What this category's data looks like
This page addresses the scenario of initial review of academic journal submissions. The materials include three categories: submitted manuscripts, author information forms, and plagiarism check reports. Manuscripts carry the main text and references, and are the primary basis for citation sources and traceability; author information forms record names, affiliations, authorship order, and dates, and are used to check whether the names, quantities, and dates of the same record match between the manuscript and the form; plagiarism check reports provide duplicated passages and source annotations for comparison when citation passages are traced back to the original paragraphs. When these three categories of materials enter the deployment, operations, and application handover stage, each plays a different role: manuscripts provide searchable original text, author information forms provide fields and signature evidence, and plagiarism check reports provide source identifiers and comparison clues. The update cadence changes with submission batches and version iterations. The same manuscript may have multiple versions, and during handover, consistency among version, connection, and task records is required for determination. Field characteristics center on names, quantities, dates, signatures, and receipts. Common inconsistencies are the same record not matching across two materials, versions not being synchronized, and missing signatures or receipts.
Configuration and implementation checks
This step is executed by the citation output of the knowledge base retrieval node, which outputs an array of citation content, each item containing an original passage and a source identifier, and the length may be 0. The handover-ready deployment state and operation records are completed subsequently by AI nodes, code nodes, or manual work. The citation array itself is not a discrepancy list, ledger, or report.
| Object | Check | Verification action |
|---|---|---|
| Submitted manuscript | Whether the citation passage can be traced back to the original paragraph, and whether names and dates match the author information form | Open the citation superscript in the conversation, and check the original passage and source identifier one by one against the source document |
| Author information form | Whether names, affiliations, authorship order, dates, and signatures match the manuscript and receipt | Check fields and signatures item by item according to the handover form, and record the locations of missing items |
| Plagiarism check report | Whether duplicated passages and source annotations are synchronized with the manuscript version, and whether quantities and dates match | Compare the version number, date, and passage count of the report and manuscript, and confirm whether the version is not synchronized or the receipt is missing |
| Citation content output | Whether the number of returned items matches the materials hit; empty is also normal | Run a test with a question that has no matching materials, see whether the output is empty while the chain continues, and record the array length and the quoteMaxToken budget |
Three common errors
- Symptom: There is no citation superscript in the answer. Cause: This round did not hit materials, or the citation passage does not match the original text. First check the hit materials, then look at trimming; do not directly attribute it to length trimming.
- Symptom: The names, quantities, and dates of the same record do not match between the manuscript and the author information form. Cause: Versions are not synchronized, or item-by-item checking against the handover form was not performed during entry, and signatures or receipts are missing.
- Symptom: There is an answer but the citation array is empty. Cause: An empty array is a normal output and does not mean retrieval failed; check whether materials were hit, and separately record the array item count and the
quoteMaxTokenbudget.
How to verify the setup
Acceptance for this feature: Ask a question with original-text support, check whether the citation array and superscripts can be traced back to the original text, and inspect the citation passages and source identifiers in responseData (non-streaming module results returned with detailed output enabled); then ask a question with no matching materials, confirm that the array is empty while the chain runs through, and check the quoteList record.
Business test: Perform one item-by-item check according to the handover form and see which item record is missing; only when version, connection, and task records are consistent can it be handed over to operations or the next shift.
- Open the search parameter panel and check item by item, confirm that the associated knowledge base uses the same vector model, and record the array item count and the
quoteMaxTokenbudget; do not compare the two for equality. - Run a test with a question that has no matching materials, see whether the output is empty while the chain continues; then compare the citation passages against the source document to check whether they match the original paragraphs.
