ieeetranparagraphsspacing
I am using IEEEtran latex class 2-column format for conference. It gives me spacing between paragraphs which I want to take off.
I got the template from this link.

Your help will be greatly appreciated.
You are using [b!] specifier and you don't have any text so weird things are bound to happen. Also please truncate the example next time to isolate the issue, you don't use many of the packages here.
You need to use the starred version of the figure environment otherwise it forces the figure to be on one of columns for which location specifiers make sense. Otherwise I recommend leaving it alone. You can read an excellent summary in How to influence the position of float environments like figure and table in LaTeX? to get more info about the starred version.

I met exactly the same problem using
IEEEtranfor two-columns conference paper. Downloading the latest version ofIEEEtran.clsfrom CTAN and replacing the original one solved my problem.The version of
IEEEtranin the ZIP file isand the counterpart in the CTAN is
There are many (non)trivial changes between these two versions. Hope it also works for you.
