Novelty Matrix (overlap vs delta)

新颖性矩阵(重叠点vs差异点)

Goal: make novelty/positioning concrete by aligning each contribution against the closest prior work.
目标:通过将每项贡献与最相近的相关研究对齐,明确新颖性/定位。

Inputs

输入

Required:
  • output/CLAIMS.md
Optional:
  • A provided list of related work (titles/URLs/DOIs) or the submission’s reference list
必填:
  • output/CLAIMS.md
可选:
  • 提供的相关研究列表(标题/链接/DOI)或提交成果的参考文献列表

Outputs

输出

  • output/NOVELTY_MATRIX.md
  • output/NOVELTY_MATRIX.md

Output format (recommended)

推荐输出格式

  • Rows: contributions/claims (from
    output/CLAIMS.md
    )
  • Columns: closest related works (provided or cited by the paper)
  • For each row/column, record:
    • overlap
      : what is the same
    • delta
      : what is different/new
    • evidence
      : where this is supported (paper statement / citation / method difference)
  • 行:贡献/claims(来自
    output/CLAIMS.md
  • 列:最相近的相关研究(提供的或论文引用的)
  • 针对每个行列单元格,记录:
    • overlap
      :相同之处
    • delta
      :不同/创新之处
    • evidence
      :支持来源(论文陈述/引用/方法差异)

Workflow

工作流

  1. Extract the contribution list from
    output/CLAIMS.md
    .
  2. Pick ≥5 closest related works (or state explicitly why you cannot).
  3. For each contribution, compare to each related work:
    • identify overlap
    • identify delta
    • attach evidence (quote/section/citation pointer)
  4. Summarize:
    • which contributions look clearly novel
    • which ones look like incremental variants
  1. output/CLAIMS.md
    中提取贡献列表。
  2. 选择≥5项最相近的相关研究(或明确说明无法选择的原因)。
  3. 针对每项贡献,与每项相关研究进行对比:
    • 识别重叠点
    • 识别差异点
    • 添加证据(引用/章节/引用指针)
  4. 总结:
    • 哪些贡献具有明显的新颖性
    • 哪些属于增量变体

Definition of Done

完成定义

  • Matrix includes ≥5 related works or explains why unavailable.
  • Every “delta” entry has a short evidence pointer (not just opinion).
  • 矩阵包含≥5项相关研究,或说明无法获取的原因。
  • 每个“delta”条目都有简短的证据指针(而非仅主观意见)。

Troubleshooting

故障排除

Issue: no related works list is available

问题:无相关研究列表可用

Fix:
  • Use the paper’s own citations as the initial related set; if even that is missing, mark
    needs_related_work_list
    and stop.
解决方法
  • 使用论文自身的引用作为初始相关研究集合;如果连引用都缺失,标记
    needs_related_work_list
    并停止操作。

Issue: overlap/delta becomes vague

问题:overlap/delta描述模糊

Fix:
  • Force each cell to reference a concrete axis (problem setting, method component, training data, evaluation protocol, result).
解决方法
  • 强制每个单元格参考具体维度(问题设定、方法组件、训练数据、评估协议、结果)。
