AIGC has shown remarkable success in CV and NLP, and has recently demonstrated promising potential in the wireless domain. However, significant data imbalance exists across RF modalities, with abundant WiFi data but scarce mmWave and RFID data due to high acquisition cost. This makes it difficult to train high-quality generative models for these data-scarce modalities. In this work, we propose RF-CMG, a diffusion-based cross-modal generative method that leverages data-rich WiFi signals to synthesize high-fidelity RF data for scarce modalities including mmWave and RFID. The key insight of RF-CMG is to decouple cross-modal generation into high-frequency guidance and low-frequency constraint, which respectively learn high-frequency distribution from limited target modality data and preserve the underlying physical structure via low-frequency constraints during generation. On this basis, we introduce a Modality-Guided Embedding (MGE) module to steer the reverse diffusion trajectory toward the target high-frequency distribution, and a Low-Frequency Modality Consistency (LFMC) module to progressively enforce low-frequency constraints to suppress the accumulation of source-modality structural biases during inference, enabling high-quality target-modality generation. Performance comparison with several prevalent generative models demonstrates that RF-CMG achieves superior performance in synthesizing RFID and mmWave signals. We further showcase the effectiveness of the data generated by RF-CMG in gesture recognition tasks, and analyze the impact of the proportion of synthetic data on downstream performance.

Human activity recognition serves as the foundation for various emerging applications. In recent years, researchers have used collaborative sensing of multi-source sensors to capture complex and dynamic human activities. However, multimodal human activity sensing typically encounters highly heterogeneous data across modalities and label scarcity, resulting in an application gap between existing solutions and real-world needs. In this paper, we propose CLMM, a general contrastive learning framework for human activity recognition that achieves effective multimodal recognition with limited labeled data. CLMM employs a novel two-stage training strategy. In the first stage, CLMM employs a CNN-DiffTransformer encoder to capture cross-modal shared information by extracting local and global features. Meanwhile, a hard-positive samples weighting algorithm enhances gradient propagation to reinforce shared learning. In the second stage, a dual-branch architecture combining quality-guided attention and bidirectional gated units captures modality-specific information, while a primary-auxiliary collaborative training strategy fuses both shared and modality-specific information. Experimental results on three public datasets demonstrate that CLMM significantly improves state-of-the-art baselines in both recognition accuracy and convergence performance.
