Beyond Static Gaussians: An Empirical Investigation of Architectural Paradigms for Dynamic 3D Scene Reconstruction
Dynamic scene reconstruction via 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) has emerged as a compelling approach for representing evolving environments, yet understanding trade-offs between methodologies remains crucial. This paper presents a comprehensive analysis of dynamic 3DGS methods, categorizing them into two paradigms: structure-guided methods employing auxiliary representations (deformation fields, canonical spaces, grids) to model temporal changes, and gaussian-centric methods encoding dynamics directly into primitives via continuous functions or 4D representations. We evaluate representative methods from both paradigms on the D-NeRF benchmark. Our findings reveal that structure-guided method...
