Thanks for your interest in ActivityNet.

We will use the same guidelines from previous years. Below are the details:

===========================================
======= Technical Paper Submission FAQ ========
===========================================

Q: How do we submit the papers?
A:  Please email your papers to us at fabia...@kaust.edu.sahumam.a...@kaust.edu.samengm...@kaust.edu.saand victor....@kaust.edu.saPlease send one single email to all three email addresses.

Q: What is the format of the paper submission? Is there a page limit?
A: We do not require any specific format/template, and we do not have a page limit. The more details you give about the approach, the better we can assess and analyze the solution. You can consult the previous year's challenge summaries (20172018) for examples of the submitted papers. Please make sure to include the following minimum required information in your submitted paper:
  • name(s) and affiliation(s)
  • challenge task number(s)
  • architecture/pipeline of the solution along with a description of each module
  • details of any external data or resources used in training 
Q: Our team submission is not among the top submissions. Do we still need to submit a technical paper?
A: We encourage each participant to submit a paper regardless of their standing on the leaderboard. These papers help us analyze the innovative techniques that participants used as well as collect some general stats. The data we collect (plus all technical paper submissions) will be part of the workshop material and will be released on arXiv as part of our annual ActivityNet Challenge summary. The workshop materials and challenge summary will be a great resource for the computer vision community to share the state-of-the-art techniques employed by participants.

Q: Our team has participated in multiple tasks this year, should we submit one report for all tasks or one report per task?
A: Feel free to do any of the two options. If there are shared modules across your solutions for the different tasks, then it might be better for you to have them all in one report.

Q: When will the winners be announced?
A: We will contact the winners directly as soon as we have post-processed all the submissions (especially the ones we got close to the deadline). We appreciate your patience as we have received a significant number of submissions this year. 

Cheers!
