CIG-MAE is a self‑supervised framework for WiFi‑based human action recognition that uses a cross‑modal masked autoencoder to reconstruct both amplitude and phase of Channel State Information. It introduces an adaptive, information‑guided masking strategy that focuses on high‑density time‑frequency regions and employs a Barlow Twins regularizer to align cross‑modal representations without negative samples. Experiments on three public datasets show that CIG‑MAE outperforms state‑of‑the‑art SSL methods and even surpasses a fully supervised baseline, highlighting its data efficiency, robustness, and generalization.

The paper introduces a new evaluation protocol for deep multivariate imputation models on wearable device data, addressing the issue of structured missingness where sensor features drop out together. Using a Garmin smartwatch dataset from an epilepsy patient, the authors generate realistic block-missing patterns from training data and show that matching the training protocol to this distribution reduces BRITS’ mean absolute error by 43%. They also extend BRITS with time‑of‑day encoding and compare it to linear interpolation and SAITS, finding that no single model dominates and that model rankings vary with evaluation design.

Time-series foundation models have demonstrated strong cross-domain transfer, yet their common architectural assumptions remain poorly aligned with wearable physiological signals, which are multichann...
SOTER is a generative foundation model designed for wearable physiological time‑series data. It integrates cross‑channel coupling, spectrum‑guided expert specialization, and continuous‑time latent evolution, using a spatial feature‑aware backbone, a PSD‑guided mixture‑of‑experts layer, and a neural controlled differential equation decoder. Trained on 226 billion time points from five public datasets, SOTER outperforms baselines in zero‑shot forecasting, classification, and imputation across six benchmarks, and remains robust to additive noise.

arXiv:2608. 06122v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Inspired by recent evidence that transformer architectures benefit from Self-PreTraining (SPT) on long-context benchmarks, we investigate whether similar gains extend to multimodal, multivariate, and even simple univariate medical time series.
