Deformable Surgical Scene Reconstruction with Gaussian Life-Cycle Modeling

EH-SurGS reconstructs deformable surgical scenes from stereo endoscopic video with 3D Gaussian splatting. It assigns each 3D Gaussian a life cycle so irreversible deformations like tissue shearing can be represented, and uses an adaptive motion hierarchy to warp only deformable regions, improving both reconstruction fidelity and rendering speed.
