用户提及“幻灯片”“演示文稿”“演讲”“答辩”“海报演讲”

Before You Start: Three Questions

开始前：三个问题

Before designing any slides, answer these questions clearly:

What works are you presenting? They must share a coherent research direction. If presenting multiple works, they should form a narrative arc — not a disconnected list.
What problems do these works solve in that direction? Each work should map to a specific problem. If you cannot articulate the problem in one sentence, you are not ready to present.
How do you use related work to naturally introduce these problems? Related work is not citation duty. It builds the motivation for YOUR problem. Each related work you mention should advance the audience toward understanding why your approach is needed.

在设计任何幻灯片之前，请明确回答以下三个问题：

你要展示哪些研究成果？ 这些成果必须属于一个连贯的研究方向。如果展示多项成果，它们应构成一个完整的叙事脉络——而非毫无关联的列表。
这些成果在该研究方向上解决了哪些问题？ 每项成果都应对应一个具体问题。如果你无法用一句话清晰阐述该问题，说明你还没准备好进行展示。
你如何利用相关研究成果自然地引出这些问题？ 相关研究并非只是引用任务，它是为你的研究问题构建动机的工具。你提及的每一项相关研究都应引导听众理解为什么你的研究方法是必要的。

Core Workflow

核心工作流程

Step 1: Define scope and audience
Step 2: Draft narrative arc (outline)
Step 3: Design slide structure (section breakdown)
Step 4: Create individual slides (one idea per slide)
Step 5: Add visual elements (figures, diagrams, animations)
Step 6: Rehearse and time
Step 7: Prepare backup / Q&A slides

Step 1: 定义范围与受众
Step 2: 草拟叙事脉络（大纲）
Step 3: 设计幻灯片结构（章节拆分）
Step 4: 创建单张幻灯片（每张一个核心观点）
Step 5: 添加视觉元素（图表、示意图、动画）
Step 6: 排练与时长控制
Step 7: 准备备用/问答幻灯片

Step 1: Define Scope and Audience

Step 1: 定义范围与受众

Audience	Adjust
Domain experts	Skip basics, go deep on method and results
Broad CS / engineering	Explain task context, moderate technical depth
Interdisciplinary	Start from the application, minimize jargon
Industry	Lead with impact and demo, light on theory

Rule of thumb: Duration in minutes = approximate slide count. A 20-minute talk needs about 20 slides.

受众群体	调整方向
领域专家	跳过基础知识，深入讲解方法与成果
计算机科学/工程领域广泛受众	解释任务背景，适度控制技术深度
跨学科受众	从应用场景切入，尽量减少专业术语
行业受众	以影响力与演示为重点，弱化理论内容

经验法则：演讲时长（分钟数）≈ 幻灯片数量。20分钟的演讲大约需要20张幻灯片。

Step 2: Draft Narrative Arc

Step 2: 草拟叙事脉络

Use the outline template at assets/talk-outline-template.md to plan your talk before making any slides. The outline forces you to articulate your key takeaway and narrative arc.

在制作任何幻灯片之前，使用assets/talk-outline-template.md中的大纲模板规划你的演讲。该大纲将促使你明确阐述核心要点与叙事脉络。

Step 3: Design Slide Structure

Step 3: 设计幻灯片结构

Break your outline into sections with claim-style headers. See talk-structure.md for two complete talk structures and section-by-section guidance.

将你的大纲拆分为带有观点式标题的章节。如需完整的演讲结构及分章节指导，请查看talk-structure.md。

Step 4: Create Individual Slides

Step 4: 创建单张幻灯片

One idea per slide. Follow the 10 design rules in slide-design.md for visual hierarchy and layout.

每张幻灯片仅承载一个核心观点。请遵循slide-design.md中的10条设计规则，优化视觉层级与布局。

Step 5: Build the .pptx File

Step 5: 生成.pptx文件

Use slide-creation.md for practical

.pptx

creation — color palettes, layout code, charts, tables, figures, and QA workflow.

如需实用的.pptx制作指南——包括调色板、布局代码、图表、表格、图形及问答流程，请查看slide-creation.md。

Step 6: Rehearse and Time

Step 6: 排练与时长控制

See references/delivery-and-qa.md for the rehearsal protocol, delivery principles, and Q&A preparation.

如需排练流程、演讲原则及问答准备指导，请查看references/delivery-and-qa.md。

Step 7: Prepare Backup Slides

Step 7: 准备备用幻灯片

Backup slides go after your "Thank You" slide. They are not part of the talk — they are your safety net for Q&A:

Full quantitative comparison table
Failure cases (shows honesty and preparation)
Additional ablations or analysis
Slides addressing anticipated tough questions

备用幻灯片置于“谢谢”幻灯片之后，不属于正式演讲内容——它们是你应对问答环节的安全保障：

完整的量化对比表格
失败案例（体现诚实与充分准备）
额外的消融实验或分析内容
针对预期尖锐问题的应答幻灯片

Counterintuitive Presentation Rules

违反直觉的演讲规则

For the 10 design rules (one idea per slide, claim-style titles, max 6 elements, etc.), see slide-design.md. The rules below are higher-level mindset shifts.

关于10条设计规则（每张一个观点、观点式标题、最多6个元素等），请查看slide-design.md。以下是更高层次的思维转变规则。

1. Your slides are not your paper

1. 幻灯片不是论文

A talk is an advertisement, not a lecture. Your goal is to make the audience interested enough to read the paper. Cut 80% of your paper's content. If someone can reconstruct your paper from your slides alone, your slides have too much.

演讲是一种宣传，而非授课。你的目标是让听众产生足够的兴趣去阅读你的论文。请砍掉论文中80%的内容。如果有人仅通过你的幻灯片就能重构你的论文，说明你的幻灯片内容过多。

2. Reading and listening compete

2. 阅读与听讲相互竞争

Text-heavy slides force the audience to choose between reading your slides and listening to you. They will read — and stop hearing you. When you put text on a slide, you are choosing to be ignored.

文字密集的幻灯片会迫使听众在阅读幻灯片和聆听你演讲之间做出选择。他们会选择阅读——从而停止听你讲话。当你在幻灯片上放置文字时，你其实是在选择被听众忽略。

3. Enthusiasm > polish

3. 热情 > 精致

A passionate speaker with rough slides beats a bored speaker with beautiful slides. The audience remembers your energy and clarity, not your color scheme. If you only have time to improve one thing, rehearse more — don't redesign slides.

一个充满热情但幻灯片粗糙的演讲者，胜过一个乏味但幻灯片精美的演讲者。听众会记住你的活力与清晰表达，而非你的配色方案。如果你只有时间改进一件事，那就多排练——不要重新设计幻灯片。

4. Related work is not citation duty

4. 相关研究并非引用任务

Use related work to BUILD your problem motivation, not to show you have read papers. Each related work slide should advance the narrative: "This approach solved X, but Y remains open — which is exactly what we address."

使用相关研究来构建你的研究问题动机，而非仅仅展示你读过相关论文。每张相关研究幻灯片都应推动叙事发展：“该方法解决了X问题，但Y问题仍未解决——而这正是我们的研究方向。”
