NRF-GS: Neural Residual Fields for Expressive and Compact Gaussian Splatting
arXiv cs.GR details NRF-GS, a hybrid Gaussian splatting method that swaps per-splat spherical harmonics for a shared neural residual field. The payoff is better view-dependent reflectance, especially specular detail, while …

Beyond Spherical Harmonics: Rethinking Appearance Models for Radiance Reconstruction
A new paper argues that low-order spherical harmonics are leaving visible quality on the table in radiance-field reconstruction, especially for glints and other sharp view-dependent effects. The authors say their …
