Structured-Li-GS: Structured 3D Gaussians Splatting with LiDAR Incorporation and Spatial Constraints

This paper introduces Structured-Li-GS, a lightweight Gaussian Splatting pipeline that integrates LiDAR-inertial-visual SLAM. It achieves high-quality 3D reconstructions with fewer Gaussians by training on accurate, dense, colorized point clouds, without requiring Gaussian densification. Multiple loss functions guide the training, producing up-to-scale, high-fidelity results. Experiments on benchmark and in-house datasets surpass state-of-the-art methods.

Abstract:In this study, we develop a Structured framework for Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) with LiDAR integration (Structured-Li-GS). It is a lightweight Gaussian Splatting pipeline that leverages LiDAR-inertial-visual SLAM. Structured-Li-GS achieves high-quality 3D reconstructions with fewer Gaussians by training on accurate, dense, colorized point clouds. Gaussian primitives are anchored using sub-sampled point clouds, and their ellipsoidal parameters are initialized from local surface geometry. Our training strategy integrates a comprehensive set of loss terms, including photometric, flattening, offset, depth, and normal losses, guided by the dense point cloud, enabling accurate reconstruction without Gaussian densification. This approach produces up-to-scale, high-fidelity results with a moderate model size. For experimental validation, we develop a custom hardware-synchronized LiDAR-camera handheld scanner. Experiments on both benchmark datasets and our real-world in-house dataset demonstrate that Structured-Li-GS surpasses state-of-the-art methods while using fewer Gaussians.
