Abstract

Fast and efficient reconstruction supports time-critical tasks such as tele-guidance and disaster response. CoRe-GS introduces a semantic POI-focused Gaussian Splatting pipeline that first builds a fast segmentation-ready representation and then selectively refines semantically relevant regions. This significantly reduces training time while improving novel view quality in areas of interest.
