The paper presents HEAR, a dual‑task Transformer that learns to assess heartbeat observability from mmWave radar phase spectra and simultaneously estimates heart rate. Using a controllable FMCW simulator, the authors generate labeled data where observability is defined by the agreement between the dominant heartbeat‑band peak and the known heart rate. Trained only on simulated data, HEAR transfers zero‑shot to real‑world datasets at 60 and 120 GHz, enabling selective heart‑rate estimation that dramatically reduces error and achieves sub‑50 ms latency on edge hardware.

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.

The paper introduces SpectrumAudit, a label‑sealed auditing method for wearable human‑activity recognition models that uses phase‑randomized full‑window stimuli to probe sensor biases. By replaying the DC component and a zero‑mean residual on held‑out subjects, the audit demonstrates significant accuracy drops across 27 victim models, with DC perturbations proving more harmful than AC in most cases. The study also shows that the audit can distinguish between persistent sensor offsets and zero‑mean variations under a fixed peak‑budget.
arXiv:2608. 20322v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Despite their growing importance for contact-free radio frequency (RF) based healthcare monitoring, different radio technologies such as frequency-modulated continuous wave (FMCW) radar, impulse radio ultra-wideband (IR-UWB), and Wi-Fi sensing are rarely compared under identical deployment conditions, as existing studies typically differ in hardware, datasets, and evaluation methodologies.

The paper introduces Heartian, a physiology‑aware framework that augments Gaussian head avatars with cardiac‑cycle‑dependent albedo modulation, enabling the encoding of remote photoplethysmography (rPPG) signals. By supervising with synchronized contact PPG, the method models the cardiac waveform as a sum of two Gaussians and learns per‑frame spatial residuals via a lightweight MLP. Experiments on 152 stationary recordings from UBFC‑rPPG, PURE, and MMPD show heart‑rate estimation errors as low as 0.29 bpm MAE and 0.38 % MAPE, while preserving reconstruction quality with negligible PSNR loss.
