Unified Panoramic-Gaussian Representation for Monocular 4D Scene Synthesis

Dynamic scene reconstruction from monocular video remains a fundamental challenge in computer vision. Existing feed-forward methods predict 3D Gaussians pixel-wise for each frame, suffering from duplicated Gaussians and view-dependent biases that hinder effective learning of scene motion. We present C4G, a feed-forward 4D reconstruction framework built upon a compact set of timestamp-conditioned learnable Gaussian query tokens. Each token aggregates corresponding features across the full temporal context and decodes a 3D Gaussian whose position is modulated by the target timestamp, enabling globally coherent motion modeling without per-scene optimization. To capture fine-grained details, we further introduce a video diffusion model-based rendering enhancement module. Since our framework effectively aggregates features into Gaussians, we extend this capability to feature lifting, producing a 4D feature field that supports point tracking and dynamic scene understanding. C4G achieves strong novel-view synthesis performance using significantly fewer Gaussians and without requiring camera poses, while exhibiting stronger motion modeling and robustness to large temporal gaps.

Generating interactive and dynamic 4D scenes from a single static image remains a core challenge. Most existing generate-then-reconstruct and reconstruct-then-generate methods decouple geometry from motion, causing spatiotemporal inconsistencies and poor generalization. To address these, we present MoGe4D (Motion and Geometry-Aware image-to-4D Synthesis), a geometry-conditioned framework for single-image 4D synthesis that models a scene as dense 4D point trajectories. Instead of treating geometry and dynamics as two disconnected stages, our method starts from an initial geometric prior inferred from the input image and predicts future time-varying trajectories in a diffusion process, improving spatiotemporal coherence while preserving structural stability. To support this task, we first introduce TrajScene-60K, a large-scale dataset of 60,000 video samples with dense 4D point trajectories, addressing the scarcity of high-quality training data for scene-level 4D generation. Built on this, our diffusion-based 4D Scene Trajectory Generator (4D-STraG) predicts geometry-consistent and motion-plausible trajectory fields conditioned on the input image, with a depth-guided motion normalization strategy to reduce scale ambiguity and a Motion Perception Module (MPM) to inject motion-aware priors. We further propose a 4D View Synthesis Module (4D-ViSM) to render the generated 4D representation into videos under arbitrary camera trajectories. Experiments show that MoGe4D produces high-quality 4D scenes with strong temporal coherence, favorable geometry-aware consistency, and compelling novel-view synthesis from a single image.

Generating 4D scenes from a single-view video is inherently ill-posed: a single viewpoint lacks the information needed to recover a complete, dynamic scene with full coverage. Existing methods are typically limited to monocular videos, simple 3D effects, or only small viewpoint perturbations around the original viewpoint, falling short of true 4D generation. Meanwhile, the lack of large-scale datasets capturing full-scope 4D scenes with synchronized multi-view videos further hinders progress in this direction. We propose a novel single-view video-to-4D framework that casts full-scope 4D generation as a multi-view video synthesis followed by optimization-based 4D reconstruction from the generated views. To instantiate this formulation end-to-end, we make three key contributions. First, we introduce Real-MV-4D, a large-scale dataset of synchronized multi-view videos captured in diverse real-world environments to provide the 4D supervision. Second, we train a multi-view video diffusion model driven by a novel fused time(T)-view(V) attention mechanism that directly embeds geometric reprojection priors and explicit camera conditioning into its view-time interactions. Unlike basic feature fusion, this direct binding strictly aligns the generation process with physical 3D priors to produce a dense, synchronized T$\times$V video grid. Third, rather than relying on non-interactive and inconsistent 2D video interpolations, we lift the synthesized multi-view videos into an explicit 4D representation (i.e. 4DGS), regularized by a Flow Matching Distillation loss that exploits the multi-view prior to improve novel-view rendering. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our method outperforms existing approaches in both visual fidelity and geometric consistency, enabling full-scope 4D scene generation from single-view videos.
