PaperS2Tok: Streaming 3D Gaussian Reconstruction with Persistent Spatial Tokens

S2Tok

A feed-forward framework for streaming 3D Gaussian reconstruction that maintains an adaptively expandable scene state through persistent spatial tokens. It combines a learned admission module and a hierarchical decoder to enable online 3D Gaussian reconstruction from uncalibrated image streams.

S2Tok introduces a learnable Admission Module to selectively decide when to expand the representation.

Because the Gaussians are not bound to specific pixels, S2Tok can perform novel view synthesis without caching historical frames.

S2Tok's innovation lies in introducing the temporal dimension—the token set grows over time, and old tokens can be modified by new observations, serving as hidden states in a recurrent system.
