Research Design Positioning

研究设计定位

Turn rough ideas, literature gaps, and hunches into researchable questions and defensible contribution claims. Use this before experiments, SOTA synthesis, or paper drafting when the project is not yet falsifiable and scoped.

将粗略的想法、文献空白和初步构想转化为可研究的问题和具有说服力的贡献主张。适用于项目尚未明确可证伪性和研究范围时，在开展实验、SOTA综述或论文撰写之前使用。

Workflow

工作流程

State the problem, target community, and why the field should care now.
Extract candidate gaps from
```
sota/gaps.md
```
,
```
sota/synthesis.md
```
, source pages, and venue expectations.
Draft candidate research questions and reject questions that cannot be answered with available sources, data, experiments, or defensible analysis.
Convert viable questions into contribution claims and identify the closest prior work for each claim.
Define constructs, variables, units of analysis, operational definitions, and scope boundaries.
State hypotheses or expected patterns when appropriate.
Define the minimum evidence needed: SOTA, dataset, experiment, qualitative coding, reproduction, benchmark, expert judgment, or artifact evaluation.
Mark claims as hypothesis, partial, supported, rejected, or out of scope.
Save the stable version in
```
docs/methodology/research-design.md
```
.
Add open issues to
```
wiki/open_questions.md
```
or
```
wiki/questions/
```
.

阐述研究问题、目标受众群体，以及当前该领域为何应关注此问题。
从
```
sota/gaps.md
```
、
```
sota/synthesis.md
```
、原始文献页面和目标期刊/会议的要求中提取潜在研究空白。
草拟候选研究问题，剔除那些无法通过现有资料、数据、实验或严谨分析来解答的问题。
将可行的研究问题转化为贡献主张，并确定每个主张最相关的前沿研究成果。
界定构念、变量、分析单元、操作定义和研究范围边界。
适当时提出假设或预期模式。
明确所需的最低证据类型：SOTA研究、数据集、实验、质性编码、复现研究、基准测试、专家判断或成果评估。
将主张标记为假设性、部分成立、已验证、已推翻或超出范围。
将稳定版本保存至
```
docs/methodology/research-design.md
```
。
将未解决的问题添加至
```
wiki/open_questions.md
```
或
```

```
目录下。

Contribution Types

贡献类型

empirical finding
method, algorithm, model, or system
dataset, benchmark, taxonomy, or measurement instrument
reproduction, replication, or negative result
theory, conceptual reframing, or design framework
survey, mapping study, or structured literature synthesis

实证发现
方法、算法、模型或系统
数据集、基准、分类体系或测量工具
复现研究、重复实验或阴性结果
理论、概念重构或设计框架
调研、图谱研究或结构化文献综述

Quality Gate

质量关卡

A research design is not ready for experiments or writing until it has:

problem, audience, and venue fit
research questions with scope and evidence path
closest prior work and specific delta
operational definitions for key constructs
success criteria and failure condition
minimum evidence needed for each claim
threat that could invalidate the contribution

研究设计需满足以下条件，方可进入实验或写作阶段：

研究问题、受众与目标出版渠道相匹配
研究问题明确范围和证据获取路径
明确最相关的前沿研究及具体创新点
关键构念的操作定义清晰
明确成功标准与失败条件
每个贡献主张所需的最低证据明确
可能推翻贡献的潜在风险明确

注意事项

Treat "no one has done X" as novelty without searching.
Claim generality beyond the intended population, benchmark, domain, or source base.
Start drafting the paper before identifying the strongest adjacent work.
Let an interesting question survive if it has no evidence path.

未经过充分检索，不得将“无人做过X”作为创新性依据。
不得主张超出目标人群、基准测试、研究领域或资料来源范围的普适性。
在确定最相关的前沿研究之前，不得开始撰写论文。
若某个有趣的问题没有可行的证据获取路径，应予以舍弃。
