GaussianShader: 3D Gaussian Splatting with Shading Functions for Reflective Surfaces

Circle size: training time Figure 1. GaussianShader maintains real-time rendering speed and renders high-fidelity images for both general and reflective surfaces. Ref-NeRF[45] and ENVIDR[27] attempt to handle reflective surfaces, but they suffer from quite time-consuming optimization and slow rendering speed. 3D Gaussian splatting [21] keeps high efficiency but cannot handle such reflective surfaces.
