SUMMARY:Gradient-Weighted Feature Back-Projection: A Fast Alternative to F
 eature Distillation in 3D Gaussian Splatting
DESCRIPTION:Joji Joseph, Bharadwaj Amrutur, and Shalabh Bhatnagar (Indian 
 Institute of Science)\n\nWe propose a training-free method for feature fie
 ld rendering in 3D Gaussian Splatting, enabling fast and scalable embeddin
 g of high-dimensional features into 3D scenes. Unlike training-based featu
 re distillation methods, which are computationally expensive and often yie
 ld feature embeddings that poorly reflect the rendered semantics, our appr
 oach back-projects 2D features onto pre-trained 3D Gaussians using influen
 ce weights derived from the rendering equation. This projection produces a
  queryable 3D feature field, validated on tasks including 2D and 3D segmen
 tation, affordance transfer, and identity encoding, spanning queries using
  language, pixel, and synthetic embeddings. These capabilities, in turn, e
 nable downstream applications in augmented and virtual reality, interactiv
 e scene editing, and robotics. Across different tasks, our method achieves
  performance comparable to or better than training-based approaches, while
  significantly reducing computational cost. The project page is at https:/
