Submission guidelines

All submissions must adhere to the CVPR 2022 paper submission style, format, and length restrictions. All accepted submissions will be available through the program website which will be linked from the official CVPR‘22 site. The papers and presentations will be available for download by participants during the conference.


All submissions will be handled electronically via the workshop's CMT Website. The paper submission deadline is March 11, 2022.

Papers are limited to four pages, including figures and tables, in the CVPR style. Additional pages containing only cited references are allowed. Please refer to the following files for detailed formatting instructions:

Papers that do not use the template, or have more than four pages (excluding references) will be rejected without review.


1) Paper submission and review site

Please make sure that your browser has cookies and Javascript enabled.

Log into CMT3 at https://cmt3.research.microsoft.com. If you do not see “5th Workshop on Computer Vision for Fashion, Art, and Design” in the conference list already, click on the “All Conferences” tab and find it there.


2) Author registration

When you log in for the first time, you will be asked to set up a user profile and provide their conflict information. You will not be able to submit any paper without entering this information. At any time, you can update this information by clicking on your name in the upper-right and selecting “User information” under CVFAD2022.

It is the primary author's responsibility to ensure that all authors on their paper have registered on CMT3 and provide their conflict information.

  1. User Profile: Here you can update the basic information on your CMT profile.

  2. Conflict Information: Authors need to provide information on conflict domains. Each author should list domains of all institutions they have worked for, or have had very close collaboration with, within the last 3 years (example: mit.edu; ox.ac.uk; microsoft.com). DO NOT enter the domain of email providers such as gmail.com. This institutional conflict information will be used in conjunction with prior authorship conflict information to resolve assignments to both reviewers and area chairs. If a paper is found to have an undeclared or incorrect institutional conflict, the paper may be summarily rejected.

  3. Creating a Paper Submission: This step must be completed by the paper registration deadline. After this deadline, you will not be able to register new papers, but you will be able to edit the information for existing papers. While it will be possible to make minor edits to the title and abstract until the full paper submission deadline, submissions with “placeholder” abstracts that are rewritten entirely for the full submission may be removed without consideration. Note: we are allowing changes to the author list until the full paper deadline. After that, no changes will be permitted for any reason, including for the camera-ready version. (a) Click the “+ Create new submission” button in the upper-left to create a new submission. There, you will be prompted to enter the title, abstract, authors, and subject areas. You are strongly encouraged to finalize the author list by the registration deadline. (b) Check with your co-authors to make sure that: (1) you add them with their correct CMT3 email; and (2) they have logged in to the submission website and filled out the conflict information on CMT3. If you add an author with an email that is not in CMT3 and the name and organization is not automatically filled, that means they are not yet in the system, and you should make sure to check that they do not already have an account under a different email before completing the requested information to add them. (c) Enter subject (topic) areas for your paper. You must include at least one primary area and up to 10 secondary areas. This information is used to help assign ACs and reviewers.

  4. Paper Number: Once you have registered your paper (i.e. title/authors), you will be assigned a paper number. Insert this into the LaTeX or Word template before generating the PDF of your paper for submission. Papers submitted without a number may not be reviewed.

  5. Authorship Changes: After the paper submission deadline, the list of authors will be considered final. After that date, new authors CAN NOT be added; authors may also NOT be removed. Changes to the authorship order will be permitted only in exceptional circumstances.

  6. Submission Requirements: * The maximum size of the abstract is 4000 characters. * The paper must be PDF only (maximum 50MB). Make sure your paper meets the formatting requirements described above. * The supplementary material can be either PDF or ZIP only (maximum 100MB).

  7. Supplementary Material Submission: By the supplementary material deadline, the authors may optionally submit code and/or additional material that was ready at the time of paper submission but could not be included due to constraints of format or space. The authors should refer to the contents of the supplementary material appropriately in the paper. Reviewers will be encouraged to look at it, but are not obligated to do so.

Supplementary material may include videos, proofs, additional figures or tables, more detailed analysis of experiments presented in the paper, code, or a concurrent submission to CVPR or another conference. It may not include results on additional datasets, results obtained with an improved version of the method (e.g., following additional parameter tuning or training), or an updated or corrected version of the submission PDF. Make sure the supplementary material does not reveal author identity. Papers with supplementary materials violating the guidelines may be summarily rejected.

  1. Code Submission and Reproducibility: To improve reproducibility in AI research, we highly encourage authors to voluntarily submit their code as part of the supplementary material. Authors should also use the Reproducibility Checklist as a guide for writing reproducible papers. Reviewers are encouraged to check the submitted code to ensure that the paper’s results are trustworthy and reproducible. The code should be anonymized, e.g., author names and institutions (e.g. also in license / copyright statements) should be removed. The authors should include instructions for how to set up the environment and run the code. The code does not need to cover all experiments, but should aim to cover the main results and as many of the minor experiments as possible. We do not expect authors to submit private/sensitive data, only sufficient data to demonstrate the method. All code/data will be reviewed confidentially and kept private.


3) Detailed supplementary material guidelines

(a) All supplementary material must be self-contained and zipped into a single file. The following document and media formats are allowed: avi, mp4, pdf, wmv. CMT imposes a 100MB limit on the size of this file. Note that you can update the file by uploading a new one (after removing the previous version).

(b) The paper for review (PDF only) must be submitted first before the supplementary material (PDF or ZIP only) can be submitted.

(c) There are no specific formatting requirements for PDFs in the supplementary material. The official CVPR style may be – but does not have to be – used. Legibility and clarity are always appreciated, especially as the reviewers are not obliged to look carefully.

(d) Code can be submitted as part of the supplementary ZIP file or through anonymous GitHub repositories (include the link in a separate text file in the supplementary ZIP). The link should point to a branch that will not be modified after the submission deadline. Link or repository access should not reveal author or reviewer identity.
