PAMI是模式识别和机器智能领域里非常顶级的刊物; 在工程领域里,有些人甚至把这个刊物的分量和难度比作Nature , Science;
所以,在PAMI上灌水,对很多人来说都是很不容易做到的事. 下面是投稿之前作者应该了解的一些信息.

Submitting a paper to TPAMI
To Submit your paper, please use ScholarOne Manuscripts.
Detailed information regarding submitting your paper to TPAMI can be found in the author center in the peer review for journals community.
When a TPAMI submission is based on a previous conference paper, IEEE requires that the journal paper be a "substantial revision" of the previous publication (30 percent is generally considered "substantial").TPAMI interprets and applies this requirement on a case-by-case basis with appropriate deference to the author's viewpoint. Examples of the improvements we expect to see over the conference paper include the following: additional technical details, a clearer explanation of the contribution, more experiments if appropriate, or an updated state-of-the-art. And of course the authors are encouraged to make the journal version a significant improvement on the conference paper, for example by taking the opportunity to integrate their previous work, or performing additional substantive work to answer questions that their conference paper raised. Since the journal version is intended to be the definitive, archival version of the research, TPAMI expects that the authors will take this opportunity to further improve their conference paper.

Manuscript types accepted by TPAMI
TPAMI manuscript types and submission length guidelines are as follows:
- Regular paper – 14 double column or 30 single column pages (Note: All regular paper page limits include references and author biographies)
- Short paper – 8 double column or 15 single column pages
- Comments paper – 2½ double column or 5 single column pages
- Survey paper – 20 double column or 40 single column pages
Please note that double column will translate more readily into the final publication format. A double column page is defined as a 7.875" x 10.75" page with 10-point type, 12-point vertical spacing, and 1/2 inch margins. A single column page is defined as an 8.5" x 11" page with 12-point type and 24-point vertical spacing, containing approximately 250 words. All margins should be one inch (top, bottom, right and left). These length limits are taking into account reasonably-sized figures and references. Single column versions may be provided as supplemental material.
Open access
This publication is a hybrid journal, allowing either Traditional manuscript submission or Open Access (author-pays OA) manuscript submission.
The OA option, if selected, enables unrestricted public access to the article via IEEE Xplore. The OA option will be offered to the author at the time the manuscript is submitted. If selected, the OA discounted fee of $1,750 must be paid before the article is published in the journal. If you have unusual circumstances about this, please contact the Editor-in-Chief.
The traditional option, if selected, enables access to all qualified subscribers and purchasers via IEEE Xplore. No OA payment is required.Templates
These templates are meant to aid you in preparing a draft of your manuscript for peer-review as well as to prepare final publication materials that will closely translate into the final publication format. This does not mean that the published paper will appear in this format. The published paper will appear as formatted by IEEE Computer Society publication staff. Full specifications on the IEEE Computer Society style can be found in our Style Guide PDF.
