This award is made in support of a collaborative project called "Frontiers in Activity Recognition" whereby a group of experts from different fields of computer science, engineering, mathematics and statistics convene in a workshop to be held in the vicinity of UCLA. One component of the workshop consists in interactive break-out sessions where different approaches to activity representation (descriptors) and recognition will be analyzed. A second component consists in a competition, announced to the broad public ahead of the IEEE International Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (CVPR), whereby an extensive dataset provided by a third party will be released, with benchmarks, and contestants will be invited to submit their best results in the detection of a number of action categories. The proposers of high-ranking approaches will be invited to the workshop to present their results and discuss it in the context of the analysis of the state of the art to be performed as part of the field assessment. The workshop can have broad impact to many applications ranging from security (surveillance, monitoring) to environmental science (habitat monitoring, global warming), to industrial operations (factory floor optimization), to multi-media and information retrieval (content-based video meta-data extraction), to entertainment (input devices for games), and to transportation (driver assistance).

这个奖项是为了支持一个名为“活动识别前沿”的合作项目，由一群来自计算机科学、工程、数学和统计学不同领域的专家在加州大学洛杉矶分校附近召开研讨会。研讨会的一个组成部分包括交互式分组会议，其中将分析活动表示（描述符）和识别的不同方法。第二个组成部分是在IEEE计算机视觉和模式识别国际会议（CVPR）之前向公众宣布的竞赛，其中第三方提供的广泛数据集将被发布，并带有基准，参赛者将被邀请提交他们在检测一些动作类别方面的最佳结果。高级别方法的提议者将被邀请参加讲习班，介绍他们的成果，并在分析作为实地评估一部分的最新技术的背景下进行讨论。该研讨会可以对许多应用产生广泛的影响，包括安全（监视、监测）、环境科学（栖息地监测、全球变暖）、工业运营（工厂车间优化）、多媒体和信息检索（基于内容的视频元数据提取）、娱乐（游戏输入设备）和交通（驾驶员辅助）。
