Abstract
Recent advancements in 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) have demonstrated its potential for efficient and photorealistic 3D reconstructions, which is crucial for diverse applications such as robotics and immersive media. However, current Gaussian-based methods for dynamic scene reconstruction struggle with large inter-frame displacements, leading to artifacts and temporal inconsistencies under fast object motions. To address this, we introduce TrackerSplat, a novel method that integrates advanced point tracking methods to enhance the robustness and scalability of 3DGS for dynamic scene reconstruction. TrackerSplat utilizes off-the-shelf point tracking models to extract pixel trajectories and triangulate per-view pixel trajectories onto 3D Gaussians to guide the relocation, rotation, and scaling of Gaussians before training. This strategy effectively handles large displacements between frames, dramatically reducing the fading and recoloring artifacts prevalent in prior methods. By accurately positioning Gaussians prior to gradient-based optimization, TrackerSplat overcomes the quality degradation associated with large frame gaps when processing multiple adjacent frames in parallel across multiple devices, thereby boosting reconstruction throughput while preserving rendering quality. Experiments on real-world datasets confirm the robustness of TrackerSplat in challenging scenarios with significant displacements, achieving superior throughput under parallel settings and maintaining visual quality compared to baselines.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
