Anchor-based 3D Gaussians cut primitives tenfold without losing quality

A new feed-forward framework replaces pixel-aligned predictions with entropy-guided 3D anchors, achieving state-of-the-art novel view synthesis while using an order of magnitude fewer Gaussians.

The authors present Anchor3DGS, a pose-free feed-forward 3D Gaussian Splatting method that replaces the standard pixel-aligned prediction of one Gaussian per pixel with a compact anchor-based representation.

Anchor3DGS takes uncalibrated multi-view images and, in a single forward pass, outputs a set of 3D Gaussians for the scene.
