• Abstract: Compared with previous 3D reconstruction methods like Nerf, recent Generalizable 3D Gaussian Splatting (G-3DGS) methods demonstrate impressive efficiency even in the sparse-view setting. However, the promising reconstruction performance of existing G-3DGS methods relies heavily on accurate multi-view feature matching, which is quite challenging. Especially for the scenes that have many non-overlapping areas between various views and contain numerous similar regions, the matching performance of existing methods is poor and the reconstruction precision is limited. To address this problem, we develop a strategy that utilizes a predicted depth confidence map to guide accurate local feature matching. In addition, we propose to utilize the knowledge of existing monocular depth estimation models as prior to boost the depth estimation precision in non-overlapping areas between views. Combining the proposed strategies, we present a novel G-3DGS method named TranSplat, which obtains the best performance on both the RealEstate10K and ACID benchmarks while maintaining competitive speed and presenting strong cross-dataset generalization ability. Our code, and demos will be available at: https://xingyoujun.github.io/transplat.

  3D Gaussian Splatting (3D-GS) technique couples 3D primitives with differentiable Gaussianization to achieve high-quality novel view results. However, 3D-GS frequently suffers from over-reconstruction issue in intricate scenes containing high-frequency details, leading to blurry rendered images. We present a comprehensive analysis of the cause of aforementioned artifacts, namely gradient collision. Our strategy efficiently identifies large Gaussians in over-reconstructed regions, and recovers fine details by splitting.
