ArXi:2603.24434v1 Announce Type: new Frailty is a condition in aging medicine characterized by diminished physiological reserve and increased vulnerability to stressors. However, frailty assessment remains subjective, heterogeneous, and difficult to scale in clinical practice. Gait is a sensitive marker of biological aging, capturing multisystem decline before overt disability. Yet the application of modern computer vision to gait-based frailty assessment has been limited by small, imbalanced datasets and a lack of clinically representative benchmarks. In this work, we
