Abstract: gsplat is an open-source library designed for training and developing
Gaussian Splatting methods. It features a front-end with Python bindings
compatible with the PyTorch library and a back-end with highly optimized CUDA
kernels. gsplat offers numerous features that enhance the optimization of
Gaussian Splatting models, which include optimization improvements for speed,
memory, and convergence times. Experimental results demonstrate that gsplat
achieves up to 10% less training time and 4x less memory than the original
implementation. Utilized in several research projects, gsplat is actively
maintained on GitHub. Source code is available at

welcome contributions from the open-source community.
