VCR: Learning Valid Contextual Representation for Incomplete Wearable Signals
Wearable devices enable continuous health monitoring from multimodal signals, but real-world deployment is hindered by limited labeled data and pervasive sensor incompleteness. While large-scale self-supervised pretraining reduces label dependence, most existing methods assume full modality availability. Current approaches for handling modality missingness often reconstruct entire absent signals, which can encourage hallucinating modality-specific details that are not inferable from the observed sensor signals and degrade robustness. We propose VCR, a self-supervised framework that learns to extract valid representations robust to modality missingness. VCR employs an orthogonal tokenizer ...
