arXiv:2608. 15861v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Fine-grained wrist activity recognition can support applications such as procedural step guidance and context-aware assistance, yet acquiring labeled data for every new task, user, and activity granularity remains a bottleneck.

The paper evaluates six onboarding strategies for federated wearable models on five datasets using a leakage‑controlled protocol that fixes source checkpoints and separates calibration from evaluation. Results show that while average accuracy is high, person‑level performance can drop significantly, with some methods causing negative transfer for certain users. The study highlights that mean accuracy alone is insufficient and provides an auditable benchmark and failure map for future development.

Pattern-recognition control promises a myoelectric prosthesis that responds to many intended gestures rather than one or two, but the promise has stayed in the laboratory. A recogniser trained on one person rarely transfers to the next, and useful performance usually demands a fresh round of labelled calibration from the end user.
arXiv:2608. 05782v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Wearable human activity recognition (HAR) is often limited by the scarcity of labeled sensor data, especially in low-resource, class-imbalanced, and subject-generalization settings.
