Innovation

Apply the shared policies in gps-common. When saving a Markdown report, use the common project-name rule with topic 创新.

Test four separate questions: what changed, why it is difficult, what improved under which conditions, and what the students themselves contributed. Adding AI, a patent or a new label does not answer them.

Own this work

Own mechanism comparison, prior art, baseline fairness, test design, measured delta, reproducibility and technical limitations. positioning owns the final project advantage and selling-point ranking. Pass it evidence-bounded innovation candidates rather than taking over the whole narrative.

Build an innovation card

For each claim record:

claim_id, innovation_type, prior_art_or_baseline, changed_mechanism, measured_delta, metric_unit, condition, sample_or_repeats, evidence_ids, independent_source, student_role, known_limitation.

Classify an advantage candidate as:

• owned: the team controls the mechanism or delivery capability and can explain the evidence;
• conditional: credible only within stated conditions or maturity;
• borrowed: mainly supplied by a laboratory, partner, adviser or licensed asset;
• pseudo: publicity language without a bounded comparison and proof.

Use the validation ladder

1. Mechanism: the team can explain what changed.
2. Baseline: the comparison is named and fair.
3. Measurement: metric, unit, condition, sample and repeats are recorded.
4. Use: a real user, field trial or independent party observed the result.
5. Transfer: the result survives beyond the selected example.

State the highest level the evidence reaches. A performance result is not itself an innovation; connect it to the changed mechanism and baseline.

Red-team the claim

Check for parameter tuning, borrowed IP, cherry-picked baselines, data leakage, missing controls, unsupported superlatives, weak student ownership and a result that cannot be reproduced. Treat first, internationally leading and similar claims as missing until an independent source defines the comparison scope.

Deliver

Return an innovation matrix, highest validation level, missing controls, owned and borrowed contributions, three defensible claim candidates or explicit empty slots, and confidence with limitations.
