I am using ACM format (Strict Adherence to SIGS style) to edit my bibtex file. The problem is that the compiler gave me the following error and corresponds to the following code:

 @INCOLLECTION{Platt99a,
 AUTHOR = "Platt, John C.",
 CHAPTER = "Fast training of support vector machines using sequential minimal optimization",
 BOOKTITLE = {Advances in kernel methods},
 PUBLISHER = "MIT Press",
 ADDRESS = "Cambridge, MA, USA",
 YEAR = {1999}  } 

 Warning--empty title in Platt99a

I can't find any problem with my code. How to fix it?

cheers

The incollection type requires the author, title, booktitle, publisher, and year fields. Your entry has no title field, hence the warning. On the other hand, the chapter field should contain a number. So move the content of chapter to title, and maybe find out which chapter number it is to fill the chapter field.

  • I changed the 'chapter' to 'title' and it works, actually, 'chapter' is 'title' in my case. thx
