ReshotAI/gaussian-painters

Extends 3D Gaussian Splatting to synthesize 2D images through a single-camera COLMAP setup with sparse point initialization, enabling creative effects like steganography and lenticular imaging. The approach samples 100 keypoints from input images as the initial point cloud, then leverages standard Gaussian Splatting optimization to reconstruct the image while supporting view-dependent effects via spherical harmonics. Includes dataset generation scripts (`create_dataset.py`, `create_dataset2.py`, etc.) that prepare synthetic training data and integrate with the SIBR visualizer for real-time optimization monitoring.
