Reconstructing high-fidelity 3D building models from UAV imagery is essential for large-scale digital twin development. However, existing 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) techniques often struggle with building facades, failing to capture sharp geometric transitions. To address this, we propose a semantic edge regularization framework that supervises 3DGS to produce crisp architectural boundaries. Our method leverages SAM 3 to generate precise building masks, from which we extract architecturally significant edges. During training, we align rendered image gradients with these extracted edges, forcing the Gaussians to converge into sharp structural geometries. Evaluations across campus environments, dense urban centers, and custom residential datasets demonstrate significant improvements in edge fidelity without requiring architectural modifications to the 3DGS pipeline. Our approach proves robust across diverse building types, roof geometries, and urban densities.
3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) achieves high-fidelity novel view synthesis in real-time; however its training efficiency and representation compactness are hindered by excessive primitive proliferation. To address this challenge, we formulate the structural evolution of 3DGS as a g…
Techniques for modeling 3D scenes from image collections, such as 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS), are capable of generating high-quality novel views by leveraging graphics primitives with view-dependent appearance. In 3DGS, spherical harmonic (SH) are employed to model view-depende…
3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) achieves high-quality real-time rendering by representing a scene with a large collection of anisotropic Gaussian primitives. However, complex scenes often require millions of Gaussians, resulting in substantial storage and rendering costs. Existing c…

Existing 3D generative models predominantly rely on implicit volumetric representations, which enforce watertight topology and struggle to represent thin-shell and non-manifold geometries such as garments. Geometry image-based approaches offer a surface-centric alternative, but e…
