How to compress 3D gaussian splatting models?
3dgs-compression-deploy reduces model size through quantization, pruning, and vector quantization techniques. Quantization lowers bit-width precision of Gaussian parameters; pruning removes low-contribution splats; VQ replaces parameter distributions with learned codebooks. Choose methods based on your target platform's memory and bandwidth constraints to maintain visual quality while cutting storage overhead.
What bit-width should I use for 3DGS quantization?
3dgs-compression-deploy guides bit-width selection per platform. Web browsers typically tolerate 8-bit quantization; mobile devices benefit from 4-6 bit mixed precision; edge accelerators may support 2-4 bit with careful calibration. Higher bit-widths preserve quality but increase file size. Test your target scene with different widths to find the quality-efficiency tradeoff that meets your deployment requirements.
How do I deploy gaussian splatting to a web browser?
3dgs-compression-deploy enables web deployment via progressive streaming and level-of-detail architectures. Compress your model using quantization and pruning, then stream coarse LoD layers first over WebGPU or WebGL. Clients render low-quality versions immediately while higher-detail layers load asynchronously, reducing initial latency and bandwidth demands for interactive web-based 3D Gaussian viewing.
What pruning strategy works best for mobile 3DGS optimization?
3dgs-compression-deploy supports Bayesian coreset pruning and contribution-based strategies for mobile. Bayesian methods identify redundant Gaussians probabilistically; contribution-based approaches remove splats with minimal visual impact. Mobile platforms benefit most from aggressive pruning (30-50% removal) combined with 4-bit quantization. Validate pruned models on target devices to ensure rendering speed meets your frame-rate requirements.
How can I accelerate 3DGS rendering on hardware?
3dgs-compression-deploy supports Tensor Core, FPGA, and ASIC acceleration via hierarchical GPU tiling and specialized kernels. Tensor Cores excel at batched Gaussian rasterization; FPGAs enable custom memory hierarchies for streaming; ASICs optimize fixed-precision arithmetic. Pair hardware acceleration with compression to maximize throughput—quantized models reduce memory bandwidth bottlenecks and improve cache utilization on all platforms.
What is vector quantization for 3DGS compression?
3dgs-compression-deploy uses VQ to replace Gaussian parameter distributions with learned codebook entries. Instead of storing full-precision means, covariances, and colors, VQ maps groups of parameters to discrete codes, then stores only code indices and residuals. This dramatically reduces file size—often 10-20× compression—while entropy coding further compresses the codebook and index streams for efficient transmission and storage.
