Abstract
We propose a generalized approach to human gesture recognition based on multiple data modalities such as depth video, articulated pose and speech. In our system, each gesture is decomposed into large-scale body motion and local subtle movements such as hand articulation. The idea of learning at multiple scales is also applied to the temporal dimension, such that a gesture is considered as a set of characteristic motion impulses, or dynamic poses. Each modality is first processed separately in short spatio-temporal blocks, where discriminative data-specific features are either manually extracted or learned. Finally, we employ a Recurrent Neural Network for modeling large-scale temporal dependencies, data fusion and ultimately gesture classification. Our experiments on the 2013 Challenge on Multimodal Gesture Recognition dataset have demonstrated that using multiple modalities at several spatial and temporal scales leads to a significant increase in performance allowing the model to compensate for errors of individual classifiers as well as noise in the separate channels.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
