VeV: Video-Enhanced Vibration Data Augmentation For Structural Difference

Surface-mounted vibration sensing provides non-invasive structural monitoring with high temporal fidelity across diverse ubiquitous computing scenarios such as smart farms, yet structure-borne wave models remain fragile to physical relocation and structural shifts. However, addressing this spatial data discontinuity remains limited by costly manual recalibration, insufficient physical grounding in data-driven synthesis, and substantial sim-to-real gaps in numerical digital twins. To resolve this spatial bottleneck without labor-intensive data recollection, we propose VeV, a physics-consistent spatial augmentation framework that synthesizes vibration responses at unmeasured target coordinates from sparse reference observations by coupling a monocular Vision-Derived Propagation Possibility Map for structural wave-guiding paths with a Visual Feature Map for transient source kinetics and implicit material dynamics. Evaluated on a 1,237 sensor-hour sow pig and piglet farm across disparate structures, VeV reduces waveform reconstruction MSE by over 57.5% compared to data-driven baselines and achieves up to 81.69% zero-shot classification accuracy, while reaching peak performance within…
