Abstract
The ability to detect which wireless devices are belonging to the same person from Wi-Fi access point (AP) enables many potential Internet-of-Things (IoT) applications, including continuous authentication and user-oriented devices isolation. The existing cryptographic-based solutions are not suitable for IoT devices with limited power and computing capabilities. The development of electronics and chip technology makes it possible to deploy machine learning (ML) algorithms on APs. In this article, we propose an on-body device clustering (OBDC) scheme. First, the OBDC extracts the trajectory and gait patterns from wireless signals when the user is moving. Second, it utilizes a hierarchical clustering algorithm to measure the similarity of wireless signal patterns between devices. Finally, if the devices are clustered into the same cluster, they are considered to be carried by the same person. Our real-world experimental results show that the devices from about 90% of users can be clustered correctly, while maintaining the devices from only 0.7% of users may be clustered into the same cluster with others’ devices incorrectly.

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
