Human-JEPA: A Human-Centric Vision Model that Perceives and Anticipates
Machines that understand humans should perceive the present and anticipate the future. Existing human-centric vision model are pretrained on human images, set the state of the art in static dense perception, so motion and anticipation are out of reach. Here we present Human-JEPA, a human-centric vision model trained on video by anchored forecasting: dense targets are pinned to a frozen copy of the initialization, preventing a silent collapse of dense perception, and block masks are replaced by a pure past-to-future split, avoiding a five-point action tax and a seventeen-point re-identification
CanonicalPhys: Pose-Robust Remote Photoplethysmography via Canonical-Space Priors
Deep remote photoplethysmography (rPPG) attains sub-bpm heart-rate error on frontal, stationary faces yet degrades sharply under head pose: on MMPD, the state-of-the-art FactorizePhys backbone's MAE grows $1.60\times$ from frontal ($|\text{yaw}|{<}15^\circ$) to large-yaw ($|\text{yaw}|{\geq}45^\circ$) frames. We argue that pose is a \emph{coordinate-structural} nuisance rather than a data-augmentation problem: in image coordinates the same pixel maps to different anatomy at different poses, blocking three priors otherwise natural for rPPG, namely the dichromatic reflection model, pulse-phase i
