We address the problem of color attribute compression for 3D splats. We show that all images generated by 3D splats are linear in the coefficients for each color channel, each spherical harmonic, and each splat, and we identify a basis for the space of all such images. We identify an inner product for the coefficient space that induces the squared error loss on images. We show that orthonormalizing the coefficients with respect to this innner product before coding can yield over 2 dB gain.
