Wi-Fi-based human activity recognition has advanced substantially, but most existing methods assume a closed set of activities and require labeled Wi-Fi samples for every target class, limiting their ability to recognize unseen activities. We present Zero-Fi, a contrastive signal-language alignment framework for zero-shot Wi-Fi-based human activity recognition.

arXiv:2606. 01834v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Human Action Recognition (HAR) using WiFi Channel State Information (CSI) has gained increasing attention due to its non-contact, low-cost, and privacy-preserving nature.
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.

Zero-shot learning (ZSL) for inertial measurement unit (IMU)-based human activity recognition (HAR) faces a central challenge: bridging the gap between sensor embeddings and semantic class representations. We systematically evaluate seven configurations combining three inference methods with two training pipelines on the PAMAP2 dataset, using 14 seen and 4 unseen activity classes with subjects 108 and 109 held out for testing.
BayaHAR is a lightweight, gradient‑free framework that adapts pretrained sensor‑based Human Activity Recognition (HAR) classifiers to new users by converting them into Prototypical Networks with prior prototypes that maintain zero‑shot performance. It introduces closed‑form Bayesian prototype estimation for labeled calibration data and extends this approach to weakly labeled data, requiring only activity labels. With just three seconds of calibration per activity, supervised adaptation boosts test macro‑F1 on unseen users by 2.76–33.44 percentage points across four datasets, while weakly supervised adaptation improves by 0.56–32.13 points, enabling efficient on‑device personalization.

arXiv:2607. 03196v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: WiFi-based human pose estimation (HPE) enables the detection and interpretation of human body positions and movements without the need for wearable devices while preserving individual privacy concerns.
The paper presents a deep learning‑enhanced Wi‑Fi sensing system that uses only a single transceiver pair to achieve real‑time human pose estimation and localization. By leveraging prior information and temporal correlation as side information, the system reduces estimation error under hardware constraints. Experimental results show an average pose error of 0.2189 m and a localization error of 0.6124 m while running at 42 fps on commodity hardware.
HALO is a heterogeneity‑aware, language‑aligned foundation model for inertial measurement unit (IMU) based human activity recognition. It uses a two‑stage training process: first, a self‑supervised encoder learns to handle diverse sensor configurations and natural‑language sensor descriptions; second, the encoder is aligned with text embeddings through synonym‑aware contrastive learning, enabling open‑set recognition via cosine similarity. Trained on ten public HAR datasets, HALO outperforms five state‑of‑the‑art baselines across eight metrics while using only ~35 M parameters, and improves zero‑shot open‑set accuracy by 13.7 percentage points over 87 training labels.

The paper explores person identification using millimeter‑wave point clouds beyond traditional gait analysis, focusing on seven activities of daily living (ADLs). It introduces the mm‑ADL dataset of 11 subjects and proposes an activity‑conditioned framework that routes each clip to an activity‑specific identity expert via a supervised mixture of experts. Experiments show that hard routing improves closed‑set ID accuracy from 62.1% to 68.0% and significantly boosts re‑identification metrics, demonstrating the benefit of activity context under controlled indoor conditions.
