MMGait is a large‑scale multi‑sensor benchmark that aligns visible, infrared, depth, LiDAR, and radar observations at the sequence level, enabling evaluation of single‑modal, cross‑modal, and multi‑modal gait recognition. The study shows that modality rankings shift with probe conditions, cross‑modal alignment remains challenging, and fusion can yield complementary gains. To address the scalability issue of training separate experts, the authors propose Omni‑Modal Gait Recognition and its implementation, OmniGait++, which unifies all recognition settings within a shared identity space using modality‑specific front ends, a shared encoder, and an anchor‑guided fusion module.
whyItMatters":"MMGait provides a common testbed for heterogeneous gait sensing and demonstrates that unified recognition across varying modality availability is feasible, offering a scalable alternative to task‑specific experts."

The paper explores person identification using millimeter‑wave point clouds beyond traditional gait analysis, focusing on seven activities of daily living (ADLs). It introduces the mm‑ADL dataset of 11 subjects and proposes an activity‑conditioned framework that routes each clip to an activity‑specific identity expert via a supervised mixture of experts. Experiments show that hard routing improves closed‑set ID accuracy from 62.1% to 68.0% and significantly boosts re‑identification metrics, demonstrating the benefit of activity context under controlled indoor conditions.

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 investigates whether passive motion traces recorded during selfie capture can serve as an auxiliary signal for detecting spoofing and verifying users in mobile remote identity verification systems. It introduces the CanSelfie dataset, comprising 375 multi‑sensor sequences from 30 participants, and evaluates seven time‑series classifiers and eight anomaly detectors across various sensor configurations. Results show that accelerometer‑only classifiers achieve very low false rejection rates, while certain models achieve low false acceptance rates and high verification accuracy, indicating that selfie‑capture motion is a promising low‑friction evidence channel.
