A General Framework to Boost 3D GS Initialization for Text-to-3D Generation by Lexical Richness

open access: yesProceedings of the 32nd ACM International Conference on Multimedia
Text-to-3D content creation has recently received much attention, especially with the prevalence of 3D Gaussians Splatting. In general, GS-based methods comprise two key stages: initialization and rendering optimization. To achieve initialization, existing works directly apply random sphere initialization or 3D diffusion models, e.g., Point-E, to ...
