Abstract
Current Vision-based SLAM systems fail catastrophically when motion blur corrupts the visual input, as they attempt the ill-posed inverse problem of recovering sharp content from degraded observations. We present MotionGS-SLAM, which fundamentally reimagines motion blur handling through a paradigm shift: rather than removing blur artifacts, we reformulate the challenge as a well-constrained forward problem that generatively models blur formation within the rendering pipeline. By leveraging event cameras'microsecond temporal resolution and immunity to motion blur, we introduce a novel event-modulated Gaussian kernel that dynamically adapts each Gaussian's rasterization based on precise motion cues. Our dual-modulation mechanism transforms 2D Gaussian projections from isotropic dots into anisotropic, motion-aligned elliptical brush strokes (spatial modulation) while adaptively varying exposure integral sampling density based on local velocity (temporal modulation). This physics-based approach enables joint optimization of intra-exposure camera trajectories and 3D scene geometry through blur-aware photometric and event-based constraints. Extensive experiments demonstrate significant improvements over state-of-the-art methods in trajectory accuracy and map quality under severe high-motion conditions.
We address the inverse problem of blind 3D scene reconstruction from extremely motion-blurred images, a scenario where traditional Structure-from-Motion (SfM) pipelines fail. Existing approaches typically circumvent this bottleneck by relying on impractical sharp-image supervision. In this work, we introduce PRISM3D, a unified framework enabling robust reconstruction directly from severely degraded inputs. To overcome the lack of a reliable starting point, we propose a Robust Initialization strategy utilizing deep dense tracking method (VGGSfM) to recover global topology where feature matching fails. To the best of our knowledge, we are the first to effectively leverage this paradigm to bootstrap 3D Gaussian Splatting from extreme motion blur. However, while robust, this initialization yields sparse and noisy geometry that causes deterministic optimization to diverge. To resolve this, we propose a coupled solution driven by probability and physics: we adopt a probabilistic formulation for geometric densification via Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) to robustly populate the sparse priors, while simultaneously modeling physical image formation via continuous Bezier Trajectories. Furthermore, while PRISM3D establishes a highly robust standalone pipeline, the availability of complementary event streams offers an opportunity to push the reconstruction fidelity further. To exploit this, we introduce PRISM3D-E, a multi-modal (RGB + Events) extension that seamlessly integrates high-temporal-resolution events as structural priors to maximize geometric recovery. Because existing datasets lack paired event streams under such severe degradation, we concurrently contribute the PRISM3D-E Benchmark to facilitate rigorous evaluation. Extensive experiments demonstrate that both our standalone RGB framework and its multi-modal extension establish new state-of-the-art performance.
Dynamic scene reconstruction with 3D Gaussian Splatting requires a balance between fine-grained motion modeling, structural stability, and compact representation. Existing per-primitive methods provide flexible local deformation but often suffer from redundant primitive growth, while anchor-based methods improve spatial regularity at the cost of suppressing locally varying motion. To address these issues, we present GrainGS, a dynamic Gaussian framework that combines a hierarchical anchor scaffold with per-Gaussian deformation. A static warm-up stage first establishes a time-invariant canonical representation from observations across all timestamps. During joint training, a stop-gradient operation blocks the deformation-mediated gradient pathway to the canonical positions while preserving their direct refinement through the reconstruction objective. Each Gaussian then predicts independent temporal offsets for position, rotation, and scale, enabling detailed local motion within a structurally constrained scaffold. A canonical-residual appearance decomposition further models frame-dependent photometric changes without forcing them into geometric deformation. Experiments on synthetic monocular and real-world multiview benchmarks show that GrainGS achieves high reconstruction quality, real-time novel view synthesis, and compact storage. Under the synthetic benchmark setting, it reaches an average peak signal-to-noise ratio of 36.98 decibels, renders at 435.6 frames per second, and requires 4.67 megabytes of storage.

This paper tackles the challenge of novel view synthesis in complex scenes with under-constrained motion, as captured in monocular videos. Existing methods mainly focus on handling motion restricted within a bounded 3D volume, relying on spatio-temporal information to drive dynamic Gaussian deformations. However, due to the inherent motion ambiguities in monocular dynamic 3D representations and the limited observations, these methods face challenges in handling such scenes, often leading to incomplete geometry and boundary artifacts. To mitigate these issues, we propose a semantics-guided scene decoupling module that separates Gaussian primitives into static and dynamic components based on motion vectors. Further more, to enhance the capability in modeling non-rigid motions, we introduce a motion-aware densification module for motion compensation, which alleviates the incomplete rendering of dynamic objects caused by insufficient spatio-temporal information. Experimental results on real-world datasets demonstrate that our approach outperforms state-of-the-art methods in preserving both the integrity and detailed appearance of moving objects in dynamic scenes.
