--- name: de-aigc-skills description: 中英双语学术降 AIGC / bilingual academic de-AIGC skill. Removes AI-generated writing signatures from empirical papers in economics, management, and the social sciences — in both English and Chinese. Covers Turnitin AI, GPTZero, Originality.ai on the English side and 知网 AMLC, 万方, 维普 on the Chinese side. Uses a six-step loop (intake → audit → claim-evidence check → differentiated rewrite → five-dimension self-score → cold-reader recheck) with two pattern libraries (22 English + 17 Chinese patterns), section-by-section strategies for empirical papers, and hard protections that keep every number, coefficient, and citation intact. triggers: - de-AIGC - 降 AIGC - 降低 AIGC - 去 AI 味 - 去 AI 痕迹 - humanize academic paper - remove AI writing patterns - AI detection academic - 知网 AIGC 检测 - 万方 AIGC - 维普检测 - Turnitin AI - GPTZero - humanize empirical paper - 人工化重写 --- # De-AIGC Skills · 中英双语学术降 AIGC > Restore the language distribution of a real researcher — in English or Chinese — > for empirical papers in economics, management, and the social sciences. > Not synonym swapping. Not sentence shuffling. **Systematic reconstruction of the > statistical signatures that mark a manuscript as AI-generated.** ## Scope 适用范围 **Papers**: empirical work in economics, management, finance, accounting, sociology, political science, education, public policy — anything built on data, identification, and regression tables. Theory papers and pure humanities essays are out of scope (most patterns still transfer, but the section strategies assume an empirical skeleton). **Languages**: - **English manuscripts** — targets Turnitin AI, GPTZero, Originality.ai, Copyleaks - **Chinese manuscripts** — targets 知网 AMLC、万方、维普通达、Turnitin 中文版 - **Mixed manuscripts** — a Chinese paper with an English abstract, or a bilingual submission package: run each part through its own pattern library, then check cross-language consistency (the English abstract must not overclaim what the Chinese conclusion hedges, and vice versa) **Typical situations**: - Self-checking AIGC rate before journal submission (中文期刊投稿 / SSCI submission) - Dissertations facing 知网 AMLC or a university's Turnitin AI screen - Grant proposals, working papers, and reports drafted with AI assistance - A human-written draft that detectors misclassify as AI (this happens often — formulaic academic prose looks like AI to n-gram detectors) ## What does NOT work 无效做法 1. ❌ **Synonym replacement** — detectors read n-gram distributions, not word lists. 把"关键"改成"核心"、"important" 改成 "crucial" 毫无作用。 2. ❌ **Sentence inversion** — flipping "Because A, B" to "B, because A" leaves the syntactic template intact. 3. ❌ **Feeding the text to another AI for a "rewrite"** — swaps one AI's signature for another's. Paraphraser tools are the fastest way to a *higher* AI score. 4. ❌ **Injecting typos or awkward grammar to "look human"** — human experts do not write badly; graders and reviewers notice, and modern detectors are not fooled. **What works**: targeted destruction of the *structural* signatures listed below, plus restoring the concrete, hedged, evidence-anchored voice of a real researcher. ## Structural signatures 结构性特征 The two languages fail differently. English LLM output leans on inflated significance and participle padding; Chinese LLM output leans on four-character formulas and connective scaffolding. The one signature they share — and the single highest-impact fix in either language — is **uniform sentence rhythm**. **English AI text** (details and fixes: `references/patterns-en.md`, EN01–EN22): 1. Inflated significance — "pivotal", "underscores the importance", "paves the way" 2. Superficial "-ing" tails — "…, highlighting the need for further research" 3. Formulaic scaffolding — "In recent years…", Moreover/Furthermore chains, rule-of-three lists, "not only… but also" 4. Overclaiming verbs with underpowered evidence — "proves", "demonstrates", "establishes" hanging off an observational coefficient 5. Low sentence-length variance — nearly all sentences 20–30 words **Chinese AI text** (details and fixes: `references/patterns-zh.md`, ZH01–ZH17): 1. 四字套话密度过高 — 每 200 字 3+ 个"综上所述/毋庸置疑/显而易见" 2. 