Researchers have developed SAGA, a novel volumetric video compression method that utilizes sparse 4D anchors to represent dynamic scenes. This approach improves upon existing 3D Gaussian Splatting techniques by employing hierarchical anchors in space-time and coordinate-based decoders for generating fine details. SAGA also incorporates a memory mechanism with an orthogonality-informed update strategy to capture long-range dependencies for efficient entropy coding. AI
