Models Got Talent: Identifying High Performing Wearable Human Activity Recognition Models Without Training

The paper investigates the use of Zero Cost Proxies (ZCPs) to identify high‑performing wearable Human Activity Recognition (HAR) models without full training. Eight ZCPs were evaluated across six benchmark HAR datasets, showing that the top‑predicted architectures achieve performance within 7% of fully trained models, and training the top‑10 predictions reaches within 2% of full training. This demonstrates that ZCPs can significantly reduce computational costs while maintaining competitive accuracy in sensor‑based HAR tasks.

Gravity-Aware Hierarchical Routing for Lightweight SensorLLM on Human Activity Recognition

arXiv:2606. 04019v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent studies on sensor-language alignment have shown that two-stage frameworks can improve the semantic modeling ability of wearable-sensor human activity recognition (HAR), where SensorLLM-style methods first perform motion-to-language alignment and then fine-tune the model for downstream tasks.

Coverage-Aware Virtual IMU Augmentation for Low-Resource Human Activity Recognition

The paper introduces a coverage-aware virtual IMU augmentation framework for human activity recognition. It selects diverse and scarce data points in a learned sensor embedding space, generates virtual IMU samples as prompts, ranks them by proximity and label consistency, and incorporates them into training with reliability-based weights. Experiments on public benchmarks demonstrate consistent performance gains over existing baselines, with ablation studies confirming the framework’s effectiveness.
