# ICML Camera-Ready

Use this after acceptance. ICML camera-ready work is unusually tied to public accountability because
accepted papers publish the original submission, supplementary material, reviews, meta-reviews,
rebuttal, and reviewer-author discussion along with camera-ready.

## Official items to reopen

- Current Author Instructions and camera-ready checklist.
- OpenReview camera-ready form.
- Current ICML style file and format checker.
- PMLR publication agreement and ICML release forms.
- Registration, presentation, proceedings-only, poster/oral, and post-conference revision rules.

## 2026 baseline

ICML 2026 camera-ready instructions require upload by May 28 AoE, allow a 9-page paper body, limit
the camera-ready PDF to 20MB, require appendices in the PDF, provide no camera-ready supplementary
material, ask for a lay summary, and require the format-checker code. They also introduce a
financial conflict-of-interest disclosure rule for relevant cases.

## Workflow

1. Decide whether the paper is in-person or proceedings-only and complete the required
   presentation/registration questionnaire.
2. Convert the anonymous submission into a public paper: authors, acknowledgments, funding, code,
   datasets, and repositories.
3. Incorporate reviewer/AC feedback without changing the essential accepted contribution.
4. Move all final appendices into the PDF; use public repositories for code/data instead of final
   supplementary material.
5. Enter lay summary, title, abstract, author metadata, code URL, PMLR agreement, and release forms.
6. Run the format checker and keep the successful code.
7. Plan post-conference small corrections if needed.
