The paper proposes a novel algorithm, called 4D Gaussian Splatting (4DGS), for synthesizing novel views of dynamic scenes from casually recorded monocular videos. The authors introduce an uncertainty-aware regularization technique to address the overfitting problem in existing work on real-world videos. This approach improves both the quality of novel view synthesis and training image reconstruction. Additionally, the paper presents a method for initializing Gaussian primitives in fast-moving dynamic regions using estimated depth maps and scene flow. The proposed 4DGS algorithm demonstrates promising results in few-shot static scene reconstruction and shows improved performance in reconstructing dynamic scenes from handheld monocular camera videos.

Imagine being able to create new views of a dynamic scene, like a moving crowd or a racing car, just by looking at an old video. This is what the paper is about: finding a way to do this using only one camera and without needing to record everything from multiple angles. The authors have developed a special technique called 4D Gaussian Splatting (4DGS) that can do this. They also found a way to make sure their method works well even when there are lots of things moving quickly, like in a fast-paced sports game. Overall, the paper shows that it’s possible to create new views of dynamic scenes from old videos using just one camera.
