Meanwhile, current studies focus mainly on how to improve the detection performance of steady multiple objects or unsteady single objects. In this work, we propose an innovative method for identity-based multi-object vital signs monitoring under unsteady scenarios. The method automatically distinguishes between steady and motion states, and conducts a best-effort vital signs monitoring during unsteady scenarios. To this end, we design a weight vector enhancement method combined with object spatial positioning for differentiating multiple objects, and identify each object according to the gait-based EfficientNet model. We also design a steady-state detector based on the MobileNet-V2 network to find the slots of object keeping steady for vital signs monitoring and then apply the variational mode decomposition (VMD) algorithm to extract the respiratory and heart rates of a single object. The experimental results showed that the mean absolute error of respiratory rate and heart rate decreased to 1.37 bpm and 2.56 bpm respectively in the case of multiple objects. In addition, the steady-state detector achieves close to 98.1% accuracy in recognizing motion types, and the average recognition rate of identity recognition based on gait features reaches about 93.26%.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1145\/3787219","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,2,16]],"date-time":"2026-02-16T15:00:14Z","timestamp":1771254014000},"page":"1-25","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1145\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["mmWave Radar-based Personalized Multi-object Vital Signs Monitoring"],"prefix":"10.1145","volume":"22","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2198-1875","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jiefan","family":"Qiu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Computer Science and Technology, Zhejiang University of Technology, Hangzhou, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4660-8092","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Xingyu","family":"Gao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Microelectronics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, China, and University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0006-0532-9560","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Dongfu","family":"Zhu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Zhejiang University of Technology, Hangzhou, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0003-5968-7214","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mengqi","family":"Jiang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Zhejiang University of Technology, Hangzhou, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0000-9984-5756","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jiahan","family":"Song","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Zhejiang University of Technology, Hangzhou, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0002-6545-1999","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Hailong","family":"Shi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Microelectronics, Chinese Academy of Sciences,  Beijing, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"320","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,5,21]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_1_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s10776-017-0339-2"},{"issue":"2","key":"e_1_3_1_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"173","DOI":"10.11113\/mjfas.v15n2.1287","article-title":"An effect of physical exercise-induced fatigue on the vital sign parameters: A preliminary study","volume":"15","author":"Ahmad Zulkifli","year":"2019","unstructured":"Zulkifli Ahmad, Mohd Najeb Jamaludin, and Kamaruzaman Soeed. 2019.
