3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) is increasingly explored as an input representation for 3D perception. Yet it remains unclear how current 3D architectures exploit heterogeneous Gaussian attributes. This ambiguity makes accuracy hard to interpret and limits principled architecture design for 3DGS perception. However, existing object-level 3DGS datasets lack the appearance variation or artifact control needed for systematic attribute-level analysis. We introduce COGS, a large-scale 3DGS dataset with 15,675 artifact-filtered and appearance-rich objects across 40 categories. Built on COGS, we establish COGS-Bench for object classification and attribute-usage diagnosis, complemented by external validation. Our benchmark shows that Gaussian attributes are not uniformly beneficial: selected subsets can outperform the full attribute set, and the effects of appearance, opacity, and covariance-related attribute combinations vary substantially across architectures. We further study this finding with HALO, a reference model that preserves attribute-specific evidence before hierarchical aggregation. Experiments on COGS-Bench and external 3DGS datasets demonstrate that COGS supports systematic diagnosis of 3DGS attribute usage, while HALO highlights the value of role-preserving attribute organization.

Temporal Knowledge Graph (TKG) reasoning remains challenging to characterize with conventional flat representations due to its intrinsic heterogeneous structure. Existing multi-geometry approaches face two key bottlenecks: 1) the Riemannian depth barrier driven by numerical instability, which restricts models to shallow architectures; and 2) gate collapse, where adaptive fusion mechanisms suffer from gradient starvation and degenerate into single-geometry solutions. To this end, we propose MAGIC (Multi-geometry Annealing Graph Interaction with Consensus). Our framework introduces a Tangent-Residual Engine in multi-geometric spaces, which enables the first stable 8-layer geometric evolution and reveals a phenomenon termed Geometric Annealing, where manifold curvature spontaneously evolves from semantic flatness in shallow layers to structural complexity in deeper layers. We further design an explicit reasoning module with structural consensus, leveraging geometric invariants and structural priors to regulate gradient flow, prevent collapse, and ensure robust synergy across Hyperbolic, Spherical, and Euclidean spaces. Experiments show that MAGIC achieves state-of-the-art performance in TKG reasoning, improving MRR by up to 2.9 points.
