long-duration Video (HADCV'21)” will focus on human activity detection in multi-camera video streams. The ability to detect human activities is an important task in computer vision due to its potentially wide range of applications. </span><span style="font-size:12pt; font-family:Calibri,Helvetica,sans-serif">This
workshop aims to bring all the 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.

In this workshop we will 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</span>. In addition, we are inviting the research community to submit unpublished research papers which will be published in the IEEE Digital Library on the following topics:</span></div>
