Ah, so 3DGS is a Neural method?

[two_handfuls]

There is a neural method for computing 3DGS from video or a series of photographs. Rendering 3DGS uses no neural networks as far as I know.

Its not a neural method. Its just differential rendering and backprop

creating a 3DGS scene does require machine learning, but no, technically neural networks are not involved!
