Robust 4D Driving Scene Reconstruction from Imperfect Visual Priors

Reconstructing 4D driving scenes in the wild (e.g., internet and AI-generated videos) is critical for diverse autonomous driving simulation. While recent Gaussian Scene Graph (GSG) methods achieve impressive visual quality, they heavily rely on precise priors, such as accurate camera poses and LiDAR depth, or manual annotations. When initialized with noisy priors estimated from in-the-wild videos, existing GSG methods suffer from optimization ambiguity (e.g., entangling camera and agent poses) and topological failures (e.g., missing objects), causing severe rendering artifacts. To enable robust in-the-wild reconstruction, we introduce Adaptive Gaussian Graph (AGG), a self-correcting 4D framework. Our Semantically-Guided Tick-Tock Strategy leverages 2D foundation features to explicitly decouple static background and camera pose updates from dynamic agent learning. Concurrently, our Adaptive Topology Evolution module actively rectifies graph structures by spawning missing agents, reassigning misclassified Gaussians, and pruning false positives. To rigorously evaluate this in-the-wild setting, we introduce Wild-30, a challenging benchmark of internet and generative videos. Extensive experiments on KITTI and Wild-30 validate that AGG consistently outperforms state-of-the-art approaches in visual fidelity and robustness under noisy priors.

OmniSCS: Omni Safety-Critical Scenario Synthesis for Autonomous Driving via a Fully Editable Driving World

The synthesis of safety-critical scenarios (SCS) and their evaluation through closed-loop simulations are crucial for developing robust autonomous driving systems. A key aspect of this process involves editing agent states in both appearance and trajectory levels within existing scenes. However, current methods struggle to preserve data fidelity after scene editing and fail to efficiently generate high-quality SCS through such modifications. To overcome these limitations, we propose OmniSCS, an innovative system that generates photorealistic SCS with high physical fidelity while enabling closed-loop testing in synthetic environments. OmniSCS comprises two key modules: 1) A Fully Editable Driving World Construction module that maintains high-fidelity agent appearance and background during scene editing via dual-strategy agent reconstruction and depth-refinement background reconstruction methods. 2) A SCS Synthesis module that facilitates object insertion and agent trajectory editing to synthesize diverse SCS while preserving data fidelity. Experiments on nuScenes, Waymo, and KITTI datasets show that OmniSCS outperforms state-of-the-art methods in edited scene fidelity. We further validate its ability to enhance autonomous driving algorithms and support real-time (13Hz) closed-loop testing. Overall, OmniSCS provides a safer, more effective, and cost-efficient solution for SCS optimization and testing in autonomous driving.

One World, Dual Timeline: Decoupled Spatio-Temporal Gaussian Scene Graph for 4D Cooperative Driving Reconstruction

Reconstructing dynamic scenes from Vehicle-to-Infrastructure Cooperative Autonomous Driving (VICAD) data is fundamentally complicated by temporal asynchrony: vehicle and infrastructure cameras operate on independent clocks, capturing the same dynamic agent such as cars and pedestrians at different physical times. Existing Gaussian Scene Graph methods implicitly assume synchronized observations and assign a single pose per agent per frame, which is an assumption that breaks in cooperative settings, where the resulting gradient conflicts cause severe ghosting on dynamic agents. We identify this as a representation-level failure, not an optimization artifact: we prove that any single-timeline formulation incurs an irreducible photometric loss scaling quadratically with agent velocity and cross-source time offset. To resolve this, we propose Dust (DecoUpled Spatio-Temporal) Gaussian Scene Graph for 4D Cooperative Driving Reconstruction. DUST Gaussian Scene Graph shares a canonical Gaussian set per agent for appearance consistency, while maintaining decouple pose trajectories aligned to each source's true capture timestamps. We prove that this decoupling enables the pose-gradient kernel block-diagonal, eliminating cross-source interference entirely. To make Dust practical, we further introduce a static anchor-based pose correction pipeline that corrects spatio misalignment between vehicle and infrastructure annotations, and a pose-regularized joint optimization scheme that prevents trajectory jitter and drift during early training. On 26 sequences from V2X-Seq, DUST achieves state-of-the-art performance, improving dynamic-area PSNR by 3.2 dB over the strongest baseline and reducing Fréchet Video Distance by 37.7%, with keeping robustness under larger temporal asynchrony.
