## Abstract (arXiv)

Class-guided 3D object generation is important for intelligent content creation, virtual environments, and digital asset design. Although 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) offers an explicit and render-efficient representation, directly generating 3D Gaussian objects is difficult because Gaussian primitives are unordered, variable-sized, locally dense, and highly sensitive to rendering. Existing 3DGS generation methods usually depend on multi-view synthesis, reconstruction, or lifted 2D priors, fusing information mainly from observed views rather than modeling the intrinsic structural distribution of 3D Gaussian objects. This paper proposes a fusion-aware hierarchical Gaussian patch representation for direct class-guided 3DGS generation with rectified flow. Irregular Gaussian sets are decomposed into canonical local patches and encoded as structured tokens. The resulting hierarchical latent space fuses global class semantics, patch-level geometry and appearance, spatial correspondence, and rendering-sensitive cues. On this basis, we design a structure-aware rectified flow model with patch-position conditioning, global-local coupled velocity prediction, and density-aware velocity weighting, enabling direct latent generation of class-conditioned 3DGS objects within seconds. A render-feedback fusion strategy further aligns latent flow learning with decoded multi-view rendering quality. Experiments show that the proposed method generates 3D Gaussian objects with more coherent geometry, sharper local details, and better multi-view consistency than baseline latent generative models. Ablation studies confirm the contributions of hierarchical information fusion, global-local coupling, density-aware supervision, and render-feedback learning while preserving practical sampling efficiency overall.
