},{"task_slug":"surface-reconstruction","task_name":"Surface Reconstruction"}],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":"https://syntology.ai/paper/2403.19632","atlas_url":"https://app.syntology.ai/?focus=2403.19632","mcp":{"get_harvested_code_for_paper":{"arxiv_id":"2403.19632"}},"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers","read_at":"2026-09-25T09:33:49+00:00","read_at_is":"when the build read Syntology's graph, not when any sample ran","claim":"Per-sample execution status on synthesized fixtures; not a correctness claim about the paper.
