Aggregate, Don't Adapt: Subject-Level Posterior Aggregation and Transductive Calibration for Cross-Site Parkinsonian Gait Severity

The paper reports the winning solution to the MoCha 2026 Parkinsonian Gait Benchmark, achieving a macro‑F1 score of 0.6945 on unseen clinical sites. The approach relies on a frozen public motion encoder followed by a single 4×512 linear layer, and gains are largely attributed to three key steps: exact replication of the benchmark’s head recipe, averaging per‑walk posteriors at the subject level, and a label‑free transductive calibration of feature means and decision thresholds. Extensive ablation studies show that fine‑tuning the encoder or using alternative encoders does not improve performance, and the subject‑level aggregation is identified as the primary contributor to the top score.

Towards Context-Aware Clinical Motion Understanding in Daily Living at Home: Freezing of Gait Detection with Egocentric Vision

arXiv:2608. 13283v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Understanding motion in daily living requires context beyond kinematics, because similar inertial patterns during activities of daily living (ADLs) can reflect intentional stopping, object interaction, or pathological movement impairment.

Towards Context-Aware Clinical Motion Understanding in Daily Living at Home: Freezing of Gait Detection with Egocentric Vision

Understanding motion in daily living requires context beyond kinematics, because similar inertial patterns during activities of daily living (ADLs) can reflect intentional stopping, object interaction, or pathological movement impairment. Egocentric vision provides task-related context that may help disambiguate these cases.
