3D Gaussian splatting relies on depth-sorting of splats, which is costly and prone to artifacts (e.g., "popping"). In our latest work, "StochasticSplats", we replace sorted alpha blending by stochastic transparency, an unbiased Monte Carlo estimator from the real-time rendering literature.

Make sure to check out Thomas' 3DV paper Gaussians-to-Life. He investigated how video diffusion models can be used to animate arbitrary scenes and make them come to life!

Exciting news! MegaSAM code is outπŸ”₯ & the updated Shape of Motion results with MegaSAM are really impressive! A year ago I didn't think we could make any progress on these videos: shape-of-motion.github.io/results.html
Huge congrats to everyone involved and the community πŸŽ‰

As someone who has reported on AI for 7 years and covered China tech as well, I think the biggest lesson to be drawn from DeepSeek is the huge cracks it illustrates with the current dominant paradigm of AI development. A long thread. 1/

I have switched from X and Facebook to Bluesky. I will delete both my X and Facebook accounts in a little bit.
