The PAMI-TC meeting 2016

The PAMI-TC meeting will vote on a number of motions at CVPR
2016. Voting is electronic, and will open Monday night (6/27) and
close 24 hours later. Please note that this is not a secret ballot.

The following motions will be discussed at the meeting on Monday
evening:

(1) CVPR 2019 Bids.

Long Beach: (GC: Larry Davis, Philip Torr, Song-Chun Zhu) (PC: Abhinav
Gupta, Derek Hoiem, Gang Hua, Zhuowen Tu)

(2) The CVPR 2021 team and venue will be voted on at CVPR 2017, and
from then on all future venues will be voted on 4 years in advance.

(3) If Motion 2 passes, the site selection for CVPR 2020 will be
performed by the executive committee, with their choice subject to
ratification by vote of the PAMI-TC at CVPR 2017.  [If this motion
does not pass, CVPR 2020 will be voted on at CVPR 2017 as usual.]

(4) The TC executive committee is charged with reviewing the CVPR site
selection process, to determine the tradeoffs involved with limiting
the set of sites. A report should be prepared in time for CVPR 2017,
along with any motions.

(5) Authors of all CVPR papers are required to add a statement right
after the acknowledgments section and before the reference list that
specifies whether they have a competing financial interest. The
statement should be as short as possible but must disclose all
financial benefits (e.g., company ownership, stocks, paid consultancy,
gifts, etc.). Such a statement may be omitted if the competing
financial interest is already clear from the affiliation of one or
more authors on the paper or from acknowledged funding.

A good definition of competing finance interests can be found in the
