Rotation-Invariant Multi-IMU Activity Recognition under Independent Per-Location Orientation Shifts

Excerpt

arXiv:2608.15621v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Human Activity Recognition (HAR) with self-administered wearables, such as at-home rehabilitation and exercise monitoring, often requires reattaching inertial measurement units (IMUs) across sessions. In multi-IMU settings, this can induce independent orientation offsets across body locations, a deployment shift that conventional scalar HAR models do not structurally handle. Existing remedies rely on rotation augmentation, whose robustness depends
