RevalExo is a new benchmark for locomotion mode recognition that focuses on functional daily activities performed by older adults and clinical cohorts. It includes 27 participants from three groups—healthy older adults, stroke survivors, and older adults with probable sarcopenia—recorded with lower-body IMUs and, for a subset, synchronized egocentric video. The dataset offers 10.1 hours of frame‑level annotations across 11 locomotion modes, and the authors evaluate unimodal, multimodal, cross‑population, and cross‑modal recognition challenges, finding that sensor fusion improves performance but transitions and generalization remain difficult.

The paper introduces GaitMoE, an action‑detection based mixture‑of‑experts framework for occluded gait recognition, leveraging temporal and action experts to infer missing body parts from adjacent frames and gait cycles. It also presents a new Occluded Gait database (OccGait) with diverse occlusion scenarios and annotations, and demonstrates superior performance on OccGait, OccCASIA‑B, Gait3D, and GREW datasets.

arXiv:2606. 27918v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: As a prominent symptom of Parkinson's disease (PD), turning impairment is evaluated through parameters such as turning angle, duration, and particularly, the number of steps required to complete a turn, which directly reflects motor dysfunction.

Muscle activity is fundamental to human movement, and understanding its patterns is critical for injury prevention and rehabilitation. Conventional muscle activity monitoring relies on specialized sen...
Radar-based human pose estimation has focused on improving learning algorithms while representing the body as unconstrained keypoint coordinates. We address the underexplored dimension of anatomical fidelity by integrating a full-body skeletal model into a differentiable, end-to-end trainable radar-based pose estimation framework, in which the pose network is supervised through forward kinematics while subject-specific geometry is fitted beforehand.
Pose2Muscle is a pose-driven framework that estimates discrete muscle activity states without requiring surface electromyography (sEMG) during inference. It reformulates muscle estimation as a structured prediction problem, using multi-scale spatio-temporal attention and a directed acyclic graph-based decoder to capture motion patterns and maintain multiple candidate hypotheses. The authors introduce the PoseEMG-43 dataset, comprising 2,992 movement instances from 43 daily-life actions performed by 14 participants, and demonstrate that Pose2Muscle outperforms baseline methods with high accuracy and correlation metrics.
