"description": "Use when preparing an accepted IEEE VIS paper for its IEEE TVCG camera-ready, covering de-anonymization, the VGTC\/TVCG template and journal metadata (DOI, ORCID, IEEE keywords\/index terms), integrating the second-round required changes without scope creep, permanentizing open-materials links, the Open Practices disclosure form, and the Graphics Replicability Stamp handoff."

VIS Camera Ready
Use this after acceptance. IEEE VIS full papers are published as IEEE TVCG journal articles, so the camera-ready is a journal production step, not just a formatting pass. Reopen the current TVCG author instructions, the "Final Information for Paper Authors" page, and the Open Practices form before advising.
Camera-ready audit
- De-anonymize completely (if you submitted double-blind): restore the author block, affiliations, ORCIDs, acknowledgements, funding, and the real system, tool, and repository names the anonymization hid.
- Apply the final format: the VGTC / TVCG-conference template within the page budget (9 pages of content + up to 2 reference/acknowledgement pages), with the camera-ready allowances the acceptance letter states.
- Complete TVCG journal metadata: title/abstract, author order, ORCIDs, IEEE keywords / index terms, and the DOI-bearing citation once assigned. Journal metadata errors are harder to fix after publication than conference ones.
- Integrate the second-round required changes faithfully — without strengthening claims beyond what the reviewers evaluated.
- Permanentize open materials: replace every anonymized code/data/video link with a public, licensed, archival location (OSF, Zenodo, a tagged release), and make the paper point at it.
- Complete the Open Practices form (preprint, preregistration, open data/code, supplemental disclosures) that accepted authors fill in at camera-ready.
- Confirm presentation obligations; at least one author presents at the conference.
De-anonymization sweep
| Anonymized at submission | Restore at camera-ready | Watch for |
|---|---|---|
| Author block, affiliations, ORCID | Full, correctly ordered | Wrong author order breaks the DOI citation |
| System / technique name | Real name throughout text, figures, video, repo | A leftover placeholder name in a caption or the video |
| Acknowledgements, funding | Restored | Grant numbers required by funders |
| Self-citations (third person) | Natural first-person where it aids clarity | Over-correcting and double-citing |
| Supplemental video | Re-render with real title/affiliation slate | The anonymized voice-over or blurred logo surviving |
| Code/data link | Public archival DOI (OSF/Zenodo) | The old anonymized URL surviving in a footnote |
TVCG production checks
[Template] VGTC / TVCG-conference template, current revision; no manual margin/font edits
[Metadata] title, abstract, authors+ORCID, IEEE keywords/index terms entered and matching PDF
[References] complete, consistent; DOIs where available; within the 2-page reference allowance
[Figures] vector where possible; readable in print and grayscale; CVD-safe palettes; captions self-contained
[Rights] IEEE copyright/eCF form completed; correct rights statement on the first page
[Links] every open-materials and video link resolves from a logged-out browser
[Video] supplemental video re-rendered, de-anonymized, correct codec/length
Worked example: integrating a second-round required change
The reviewers required adding the perceptual pilot and rewriting the encoding rationale. Camera-ready move: place the pilot's result with its effect size and CI in the evaluation section, revise §4 so each visual channel is tied to a task, restore the real system name in the figures and the video, and point the open-materials statement at the now-public OSF archive — without expanding the claim the reviewers accepted.
Replicability-Stamp and Open Practices handoff
The camera-ready and the Graphics Replicability Stamp review are separate tracks. Do not wait for the stamp result to finalize the paper, but do make the paper's open-materials statement consistent with what you are submitting to GRSI, and complete the Open Practices disclosures honestly. The stamp is earned by an independent volunteer reproducing your code/data, so the public archive must be the exact, runnable version the paper describes.
Hedged logistics
- Page allowances, metadata fields, the IEEE rights-form mechanics, and exact camera-ready dates change each cycle; confirm against the decision email and current TVCG instructions rather than a prior year.
Output format
[Camera-ready status] ready / needs fixes / blocked
[De-anonymization] author block / system name / acks / links / video restored? yes/no
[TVCG metadata] ORCID / IEEE keywords / rights form complete? yes/no
[Required-change map] <second-round change -> final edit, no scope creep>
[Open practices] anonymized links replaced by archival DOI? disclosure form done? yes/no
[Remaining owner] <person -> task>
