| contents | 3D Gaussian splatting (3DGS) is a state-of-the-art representation for real-time photorealistic novel-view synthesis, yet a single high-fidelity scene typically occupies hundreds of megabytes to several gigabytes, exceeding the budgets of mobile, immersive, and volumetric video platforms. Existing 3DGS compression methods (e.g., HAC++, FlexGaussian, LP-3DGS) treat pruning, quantization, and entropy coding as separate stages and rely on hand-tuned heuristics (opacity thresholds, fixed bit-widths, SH truncation), limiting cross-scene generalization and preventing users from specifying a target rate or quality budget. We propose GETA-3DGS, to our knowledge the first end-to-end automatic joint structured pruning and quantization framework for 3DGS. Building on GETA for joint pruning-quantization of deep networks, we contribute: (i) a 3DGS-aware quantization-aware dependency graph (QADG) treating each Gaussian primitive as a group with five attribute sub-nodes and degree-aware SH sub-nodes; (ii) a render-aware saliency fusing transmittance-weighted contribution, screen-space gradient, and pixel coverage into a Gaussian-level importance score; and (iii) a heterogeneous per-attribute mixed-precision scheme co-optimized with structural sparsity under a projected partial saliency-guided (PPSG) descent guarantee. On Mip-NeRF 360, Tanks and Temples, and Deep Blending, GETA-3DGS operates directly on raw Gaussian primitives rather than a post-hoc anchor representation, delivering ~5x storage reduction over Vanilla 3DGS with no per-scene thresholds. Bit-width policy is the dominant rate-distortion lever: a uniform 6-bit cap costs up to -6.74 dB on view-dependent scenes versus our heterogeneous allocation, matching an information-theoretic reverse-water-filling analysis we develop. GETA-3DGS is complementary to existing codecs: entropy coding (HAC++, CompGS) is downstream, so the two can be composed. |
