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.

PhysioAI introduces a clinical knowledge‑guided framework that injects structured physiotherapy knowledge into skeleton‑based action recognition models. By combining graph‑based spatiotemporal modeling with semantic anchors derived from a Clinical Knowledge Dictionary encoded via a frozen CLIP model, PhysioAI improves training of skeleton representations while requiring only skeleton inputs at inference. In subject‑disjoint evaluations, it outperforms existing methods on KiMoRe, Hard‑67, and UI‑PRMD benchmarks, achieving up to 99.03% accuracy on KiMoRe overall.

MuyBridge is an on-device system that estimates an athlete’s segmental center of mass (CoM) trajectory from a single phone camera video stream. It combines a compact 2D pose network with a distilled monocular depth network, fusing their outputs through anatomical and physical priors to produce metric CoM estimates without requiring 3D or task‑specific supervision. On the AthletePose3D dataset, MuyBridge achieves 33–41 mm vertical CoM error and 2.3–6.6 % absolute‑relative range error, delivering CoM estimates at 63 FPS on an iPhone 15 with asynchronous depth updates.
