Wearable Foundation Models Should Go Beyond Static Encoders

Wearable foundation models (WFMs), trained on large volumes of data collected by affordable, always-on devices, have demonstrated strong performance on short-term, well-defined health monitoring tasks, including activity recognition, fitness tracking, and cardiovascular signal assessment. However, most existing WFMs primarily map short temporal windows to predefined labels via static encoders, emp...
