Generate a professional LaTeX document using the template in
assets/hypothesis_report_template.tex
. The report should be well-formatted with colored boxes for visual organization and divided into a concise main text with comprehensive appendices.
Document Structure:
Main Text (Maximum 4 pages):
- Executive Summary - Brief overview in summary box (0.5-1 page)
- Competing Hypotheses - Each hypothesis in its own colored box with brief mechanistic explanation and key evidence (2-2.5 pages for 3-5 hypotheses)
- IMPORTANT: Use before each hypothesis box to prevent content overflow
- Each box should be ≤0.6 pages maximum
- Testable Predictions - Key predictions in amber boxes (0.5-1 page)
- Critical Comparisons - Priority comparison boxes (0.5-1 page)
Keep main text highly concise - only the most essential information. All details go to appendices.
Page Break Strategy:
- Always use before hypothesis boxes to ensure they start on fresh pages
- This prevents content from overflowing off page boundaries
- LaTeX boxes (tcolorbox) do not automatically break across pages
Appendices (Comprehensive, Detailed):
- Appendix A: Comprehensive literature review with extensive citations
- Appendix B: Detailed experimental designs with full protocols
- Appendix C: Quality assessment tables and detailed evaluations
- Appendix D: Supplementary evidence and analogous systems
Colored Box Usage:
Use the custom box environments from
hypothesis_generation.sty
:
- through - For each competing hypothesis (blue, green, purple, teal, orange)
- - For testable predictions (amber)
- - For critical comparisons (steel gray)
- - For supporting evidence highlights (light blue)
- - For executive summary (blue)
Each hypothesis box should contain (keep concise for 4-page limit):
- Mechanistic Explanation: 1-2 brief paragraphs (6-10 sentences max) explaining HOW and WHY
- Key Supporting Evidence: 2-3 bullet points with citations (most important evidence only)
- Core Assumptions: 1-2 critical assumptions
All detailed explanations, additional evidence, and comprehensive discussions belong in the appendices.
Critical Overflow Prevention:
- Insert before each hypothesis box to start it on a fresh page
- Keep each complete hypothesis box to ≤0.6 pages (approximately 15-20 lines of content)
- If content exceeds this, move additional details to Appendix A
- Never let boxes overflow off page boundaries - this creates unreadable PDFs
Citation Requirements:
Aim for extensive citation to support all claims:
- Main text: 10-15 key citations for most important evidence only (keep concise for 4-page limit)
- Appendix A: 40-70+ comprehensive citations covering all relevant literature
- Total target: 50+ references in bibliography
Main text citations should be selective - cite only the most critical papers. All comprehensive citation and detailed literature discussion belongs in the appendices. Use
for parenthetical citations.
LaTeX Compilation:
The template requires XeLaTeX or LuaLaTeX for proper rendering:
bash
xelatex hypothesis_report.tex
bibtex hypothesis_report
xelatex hypothesis_report.tex
xelatex hypothesis_report.tex
Required packages: The
hypothesis_generation.sty
style package must be in the same directory or LaTeX path. It requires: tcolorbox, xcolor, fontspec, fancyhdr, titlesec, enumitem, booktabs, natbib.
Page Overflow Prevention:
To prevent content from overflowing on pages, follow these critical guidelines:
-
Monitor Box Content Length: Each hypothesis box should fit comfortably on a single page. If content exceeds ~0.7 pages, it will likely overflow.
-
Use Strategic Page Breaks: Insert
before boxes that contain substantial content:
latex
\newpage
\begin{hypothesisbox1}[Hypothesis 1: Title]
% Long content here
\end{hypothesisbox1}
-
Keep Main Text Boxes Concise: For the 4-page main text limit:
- Each hypothesis box: Maximum 0.5-0.6 pages
- Mechanistic explanation: 1-2 brief paragraphs only (6-10 sentences max)
- Key evidence: 2-3 bullet points only
- Core assumptions: 1-2 items only
- If content is longer, move details to appendices
-
Break Long Content: If a hypothesis requires extensive explanation, split across main text and appendix:
- Main text box: Brief mechanistic overview + 2-3 key evidence points
- Appendix A: Detailed mechanism explanation, comprehensive evidence, extended discussion
-
Test Page Boundaries: Before each new box, consider if remaining page space is sufficient. If less than 0.6 pages remain, use
to start the box on a fresh page.
