3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) has emerged as a promising technique for novel view synthesis. However, 3DGS requires dense input views to achieve high-quality rendering. In sparse-view scenarios, 3DGS often prones to overfitting, resulting in noticeable artifacts and degraded rendering quality. Previous methods explore to address this issue by introducing additional priors (e.g. depth priors) or integrating regularization techniques (e.g. Dropout). However, these methods are often applied without principled guidance. In particular, prior-based augmentation typically samples novel viewpoints randomly, while Dropout-based regularization randomly removes Gaussians. The compounded randomness introduces uncertainty and instability, limiting the fidelity of novel view synthesis. In this paper, we propose a novel method for sparse-view 3DGS that incorporates Fisher Information to quantitatively guide the utilization of geometric priors and regularization. Specifically, our method comprises two key components: (1) Stereo augmentation with Fisher Information. By leveraging Fisher Information, we actively select most informative supporting views and use depth priors to curate reliable pseudo ground truths, which reduces randomness in augmentation and improves stability and rendering fidelity; (2) Uncertainty-aware regularization. We reduce the instability of Dropout-based regularization by using Fisher Information to quantitatively measure the uncertainty of each 3D Gaussian, and adaptively adjust the removal probability, leading to more stable and effective regularization. With these two components, our method effectively mitigates overfitting and improves the stability of optimization in sparse-view 3DGS, resulting in superior rendering fidelity. Extensive experiments show that our method achieves state-of-the-art performance in sparse-view novel view synthesis benchmarks.
