## Abstract (arXiv)

Recent advances in 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) have enabled significant progress in dense dynamic Simultaneous Localization And Mapping (SLAM). Prevailing methods typically discard predefined dynamic objects, ignoring that transiently static objects offer valuable geometric constraints for pose estimation. A recent work attempts to leverage this potential by employing per-pixel uncertainty maps to quantify the magnitude of motion. While this approach enables transiently static objects to enhance pose estimation, it erroneously integrates these objects into the static map, resulting in persistent artifacts. Moreover, its reliance on purely geometric information leads to ambiguous object boundaries in the uncertainty maps. To overcome these limitations, we present DL-SLAM, a monocular Gaussian Splatting SLAM system built upon a novel dual-level probabilistic framework. Our method computes dynamic probability maps by combining semantic and geometric information. These pixel-level probabilities are lifted to 3D and aggregated to derive an object-level dynamic probability for each instance. Object-level probability enables the categorical pruning of dynamic Gaussians, resulting in an artifact-free static map. The static map, in turn, provides a geometrically consistent guidance to refine the pixel-wise probabilities, enhancing their reliability. Experimental results demonstrate that DL-SLAM outperforms existing approaches, improving tracking accuracy by up to 13% while generating high-fidelity semantic maps.