虚词与关联词冗余 — "此外/因此/而且/在此基础上"机械堆叠 3. 主语回避 — 满篇"本文认为/相关研究表明",没有具体的研究者和文献 4. 句长方差低 — 句子集中在 20–35 字,缺乏节奏跳跃 5. 结论绝对化 — "充分证明了/必然导致/毫无疑问" ## The six-step loop 六步闭环 ``` 0. 定位路由 1. 审计扫描 2. 主张-证据核对 Intake → Audit → Claim–evidence │ 5. 冷读复查 4. 五维自评 3. 差异化改写 Recheck ← Self-score ← Rewrite ``` ### Step 0 · Intake & routing 定位路由 Before touching the text: 1. **Detect language(s)** — route each part to the right pattern library (`patterns-en.md` / `patterns-zh.md`). For mixed manuscripts, note which sections are which. 2. **Map sections** — abstract, intro, literature, data, empirical strategy, results, mechanisms, robustness, discussion, conclusion. Rewrite intensity differs sharply by section (`references/sections.md`). 3. **Identify the venue** — a Chinese CSSCI journal, an SSCI field journal, and a dissertation committee have different tolerances for first-person voice and hedging. Ask the user if unclear. 4. **Ask for a voice sample** (optional but powerful) — if the author has earlier *human-written* papers or paragraphs, match their sentence rhythm, connective habits, and hedging placement instead of a generic "human" style. ### Step 1 · Audit scan 审计扫描 Scan the full text against both pattern libraries and output a **structured audit report — do not edit anything yet**. The author must see the whole picture first. ```markdown ## AI-signature audit / AI 痕迹审计 | ¶ | Excerpt 原文片段 | Rule 规则 | Severity 严重度 | |---|-----------------|----------|----------------| | 2 | "毋庸置疑,数字化转型…" | ZH01 四字套话 | 🔴 | | 5 | "…, underscoring the importance of digital…" | EN02 -ing tail | 🔴 | | 7 | "This proves that the reform caused…" | EN10 overclaiming verb | 🔴 | ``` Include a summary line: total hits per severity, the 3 worst sections, and the estimated rewrite depth (light polish / section rewrites / full-pass rewrite). ### Step 2 · Claim–evidence audit 主张-证据核对 Empirical papers live or die on the match between **verbs and evidence strength**. This step is what makes de-AIGC for empirical work different from generic humanizing: - Every causal or quantitative claim must anchor to a **number, table, figure, or citation**. "显著提升企业绩效" → which table, which column, which coefficient? - **Verb ↔ design match**: - Clean identification (RCT, sharp RD, well-defended DiD) → direct statements are fine: "the reform *reduced* entry by 12%" - Observational / correlational → "is associated with", "与…相关" - Suggestive / mechanism evidence → "is consistent with", "为…提供了证据", "这与…的解释一致" - Flag every "prove/demonstrate/establish/充分证明/必然导致" whose design cannot carry that weight — and every unsupported "significant/显著" with no test statistic. - **Never resolve a mismatch by inventing evidence.** If a claim has no anchor, flag it for the author; weakening the verb is the default fix. ### Step 3 · Differentiated rewrite 差异化改写 Work through the audit list, section by section, using the per-section strategies in `references/sections.md`. Priorities, in order of impact: 1. **Break the rhythm ceiling first** 先砸句长方差 — this is the single highest-leverage fix in both languages. Per ~200 words (or 200 字): at least one short sentence (≤8 words / ≤15 字) and one long sentence (≥40 words / ≥50 字). Short sentences open questions or land emphasis ("The data say otherwise." / "数据讲了另一个故事。"); long sentences carry the evidence. 2. **Concretize** 具体化 — replace vague attributions and inflated adjectives with data, authors, years: "相关研究表明" → "Acemoglu and Restrepo (2020) estimate…"; "profound impact" → "raised TFP by 4.3% (t = 3.81)". 3. **De-scaffold** 拆脚手架 — remove paragraph-initial connectives (Moreover/Furthermore/此外/因此) and ordinal chains (首先…其次…最后 / First… Second… Finally) outside genuine enumerations; connect paragraphs by **semantic relay** (the next sentence picks up the previous sentence's key noun). 4. **Recalibrate claims** 校准断言 — apply Step 2's verb ↔ design matches; add epistemic hedges where missing, and *simplify* stacked hedges where the model piled up "may potentially suggest the possibility that…". 