This venue
Learning systems themselves—architecture, optimization, learning theory, cross-domain algorithms. For core vision methods and large-scale vision experiments, authors often compare TPAMI / IJCV.
arXiv is allowed, but the review PDF must stay anonymous. Conference extensions need a clear delta—not just extra experiments. Optional open access; traditional subscription track also available.
Length
Regular papers often free through ~10 pages, then ~$200/page up to ~15; surveys ~15→21; briefs ~6→9. Confirm current Author Instructions.
Review
Double-anonymous. Strip identifying material from the review PDF. Submit via ScholarOne / Author Portal per the live TNNLS author page.
Typesetting
Official standard IEEE two-column journal template with numeric cites and IEEE keywords. Do not use the Computer Society pack (TPAMI uses that). Do not squeeze margins.
Before you write
- Not the TPAMI Computer Society template.
- Regular vs survey vs brief length/fees checked.
- Abstract plus 4–5 keywords.
- Double-anonymous cleanup done.
Official pages
Summarized from public calls (as of 2026-09). Always match the CFP you are submitting to.
FAQ
- TNNLS vs TPAMI?
- Neural-network/learning-system methodology fits TNNLS; vision/pattern analysis with heavy experiments fits TPAMI.
- How are over-length fees calculated?
- Regular papers often free through ~10 pages, then ~$200/page up to ~15; surveys/briefs differ—confirm Author Instructions.
- Can I submit a conference paper?
- Yes with substantial extension and a stated delta—resubmissions or layout-only changes are usually rejected.
