ECCV Camera Ready

Use this after an ECCV acceptance. Unlike its CVF-published siblings, ECCV's version of record is a Springer LNCS book series, with a free mirror on the ECVA papers portal (ecva.net) — two publication targets with different mechanics, plus your own arXiv copy as a third. In 2026, decisions arrived June 17 and the camera-ready deadline was extended to June 30, AoE — a thirteen-day sprint.

The three publication surfaces

Surface	Who controls it	What to check
Springer LNCS proceedings	Springer, via the ECCV author kit	Final page budget, licence/copyright form, source archive requirements
ECVA open-access mirror	ECVA (ecva.net/papers.php)	Appears no earlier than ~4 weeks before the conference; PDF + supplement listed with the Springer DOI
arXiv v2+	You	Update to the accepted text after checking Springer's self-archiving terms for LNCS

ECCV 2024's record shows the scale of the machine you are feeding: LNCS volumes 15059–15147 carried 2,387 papers. Metadata errors (author order, affiliation spelling, title casing) propagate into a printed book series and its DOIs — fix them in the source, not in a later erratum.

Page budget and rewrite pass

• The 2026 Dates page listed a 15-page camera-ready limit excluding cited references — one page more than the submission's 14-including-figures rule, but with a different counting basis, so re-verify the author kit wording before planning the extra space (page-count basis: 待核实 in detail).
• Spend the gained room in priority order: (1) rebuttal promises made to reviewers, (2) acknowledgements and funding, (3) camera-ready-only clarifications ACs asked for. Do not add claims nobody reviewed.
• De-anonymization is a rewrite, not a find-and-replace: restore first-person self-citations, insert the real code URL where the anonymous text said "will be released", and delete the anonymity scaffolding sentences.

Springer-specific mechanics

• Publication in the proceedings required at least one author to register for the conference and a compliant camera-ready before the deadline — registration is a publication precondition, not a travel detail.
• Springer's pipeline consumes LaTeX source, not just a PDF; keep the project compilable with the official kit and expect a copyright/licence form per paper.
• ORCID, affiliation, and email fields feed SpringerLink's indexed metadata; have every co-author confirm their own entry.

Rebuttal-promise ledger

For each promise made in the one-page rebuttal:
  [P1] "clarify training schedule in Sec 4.1"  -> done in v_final? yes/no
  [P2] "add failure cases to supplement"       -> done? yes/no
  [P3] "cite reviewer-suggested prior work"    -> done + discussed? yes/no
Unkept promises are visible to the same reviewers at the poster in Malmö.

June-to-September sequencing (2026 anchors)

1. June 17–30: camera-ready text, Springer forms, registration, metadata.
2. July: public code/model release while the paper is fresh (eccv-artifact-evaluation), arXiv update, project page.
3. ~Mid-August: ECVA/Springer open-access copies surface (~4 weeks before the conference) — verify your PDF and supplement render correctly.
4. September 8–13, Malmö: poster/talk, workshops on the 8th–9th; Schengen visa and travel booked well before August.
