While 3D Gaussian Splatting has shown promising results in street scene reconstruction, existing methods require massive numbers of Gaussian primitives to capture fine details, leading to prohibitive storage costs and slow rendering speeds. We observe that dynamic objects (e.g., vehicles and pedestrians) demand high-fidelity representations to maintain temporal consistency, while static background regions often contain substantial redundancy. Motivated by this, we propose SparseStreet, a general compression framework specifically designed for street scenes. First, we introduce a node-based learnable pruning strategy that systematically removes low-contributing Gaussian primitives while preserving visually critical regions. Second, after the scene representation stabilizes, we apply background compression, further reducing redundancy in static regions. Our method effectively preserves the geometry and appearance of dynamic objects while significantly reducing the total number of Gaussian primitives. Extensive experiments on the Waymo and nuScenes demonstrate that SparseStreet achieves up to 80% compression ratio with minimal quality degradation, enabling resource-efficient, high-fidelity dynamic scene reconstruction.

Dynamic scene reconstruction and novel view synthesis are fundamental to next-generation visual intelligence applications such as virtual reality, robotics, and digital twins. However, high-fidelity reconstruction of complex, time-varying scenes from arbitrary viewpoints remains a significant challenge. Existing dynamic 3DGS methods suffer from computational inefficiency, since they model all Gaussians as dynamic components. While recent decomposition-based approaches address this issue, they still struggle with degraded reconstruction quality and prolonged training time. To mitigate these limitations, we propose a novel dynamic reconstruction framework built upon an efficient static-dynamic decomposition strategy using a Feed-Forward Gaussian Splatting encoder and an optical flow model. By eliminating redundant computations on static regions, our method achieves state-of-the-art performance, outperforming existing baselines across rendering quality, training and rendering speed, and storage efficiency. Notably, on the Neural 3D dataset, our framework requires only 10 minutes for training and achieves a rendering speed of over 700 FPS on a single NVIDIA RTX 5090 GPU at resolution of 1352x1014. Furthermore, our decomposition strategy eliminates the need for COLMAP preprocessing and enables deterministic initialization, thereby enhancing both efficiency and reproducibility.
High-fidelity reconstruction of dynamic urban environments is a cornerstone of autonomous driving simulation and large-scale world modeling. While 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) has established a new standard for real-time rendering, its reliance on expensive per-scene optimization limits scalability. Conversely, recent feedforward methods that infer Gaussian parameters offer faster speed but face fundamental bottlenecks: they are memory-prohibitive at high resolutions and struggle to fuse dense multi-view observations consistently. This paper presents L2D2-GS, a unified framework that reformulates generalizable reconstruction not as a one-shot regression, but as a robust iterative process of optimization and densification. To resolve the ambiguity of supervision in primitive generation, we propose a self-supervised densification policy that derives explicit reward signals from global reconstruction gains to guide local densification. Furthermore, we mitigate irreversible early-stage artifacts through a geometric regularization mechanism, utilizing reparameterization to constrain the optimization manifold and prevent convergence to poor local optima. Extensive experiments on the PandaSet and Waymo datasets demonstrate that our method achieves state-of-the-art reconstruction fidelity and strong zero-shot generalization, while using fewer primitives than competing baselines.
Novel view synthesis is a key task for dynamic scene reconstruction, where high rendering speed is essential for applications such as virtual reality. Existing deformable Gaussian Splatting methods achieve high-fidelity dynamic scene modeling, but still face limitations in memory usage and rendering efficiency due to the large number of redundant Gaussians. To address these challenges, we propose Geometry-Aware Redundancy Optimization (GARO), a unified redundancy measurement framework in the adaptive density control stage of the traditional dynamic scene reconstruction pipeline. This framework first selects low-gradient candidates using an optimization activity assessment strategy, and then evaluates geometric complexity through low curvature analysis to further filter and prune redundant points, resulting in a compact and expressive Gaussian representation. Extensive experiments on synthetic and real-world datasets demonstrate that GARO achieves robust trade-offs between quality and speed, with PSNR remaining stable and rendering speed improved by 2x, validating the efficiency and effectiveness of GARO.
