ClunoGS: Compact Language 3D Gaussian Splatting via Unified Optimization

Language 3D Gaussian Splatting enables open-vocabulary scene understanding by associating Gaussian primitives with language features.

Key points

  • These semantic attributes increase model storage, while most existing 3DGS compression methods are designed mainly to preserve RGB rendering quality.
  • We propose ClunoGS, a compact framework for Language 3DGS that combines semantics-aware Gaussian sparsification and vector quantization in a unified constrained objective.
  • We evaluate ClunoGS on open-vocabulary localization and segmentation using the LERF and ScanNet-10 benchmarks.
  • Under aggressive compression, our unified, semantics-aware formulation substantially alleviates the degradation of semantic representations caused by sequential compression and semantics-agnostic Gaussian sparsification.
