Removing wearables from physiological monitoring also removes their supervision: the signal indicating where and when a stress response occurred. Contactless stress sensing therefore becomes a weakly supervised evidence-localization problem, where a clip-level label must be traced to the body regions and moments that produced it.

Falls are a major health concern for older adults, and wearable sensors have been widely explored for detecting falls and enabling timely intervention. However, real-world falls are extremely rare: collecting 100 of them requires an estimated 100,000 days of monitoring, resulting in severely limited labelled data for training machine learning models.
