Abstract

3D reconstruction of high-fidelity street scenes and view synthesis techniques are crucial for building autonomous driving simulation systems. Due to the lack of structural priors and inter-temporal modeling mechanisms, existing 3D reconstruction methods for self-driving street scenes are prone to geometric misalignment and motion artifacts when dealing with highly dynamic objects. To address the above problems, this paper proposes a high-fidelity reconstruction method of dynamic street scene based on 3D Gaussian. First, dynamic and static regions were separated using vehicle bounding boxes, and structural priors were introduced by incorporating LiDAR point clouds to improve the initialization accuracy of dynamic Gaussian primitives. Second, a Gaussian deformation network with joint spatio-temporal encoding was constructed to model non-rigid vehicle motion. Finally, a pixel gradient-driven adaptive density control strategy was designed to enhance the detail representation capability in dynamic regions. Experimental results on the KITTI and NuScenes datasets demonstrate that the proposed method significantly improves rendering quality and reconstruction efficiency. The peak signal-to-noise ratios reach 27.92 dB and 28.83 dB, respectively, which are 11.3% and 7.8% higher than those of the baseline 3D Gaussian Splatting method. These results indicate that the proposed approach provides a more efficient and reliable three-dimensional environment modeling solution for autonomous driving simulation systems.
