MICCAI Lab, Shanghai

Hi! My name is Zhiwei Yang. I’m a Ph.D. student at the Academy for Engineering and Technology of Fudan University. I am now working on Multimodal Perception, Weakly-supervised Learning and Medical Image Processing.

🌈 I am actively seeking intership and full-time opportunities in MLLMs (Multimodal Large Language Models) applications！ Please feel free to reach out via email zwyang.research@gmail.com. You can also get to know me from My CV.

I am currently a member of the Shanghai Key Laboratory of Medical Image Computing and Computer Assisted Intervention MICCAI Lab, co-supervised by Prof. Shuo Wang and Prof. Zhijian Song. Previously, I received my B.E. degree in Mechanical Engineering from Hohai University, Nanjing, China, in 2021, supervised by Prof. Yanjie Wang.

📚 My research interest includes Multimodal Perception, Weakly-supervised Learning and Medical Image Processing. I have published 15+ papers at the top international AI conferences and journals such as Nature BME (IF=27.7), CVPR (Oral), AAAI (Oral), ICCV, MICCAI, TMM, etc.

My works include ENDO-KED, SeCo, ExCEL, MoRe, and UniA.
