Light but Sharp: SlimSTAD for Real-Time Action Detection from Sensor Data

AAAI 2026technical

Sensory Temporal Action Detection (STAD) aims to localize and classify human actions within long, untrimmed sequences captured by non-visual sensors such as WiFi or inertial measurement units (IMUs). Unlike video-based TAD, STAD poses unique challenges due to the low-dimensional, noisy, and heteroge
