2020 Sequestered Data Evaluation for Known Activities in Extended Video: Summary and Results |
Afzal Godil, Yooyoung Lee, Jon Fiscus, Andrew Delgado, Eliot Godard, Baptiste Chocot, Lukas Diduch, Jim Golden, Jesse Zhang |
In the 2nd WACV HADCV’20 [2], we presented the results of ActEV Sequestered Data Leaderboard (SDL) Known Facility (KF) challenge [21] on the larger and more challenging Multiview Extended Video with Activities (MEVA) KF dataset (mevadata.org) with more activities than ActEV 2018. In this WACV HADCV’21 workshop we plan to present the research findings of the ActEV SDL Unknown Facility (UF) challenge [22]. The UF challenge will include detection of activities which are known to the participant's system a priori as well as activities that are presented to the system at test time (surprise/ad_hoc activities) on a new sequestered dataset. We will have two invited keynote talks from experts in the field. We will also have two talks from the best performers on the ActEV SDL UF challenge. Up to four regular papers will be selected after a double-blind review on topics related to activity detection. The workshop will provide a platform for researchers to share research experiences and foster collaboration. The ActEV SDL UF challenge (https://actev.nist.gov/sdl) dataset will start on September 21, 2020.
In this workshop, we will bring diverse stakeholders (activity detection, object detection and tracking, pose estimation, machine learning, etc.) together to help advance the state-of-the-art in human activity detection technology in multi-camera video streaming environments. For this workshop, we will primarily focus on activity detection algorithms, performance evaluation and characterization, and large dataset collections for activity detection. Research findings from the ActEV SDL UF challenge will be presented.
As organizers of the workshop we are looking forward to contributions in these and related areas.

Accepted papers will be allocated 8 pages in the proceeding and that is, a paper can be up to 8 pages + the references. The manuscripts should be submitted in PDF format and should follow the requirements of the IEEE WACV paper format. All work submitted to WACV workshop is considered confidential until the papers appear. Accepted papers will be included in the Proceedings of IEEE WACV 2021 & Workshops and will be sent for inclusion into the IEEE Xplore digital library.
