CoRoGS: Contextual Gaussian Splatting for Robust Large-Deviation View Synthesis

Novel view synthesis (NVS) under large view deviations remains an underexplored challenge for 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS). In urban scenes with limited training coverage, models often fail to maintain geometric consistency when extrapolating to unseen viewpoints, resulting in severe distortions and degraded rendering quality. We introduce Context-Aware Gaussian Splatting (CoRoGS), a $\textbf{Co}$ntext-aware framework for $\textbf{Ro}$bust large-deviation novel view synthesis (LD-NVS) that embeds contextual reasoning into 3DGS. Instead of treating Gaussians as independent primitives, CoRoGS adopts a contextual formulation that explicitly models inter-Gaussian dependencies. This representation is implemented by constructing a 3D Gaussian graph, which propagates relational geometry and semantics via message passing, resulting in context-aware Gaussian updates. To further maintain structural consistency under substantial view deviation, we incorporate a progressive graph expansion strategy that adaptively grows and prunes Gaussians, leading to more coherent and complete scene reconstructions. Extensive experiments demonstrate that CoRoGS outperforms state-of-the-art 3DGS-based methods, producing higher-quality results. We highlight that CoRoGS robustly handles a wide range of view shifts, including lateral deviations (e.g., lane-level offsets) and cross-level transitions such as from ground-level driving views to elevated perspectives.
