Performance on darker skin tones

Open ubblechristophe opened this issue 5 years ago • 1 comments

Hi there! thanks for this great work it is really impressive!

By any chance have you ever tested these solutions on darker skin tones? It seems it is a major limitation of rPPG, I was wondering if you have some clues on how to tackle it

Thanks!

Best

Hi @ubblechristophe thank you for your feedback! The impact of skin type on VHR methods is still an open issue, especially on darker skin tones. You can find an interesting meta-analysis here Nowara, E. M., McDuff, D., & Veeraraghavan, A. (2020). A meta-analysis of the impact of skin tone and gender on non-contact photoplethysmography measurements.