5. **Restore researcher voice** 恢复研究者声音 — show choices and trade-offs: "We use X rather than Y because…" / "受限于数据,我们无法识别…". Admitting a limitation or a surprise is the hardest pattern for an LLM to fake. **Hard protections 硬性红线** — regardless of what the patterns say: - Never alter numbers, coefficients, standard errors, p-values, sample sizes, equations, variable names, or citation contents. 数据、系数、引用一律不动。 - Never fabricate data, results, citations, or "surprising findings" for flavor. - Never inject errors, slang, or archaic vocabulary to game perplexity. - Never change what the paper claims — only how it says it. - **Do not over-correct**: standard academic phrases are not AI tells. Keep "Notably," / "Prior studies have shown that… (with citations)" / "在 1% 水平上 显著" / "稳健性检验" — flag such phrases only when stacked or citation-free. Full preserve-list: top of `references/patterns-en.md`. ### Step 4 · Five-dimension self-score 五维自评 Score the rewritten text 1–10 per dimension (rubric: `references/scoring.md`): | Dimension 维度 | Weight | Checkpoint | |---|---|---| | Concreteness 具体性 | 1.5× | Vague claims replaced by data / authors / cases? | | Rhythm 节奏性 | 1.2× | Sentence-length variance high enough? Short-long mix? | | Calibration 谨慎性 | 1.3× | Verbs match evidence? Hedges present but not stacked? | | Implicit cohesion 隐衔接 | 1.0× | Paragraphs relay by meaning, not connectives? | | Researcher voice 研究者语气 | 1.0× | Choices, trade-offs, limitations visible? | **Weighted total < 35 → back to Step 3. ≥ 42 → pass.** ### Step 5 · Cold-reader recheck 冷读复查 Re-read the full text as a stranger and run three final checks: 1. **Fluency** — did any fix damage the argument's flow or academic register? 2. **Fidelity** — diff every number, name, year, and citation against the original. Zero drift allowed. 3. **Consistency** — one voice throughout; no visible seam between rewritten and untouched paragraphs; for bilingual packages, EN and ZH parts must make the same claims at the same strength. Deliver: **final text + change log** (which sections changed, which rules fired, what was deliberately left alone) + any unresolved flags from Step 2 that need the author's judgment. ## Works well with 配合使用 - [`44-matsuikentaro1-humanizer_academic`](../44-matsuikentaro1-humanizer_academic/) — English medical/academic pattern source; use for biomedical manuscripts - [`45-stephenturner-skill-deslop`](../45-stephenturner-skill-deslop/) / [`46-hardikpandya-stop-slop`](../46-hardikpandya-stop-slop/) — general English prose de-slopping outside the academic register - [`47-conorbronsdon-avoid-ai-writing`](../47-conorbronsdon-avoid-ai-writing/) — structured audit format for non-academic documents - [`49-voidborne-d-humanize-chinese`](../49-voidborne-d-humanize-chinese/) — general Chinese humanizing beyond the academic register - [`70-ssci-polish`](../70-ssci-polish/) — SSCI-oriented English polish after de-AIGC is done - Draft first, de-AIGC last: run this skill on a *finished* draft, not during drafting — mid-draft humanizing fights the writing process. ## References 参考文件 - `references/patterns-en.md` — 22 English AI-signature patterns (EN01–EN22), each with detection rule + empirical-paper before/after, plus the preserve-list - `references/patterns-zh.md` — 17 类中文 AI 痕迹模式(ZH01–ZH17),含识别规则与修复策略 - `references/sections.md` — section-by-section rewrite strategies for empirical papers, bilingual symptoms and red lines(分章节差异化策略,中英对照) - `references/scoring.md` — five-dimension rubric, bilingual(五维评分量表) - `references/examples-en.md` — English before/after pairs across an empirical paper's sections - `references/examples-zh.md` — 12 组中文改写前后对照(覆盖实证论文各章节) ## Integrity statement 学术诚信声明 The goal is to **return human-written and AI-assisted text to the language distribution of a real researcher** — not to help fully AI-generated work evade detection. - ✅ A researcher's own draft misclassified as AI by a detector - ✅ AI-assisted drafting + human revision, where the author owns every claim - ❌ A fully AI-generated paper the "author" hopes to pass off unread - ❌ Ghostwriting, plagiarism laundering, or data fabrication of any kind **Academic integrity outranks detection scores.** No rewrite may touch the research claims, the data, or the citations — and when a claim lacks evidence, the fix is to flag it, not to hide it.
