I'm submitting a paper at AISTATS 2015, and I wish to add a footnote about an author. I tried using \thanks
and \footnote
, but only the footnote number appears, the footnote text does not appear.
Here's the style file we are required to use: https://github.com/vitorguizilini/AISTATS2015/blob/master/aistats2015.sty and a sample paper: http://pastebin.com/sXzTDvLU (see line 33 for the footnote).
My ultimate aim is to achieve something like this: http://jmlr.csail.mit.edu/proceedings/papers/v5/sunehag09a/sunehag09a.pdf
I'm not familiar with LaTeX programming. Any idea how the style file should be modified?
Thanks!

a
\footnote
on any element in a "closed" environment (titles, authors, captions, ...) will be absent from the output, so a different approach must be taken.instead of
\footnote
, enter\footnotemark
with the author:then, after the "closed" environment is complete (here probably ended by
\maketitle
), enter the footnote material itself:if there is more than one footnote involved (say, separately for two authors), it will be necessary to adjust the counter before issuing the first
\footnotetext
. this would be done byor other appropriate value.
