When Temporal Perturbations Act Like Sensor Biases: Label-Free Auditing of Wearable Activity Recognizers

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.

WearableQA: A Benchmark for Health Reasoning over Real-World Wearable Data

WearableQA is a new benchmark that tests AI systems on health reasoning using real-world wearable data from 200 users, each with up to 500 days of daily measurements. It contains 4,084 ten‑option multiple‑choice questions derived from wearable time series, blood biomarkers, and demographics, and is organized into 16 question types that distinguish data‑driven computation from physiological interpretation and single‑signal from cross‑signal reasoning. Evaluation of 14 large language models shows wide performance gaps, indicating that the benchmark remains challenging and useful for diagnosing model capabilities.

SOTER: A Generative Time-Series Foundation Model for Wearable Human Physiological Signals

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.
