Meta-Transfer-Learning-Based Multimodal Human Pose Estimation for Lower Limbs
Published on 2025-03-06 by Guoming Du, Haiqi Zhu, Zhen Ding, Hong Huang, Xiaofeng Bie, Feng Jiang @MDPI
Abstract: Accurate and reliable human pose estimation (HPE) is essential in interactive systems, particularly for applications requiring personalized adaptation, such as controlling cooperative robots and wearable exoskeletons, especially for healthcare monitoring equipment. However, continuously maintaining diverse datasets and frequently updating models for individual adaptation are both resource intensive and time-consuming. To address these challenges, we propose a meta-transfer learning framework tha[...]
Our summary: Accurate and reliable human pose estimation is crucial for interactive systems, especially for personalized adaptation in applications like controlling robots and wearable exoskeletons for healthcare monitoring. A meta-transfer learning framework is proposed, integrating multimodal inputs to improve accuracy and stability through knowledge fusion, resolving data alignment issues and enabling seamless integration of different modalities. Additionally, a training and adaptation framework with few-shot learning is introduced for efficient updating of encoders and decoders in real-time applications, demonstrating accurate pose estimations for intra-subject adaptation.

Baby Cry Classification Using Structure-Tuned Artificial Neural Networks with Data Augmentation and MFCC Features
Published on 2025-03-01 by Tayyip Ozcan, Hafize Gungor @MDPI
Abstract: Babies express their needs, such as hunger, discomfort, or sleeplessness, by crying. However, understanding these cries correctly can be challenging for parents. This can delay the baby’s needs, increase parents’ stress levels, and negatively affect the baby’s development. In this paper, an integrated system for the classification of baby sounds is proposed. The proposed method includes data augmentation, feature extraction, hyperparameter tuning, and mo[...]
Our summary: Classification of baby sounds using structure-tuned artificial neural networks with data augmentation and MFCC features resulted in a 90% accuracy rate, offering an effective solution for understanding baby cries and addressing their needs.
