PocketSplat: Mobile Gaussian Reconstruction via World-Space Latent Allocatio

Wenzhi Guo, Xianda Chen, Dongxuan Chen, Guangchi Fang, Bing Wang

Mobile Gaussian reconstruction must satisfy two requirements: the reconstruction model must execute within a device resource envelope, and the resulting Gaussian asset must expose a representation size suited to downstream mobile use. Existing feed-forward Gaussian reconstructors commonly decode dense, image-aligned candidates whose final cardinality is implicitly determined by the input resolution and number of views. We present PocketSplat, a feed-forward framework for budgeted mobile Gaussian asset construction. Given a prescribed output budget, PocketSplat organizes dense geometry-aware latent candidates in predicted world space, allocates exact integer capacity across local latent cells, and decodes complete Gaussian attributes only for retained candidates. Cell-conditioned latent fusion aggregates repeated multi-view evidence before decoding, while spatial responsibility decoding adapts Gaussian support after local sparsification. Experiments on DL3DV and out-of-distribution benchmarks establish a strong quality--budget trade-off against feed-forward Gaussian reconstruction baselines. On Mip-NeRF 360, PocketSplat executes directly on a target iPhone and constructs compact,…
