SAUAFG 2026

Second International Workshop on Skilled Activity Understanding, Assessment and Feedback Generation

Jun 03 2026Denver, Colorado, United StatesOfficial workshop site Site reachable

The SAUAFG 2026 workshop, held in conjunction with CVPR 2026, focuses on AI-driven understanding, assessment, and feedback generation for skilled human activities across domains like sports, surgery, manufacturing, and rehabilitation. It brings together researchers and practitioners to advance video-based analysis of human performance and enable intelligent, personalized skill coaching through cutting-edge computer vision and AI techniques.

Contribution paths

A strong submission should clearly identify its contribution and evaluate it appropriately.

Proceedings Track

Papers accepted to this track will be published in the official proceedings. Must use CVPR 2026 paper templates, with an 8-page limit (excluding references), and follow CVPR 2026 guidelines. Supplementary material allowed. Single-stage review without rebuttal. Must be anonymized.

Non-Proceedings Track

Papers presented at the workshop but not included in the proceedings. Can include previously published work or work-in-progress. Not required to be anonymized. Supplementary material allowed. Single-stage review without rebuttal. Open to submissions that provoke new ideas without formal evaluation.

Policies worth checking twice

  • Papers in the Proceedings Track must be anonymized; Non-Proceedings Track submissions do not require anonymization.
  • Proceedings Track papers are limited to 8 pages (excluding references) and must follow CVPR 2026 paper guidelines.
  • Supplementary material is allowed for both tracks.
  • The workshop uses a single-stage review process with no rebuttal stage.
  • Non-Proceedings Track papers may have been previously accepted to other venues, including CVPR 2026.
  • Authors are encouraged to use institutional emails for OpenReview registration, as non-institutional emails may take up to two weeks to process.
  • No second round of submissions was officially held for the Non-Proceedings Track, but direct inquiries about presentation opportunities are welcomed.
