I am using a template for a conference. See file icmcsmc2014.sty.
They define IEEEtran as bibtex environment. Now I really want to display the name of the author on some citations. Normally I would use \citet, however IEEEtran does not allow this. Based on this post I tried adding
\usepackage[numbers]{natbib}
Now citet is recognised, but it displays "author?". I think it is a clash with the stylesheet of so.
Any ideas?
A second issue I am having is that the title of the references is not displayed, but printed in small below the empty title with the number.
Here is a minimal working example and the sty file that comes alongs with it. Sorry I didn't see an upload button and was unsure on how to attach the sty file. I will also put the min working example here:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{icmcsmc2014}
\usepackage[numbers]{natbib}
\begin{filecontents}{paper_test.bib}
@article{herremans2013composing,
title={Composing Fifth Species Counterpoint Music With A Variable Neighborhood Search Algorithm},
author={Herremans, Dorien and S{\"o}rensen, Kenneth},
journal={Expert Systems with Applications},
volume={40},
number={16},
pages={6427--6437},
year={2013},
publisher={Pergamon}
}
\end{filecontents}
\usepackage{times}
\usepackage{ifpdf}
\usepackage[english]{babel}
% \usepackage{cite}
% \usepackage{multibib}
% ***************************************** the document starts here ***************
\begin{document}
\section{Introduction}
Here I want the author name to occur with citet as it is said by \citet{herremans2013composing}.
% \bibliographystyle{IEEEtran}
% \bibliographystyle{natbib}
\bibliography{paper_test}
\end{document}
Best Answer
For the interested reader, loading natbib before the template already solves my section title problem.
Also commenting out \bibliographystyle{IEEEtran} in the template solves it. Though I am a bit concerned about the journal using the original .sty file.
