One Residual with Three Reuses: A Wristband Front End for Gesture Sensing

arXiv:2608. 16542v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Continuous wrist-worn hand sensing for gesture interfaces and motor symptom monitoring needs an always-on front end that fits inside a coin-cell power budget while pairing a micro-electro-mechanical-systems (MEMS) inertial measurement unit (IMU) with a 60 GHz frequency-modulated continuous-wave (FMCW) radar to stay robust under occlusion and on-body drift.

LiD-GLM: Lipschitz-constrained Deep Generalized Linear Models

arXiv:2608. 16340v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The combination of traditional statistical models and neural network (NN) components into semi-structured hybrid models is an intriguing approach to construct models that, ideally, combine traditional interpretability with the unprecedented flexibility of NNs.
