Submitting to IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems for Video Technology goes smoothly when your draft already matches the journal's own rules. Editors screen new manuscripts against the IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems for Video Technology guide for authors before peer review, so formatting, structure, and required statements should be right on the first draft rather than repaired during upload. This template sets that structure up for you.
It is a manuscript shell aligned to IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems for Video Technology. It covers front matter, the abstract the journal expects, a body organized to the journal's article types, and a reference list in the journal's required style. Confirm current scope and article types on the IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems for Video Technology journal page before you draft.
Prepare the title, authors, affiliations, and ORCID iDs. Write the abstract to the journal's rule and word limit, organize the body to the article type, and apply the required reference style from the first citation. Complete every declaration (ethics, competing interests, funding, data availability) the IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems for Video Technology guide for authors lists, and cite figures and tables in order.
The common failure modes are formatting or reference style that does not match the guide for authors, missing required statements, and an incomplete portal checklist. Clear all three against the IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems for Video Technology guide for authors before you submit.
The shell mirrors what editorial staff check first: article-type fit, the abstract rules, required declarations, and the journal's reference style. For more detail see the author resources. When your draft is ready, upload it through ScholarOne (Manuscript Central).
| Element | IEEE Transactions on Circuits Syst Video Technology requirement |
|---|---|
| Abstract | Unstructured, one paragraph, 150-200 words. Must be self-contained without abbreviations, footnotes, or references. Should not contain displayed mathematical equations or tabular material. For original research: state the primary objective, offer any tested hypotheses, describe research design and methodology, accurately state the methods and procedures employed, the main outcomes and results, and the conclusions that might be drawn from these data and results. Include any implications for further research or application/practice. The abstract should include three or four different keywords or phrases |
| Main text | Transactions Paper: Cannot exceed 14 pages in IEEE two-column format including figures (approximately 42 double-spaced typewritten pages of 8.5 x 11 inches). Over-length charges begin with the 10th page. Transactions Letter: Should not exceed 5 pages in IEEE two-column format including figures (approximately 15 double-spaced typewritten pages of 8.5 x 11 inches) |
| Declarations | Ethics approval/consent as applicable; competing interests; funding; data availability |
| Figures/tables | Publication-ready; cited in order |
| Supplemental | Upload separately when used |
| Keywords | 3-4 keywords or phrases should be included in the abstract. Keywords are available from the IEEE taxonomy (http://www.ieee.org/documents/taxonomy_v101.pdf). It is important to avoid repetition of keywords and phrases as this can result in rejection of the paper by search engines |
| References | IEEE style. References should appear in a separate reference section at the end of the paper, with items referred to by numerals in square brackets, e.g., [12]. For papers: author, first initial followed by last name, title, volume, inclusive page numbers, month, and year. For books: author, title, location and publisher, year, chapter or page numbers (if desired) |
| Peer review | Single-blind (single-anonymous). Based on IEEE's standard practice, most IEEE publications use the single-anonymous format where reviewers' identities are not known to authors, but reviewers know the authors' identities. TCSVT's official guidelines state that each article is evaluated by at least two independent reviewers selected by a member of the publication's editorial board |

Read the IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems for Video Technology guide for authors once before drafting and once before upload. Draft the abstract after results are stable. Set the reference style before adding citations. Keep a cover letter that states your contribution and fit to IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems for Video Technology in under a page.
Skim two or three recent IEEE Transactions on Circuits Syst Video Technology papers to calibrate depth and figure style. Make the novelty clear in the first two pages. Deposit data and code when the policy on the IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems for Video Technology journal page requires it. Disclose any preprint or conference version with identifiers in the cover letter.
Do one focused pass against the IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems for Video Technology guide for authors: scope, length, reference style, required declarations, and figure quality. Then submit through ScholarOne (Manuscript Central).
