novelty-assessment

You can assess research novelty by extracting 3-5 closest related works from an existing literature review or manual inputs. The evaluation builds a contribution comparison matrix and assigns a novelty classification ranging from novel method to incremental.

A contribution comparison matrix benchmarks your proposed research against prior works by tabulating differences in problem setting, method, key insights, and evaluation. It reveals overlap and guides differentiation strategies to increase novelty.

Yes, you can evaluate research novelty without a completed literature review by using Standalone mode. This mode accepts manual inputs or uses web search to identify candidate related works, whereas Pipeline mode processes existing literature review outputs.

You can determine if your contribution meets target venue novelty requirements through venue calibration. This assesses the novelty delta of your work against the specific acceptance criteria of the publication venue.

If your research is classified as incremental, you should apply the proposed differentiation strategies to increase novelty. The assessment provides concrete suggestions to elevate the contribution towards a novel method, application, or analysis category.

Novelty classification is determined by calculating the delta between your proposal and prior works within the contribution comparison matrix. This process assigns categories including novel method, novel application, novel analysis, scale improvement, or incremental.
