Weiyu Sun

Hello! My name is Weiyu Sun.

My interests are different kinds of health-related algorithms (e.g., video-based heart rate information process) and their practical applications (e.g., using these techniques for healthcare), and Trustworthy AI (e.g., the reliability of different healthcare-related algorithms).

I earned my B.E. and M.E. degrees in Electornic & Computer Engineering at Nanjing University, where I mainly dealt with healthcare applications (e.g., non-contact health information processing, such as heart rate and ECG).

I also conducted remote teamwork as a visiting student with the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (Guangzhou).

Currently I'm going to chase my Ph.D degree at Georgia Institute of Technology this Fall! Wishing me a smooth journey!

Accepted by ACM MM 2023
project page

We reveal two characteristic domain conflict issues in the DNN rPPG (remote photoplethysmography) model training, and propose a new training framework (DOHA) to deal with these conflicts and enhance the performance of rPPG models.
