TL;DR

This work introduces a novel method to unify these partial 3DGS models into seamless temporal representations (4DGS), termed Blended 3DGS, and demonstrates the framework's versatility in the context of digital actor pipelines for costume design and facial animation, as well as virtual period fashion for Virtual Productions.

Abstract

We present a lightweight production pipeline that transforms fragile historical costumes into dynamic digital assets using Generative Re-imagination to bridge the gap between restricted physical archives and production requirements. Our key insight is that labor-intensivke physical scanning and multi-camera photogrammetric capture can be replaced by AI-generated virtual views, which serve as the foundation for 3DGS model creation. We introduce a novel method to unify these partial 3DGS models into seamless temporal representations (4DGS), termed Blended 3DGS, and demonstrate the framework's versatility in the context of digital actor pipelines for costume design and facial animation, as well as virtual period fashion for Virtual Productions.

Generative AI-Assisted Visualization Prototyping for Cultural Heritage: A Computational Framework from 2D Planes to 3D Immersive Scenes

A human-in-the-loop GenAI-assisted framework for producing immersive 3D visualization prototypes rather than historically verified reconstructions is proposed, which integrates multi-view image generation, knowledge-informed review, single-image-to-3D generation, topology inspection, and perceptual calibration.
