Summary

Treats IMU-HAR as a whole-pipeline optimisation problem run by LLM agents: a Data Agent (source selection, preprocessing, windowing, sampling), a Model Agent (architecture + training choices) and an Augmentation Agent (IMU augmentation and synthetic-data strategies), composed by an Orchestrator, with an LLM-based Judge that filters candidate edits before they are run. Search is iterative hill-climbing over bounded code/config edits, keeping candidates that raise Macro-F1. Evaluated on 10 IMU-HAR datasets (LOSO) and 3 held-out datasets (leave-one-dataset-out): +1.2 to +12.9 Macro-F1 over the best non-agent baselines in LOSO and +2.3 to +8.9 in LODO.
