FreeTimeGS++: Secrets of Dynamic Gaussian Splatting and Their Principles

arXiv:2605.03337v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The recent surge in 4D Gaussian Splatting (4DGS) has achieved impressive dynamic scene reconstruction. While these methods demonstrate remarkable performance, the specific drivers behind such gains remain less explored, making a systematic understanding of the underlying principles challenging. In this paper, we perform a comprehensive analysis of these hidden factors to provide a clearer perspective on the 4DGS framework. We first establish a controlled baseline, FreeTimeGS_ours, by formalizing and reproducing the heuristics of the sta
