MyoMechanix is a multimodal dataset and framework for action quality assessment that incorporates muscle activity and other physiological signals alongside visual data. It contains over 7,500 samples of 20 weight‑loaded actions from 38 subjects, with synchronized RGB video, 3D pose, sEMG, and additional signals. The accompanying Fitness Knowledge Graph structures expert annotations into relationships among actions, phases, key steps, errors, and corrective feedback, enabling compositional scoring and interpretable assessment through the CUBIST engine. The project also introduces MyoMechanix‑AQA, MyoMechanix‑VideoQA, and a novel MyoMechanix‑Video2EMG task, demonstrating that multimodal sensing and structured representations improve performance, interpretability, and error attribution.

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...
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.

The paper introduces DyGCN, a Geometry-Constrained Dynamic Hypergraph Convolutional Network designed for skeleton-based action recognition. It features a Dynamic Hypergraph Construction Network with Contrastive Score Refinement (DyGCT) that includes a GeoHC module for action-specific hyperedge construction and a CSR module that refines pairwise compatibility scores via prototype-based contrastive learning during training. Experiments on NTU RGB+D, NTU RGB+D 120, and Northwestern-UCLA datasets demonstrate state‑of‑the‑art performance, and the source code is publicly available.
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.
