The paper introduces a coverage-aware virtual IMU augmentation framework for human activity recognition. It selects diverse and scarce data points in a learned sensor embedding space, generates virtual IMU samples as prompts, ranks them by proximity and label consistency, and incorporates them into training with reliability-based weights. Experiments on public benchmarks demonstrate consistent performance gains over existing baselines, with ablation studies confirming the framework’s effectiveness.
