A wearable vision-based system for detecting hand-object interactions in individuals with cervical spinal cord injury: First results in the home environment
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Cervical spinal cord injury (cSCI) causes the paralysis of upper and lower limbs and trunk, significantly reducing quality of life and community participation of the affected individuals. The functional use of the upper limbs is the top recovery priority of people with cSCI and wearable vision-based systems have recently been proposed to extract objective outcome measures that reflect hand function in a natural context. However, previous studies were conducted in a controlled environment and may not be indicative of the actual hand use of people with cSCI living in the community. Thus, we propose a deep learning algorithm for automatically detecting hand-object interactions in egocentric videos recorded by participants with cSCI during their daily activities at home. The proposed approach is able to detect hand-object interactions with good accuracy (F1-score up to 0.82), demonstrating the feasibility of this system in uncontrolled situations (e.g., unscripted activities and variable illumination). This result paves the way for the development of an automated tool for measuring hand function in people with cSCI living in the community.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