-
Appendix Page Management: In appendices, use
between major sections to avoid overflow in detailed content areas.

for detailed examples of all box types, color schemes, and common formatting patterns.
使用
assets/hypothesis_report_template.tex
中的模板生成专业LaTeX文档。报告应格式规范，使用彩色方框进行视觉组织，分为简洁的正文和详尽的附录。
文档结构：
正文（最多4页）：
- 执行摘要 - 摘要框中的简要概述（0.5-1页）
- 竞争性假设 - 每个假设放在单独的彩色方框中，包含简要的机制解释和关键证据（3-5个假设占2-2.5页）
- 重要提示： 在每个假设框前使用命令，防止内容溢出
- 每个方框最多≤0.6页
- 可测试预测 - 关键预测放在琥珀色方框中（0.5-1页）
- 关键比较 - 优先级比较方框（0.5-1页）
正文需高度简洁 - 仅保留最必要的信息。所有细节放入附录。
分页策略：
- 始终在假设框前使用命令，确保其从新页面开始
- 这可防止内容溢出页面边界
- LaTeX方框（tcolorbox）不会自动跨页拆分
附录（详尽、详细）：
- 附录A： 全面的文献综述，包含大量引用
- 附录B： 详细的实验设计和完整方案
- 附录C： 质量评估表和详细评估结果
- 附录D： 补充证据和类似系统
彩色方框使用：
使用
hypothesis_generation.sty
中的自定义方框环境：
- 至 - 用于每个竞争性假设（蓝色、绿色、紫色、蓝绿色、橙色）
- - 用于可测试预测（琥珀色）
- - 用于关键比较（钢灰色）
- - 用于突出支持证据（浅蓝色）
- - 用于执行摘要（蓝色）
每个假设框应包含（为满足4页限制，请保持简洁）：
- 机制解释： 1-2段简短内容（最多6-10句话），解释作用方式和原因
- 关键支持证据： 2-3个带引用的要点（仅保留最重要的证据）
- 核心假设： 1-2个关键假设
所有详细解释、额外证据和全面讨论均放入附录。
引用要求：
所有主张均需大量引用支持：
- 正文： 10-15个关键引用（仅保留最重要的证据，以满足4页限制）
- 附录A： 40-70+个全面引用，涵盖所有相关文献
- 目标总引用数： 50+篇参考文献
正文引用应具有选择性 - 仅引用最关键的论文。所有全面引用和详细文献讨论均放入附录。使用
进行括号引用。
LaTeX编译：
模板需要XeLaTeX或LuaLaTeX才能正确渲染：
bash
xelatex hypothesis_report.tex
bibtex hypothesis_report
xelatex hypothesis_report.tex
xelatex hypothesis_report.tex
所需包： hypothesis_generation.sty
样式包必须位于同一目录或LaTeX路径中。它依赖以下包：tcolorbox、xcolor、fontspec、fancyhdr、titlesec、enumitem、booktabs、natbib。
页面溢出预防：
为防止内容溢出页面，请遵循以下关键指南：
-
监控方框内容长度： 每个假设框应能舒适地放在单个页面上。如果内容超过约0.7页，很可能会溢出。
-
latex
\newpage
\begin{hypothesisbox1}[Hypothesis 1: Title]
% Long content here
\end{hypothesisbox1}
-
保持正文方框简洁： 为满足4页正文限制：
- 每个假设框：最多0.5-0.6页
- 机制解释：仅1-2段简短内容（最多6-10句话）
- 关键证据：仅2-3个要点
- 核心假设：仅1-2项
- 如果内容过长，将细节移至附录
-
拆分长内容： 如果某个假设需要大量解释，将其拆分为正文和附录两部分：
- 正文方框：简要机制概述 + 2-3个关键证据点
- 附录A：详细机制解释、全面证据、扩展讨论
-
测试页面边界： 在每个新方框前，考虑剩余页面空间是否足够。如果剩余空间不足0.6页，使用
让方框从新页面开始。
-
附录页面管理： 在附录中，主要部分之间使用
，避免详细内容区域溢出。
