3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) has emerged as an effective representation for novel view synthesis and 3D scene reconstruction, creating an increasing demand for reliable quality assessment. Unlike conventional image quality assessment (IQA), the quality of a 3DGS scene depends not only on the perceptual fidelity of rendered views, but also on scene-level factors such as spatial structure and cross-view consistency. Existing IQA methods are limited by their reliance on 2D perceptual cues, whereas general multimodal large language models (MLLMs) are not designed for stable quality regression and may produce unreliable judgments. To address these limitations, a multimodal quality assessment framework is developed for 3DGS scene understanding. First, a 3D-aware quality representation learning framework is introduced by augmenting a VGGT-based encoder with a dedicated quality head. Multi-view images are encoded into view-specific features and aggregated to capture cross-view consistency, while geometric cues are incorporated through joint modeling of depth and point-cloud-related structural information, enabling the learning of structure-aware quality representations beyond appearance-driven features. Second, a grounded multimodal reasoning mechanism is constructed by jointly feeding original images, depth maps, point cloud renderings, and camera parameters into a Qwen-based MLLM.

Single-frame surround-view reconstruction faces severe geometric instability and rendering artifacts due to minimal inter-camera overlap. While existing methods rely on complex decoders or auxiliary cues, they remain bottlenecked by the weak geometric capacity of upstream features. We argue that leveraging pretrained visual geometry priors strengthens upstream representations and alleviates the geometric ambiguity in sparse surround views. To this end, we propose VGGD, a visual geometry foundation-aware 3D Gaussian Splatting framework for feed-forward surround-view driving reconstruction, which shifts geometric modeling to the frontend and adapts foundation priors to the driving camera setting. First, VGGD leverages VGGT to provide transferable multi-view geometric prior tokens. Next, we introduce a Dual-Path Neck to decouple geometry-consistent and appearance-aware representations, improving appearance completion in weakly observed regions. We further apply Scale Warmup to stabilize early geometry learning and suppress scale drift under ego-pose changes. Finally, we use a hybrid pixel--volume Gaussian decoder to produce a renderable 3D Gaussian scene for novel-view synthesis. Experiments on the nuScenes single-frame benchmark show that VGGD achieves the best overall rendering quality among the compared methods and improves relative geometric consistency.

Open-vocabulary 3D scene understanding is commonly achieved by embedding 2D vision-language features such as CLIP into a 3D Gaussian Splatting scene, turning it into a text-queryable semantic field. However, attaching a high-dimensional feature to each of millions of Gaussians inflates a single scene to gigabytes, which makes storage and deployment the real bottleneck of these fields. Existing compact methods each learn and ship a per-scene codec, an autoencoder, a quantized codebook, or a distilled feature field, entangling field construction with field storage and never compressing the per-Gaussian assignment that holds the bulk of the cost. We argue that construction and storage should be decoupled, and that storage is a rate-distortion problem over the per-Gaussian binding to a small anchor table, a structure no prior open-vocabulary method compresses. We present CoSAG, which constructs the field without any per-scene training through a closed-form transmittance-weighted lift, spatially grounded semantic anchors, and multi-view denoising, and stores it with a spatially predictive entropy coder that ships no decoder. Because the anchors are spatially grounded, the binding is predictable and therefore highly compressible. The transmittance-weighted lift and multi-view denoising yield a clean, view-consistent assignment, so the entropy coder spends almost no rate on correcting noise and instead codes only the residual against its spatial prediction. CoSAG reaches sub-megabyte storage while matching or exceeding the state of the art across the 2D-rendered, 3D-selection, and dense-LSeg protocols, reducing field size by 37 to 76x relative to LangSplatV2 at higher accuracy.
