• Abstract: Sensing human motions through Inertial Measurement Units (IMUs) embedded in personal devices has enabled significant applications in health and wellness. Labeled IMU data is scarce, however, unlabeled or weakly labeled IMU data can be used to model human motions. For video or text modalities, the "pretrain and adapt" approach utilizes large volumes of unlabeled or weakly labeled data to build a strong feature extractor, followed by adaptation to specific tasks using limited labeled data. However, pretraining methods are poorly understood for IMU data, and pipelines are rarely evaluated on out-of-domain tasks. We propose PRIMUS: a method for PRetraining IMU encoderS that uses a novel pretraining objective that is empirically validated based on downstream performance on both in-domain and out-of-domain datasets. The PRIMUS objective effectively enhances downstream performance by combining self-supervision, multimodal, and nearest-neighbor supervision. With fewer than 500 labeled samples per class, PRIMUS improves test accuracy by up to 15%, compared to state-of-the-art baselines. To benefit the broader community, we have open-sourced our code at github.com/nokia-bell-labs/pretrained-imu-encoders.

  We propose a novel scheme, called Prism, which can obtain high FUP accuracy on mobile devices. The core of Prism is to discover task-aware domains embedded in IMU dataset, and to train a domain-aware model on each identified domain. Results demonstrate that Prism can achieve the best FUP performance with a low latency.

  We focus on data pruning, where some training samples are removed based on the distance to the model classification boundary (i.e., margin) We propose PUMA, a new data pruning strategy that computes the margin using DeepFool. We show that PUMA can be used on top of the current state-of-the-art methodology in robustness, and it is able to significantly improve the model performance unlike the existing data pruning strategies.

  We propose an extensive cut-and-paste strategy (ECAP) to leverage reliable pseudo-labels through data augmentation. ECAP maintains a memory bank of pseudo-labeled target samples throughout training and cut-and-pastes the most confident ones onto the current training batch. We implement ECAP on top of the recent method MIC and boost its performance on two synthetic-to-real domain adaptation benchmarks.

  Few-shot intent detection involves training a deep learning model to classify utterances based on their underlying intents using only a small amount of labeled data. We show that continual pre-training may not be essential, since the overfitting problem of PLMs on this task may not be as serious as expected. To maximize the utilization of the limited available data, we propose a context augmentation method and leverage sequential self-distillation to boost performance.

Numerical experiments on sleep EEG data show that CMMN leads to significant and consistent performance gains independent from the neural network architecture.
