150 scoped candidate topics

150 条经过论证的候选课题

Five tracks, two chapters each. Every topic carries a falsifiable hypothesis, a methodology-validation gate, a named novelty boundary, and a dated go/no-go with a degrade path.

五个赛道,每个分全球站与中国站。每条课题都带可证伪假设、方法学校验硬门槛、点名已有工作的新颖性边界,以及带日期与降级路径的 go/no-go 门槛。

Read this before using any topic使用前必读

This is a mentor-side reference and judgement library, not a pool of topics to claim. Conrad rules bar a coach from creating any submitted element or exerting excessive influence on the concept design. Students must run their own asset inventory and their own originality search, and must be able to explain at the Summit why they rejected the alternatives.这是导师侧的参考与判例库,不是可直接认领的题目池。Conrad 规则禁止指导方创作任何提交内容、或对概念设计施加过度影响。学生必须自己做资产盘点与原创性检索,并能在峰会上说清为什么否掉了其他方向。

Novelty boundaries reflect searches run in August 2026. Re-run them at kickoff — judges are required to.各条的新颖性边界反映的是 2026 年 8 月的检索结果。开题时必须重跑——评委被要求做同样的事。

How these were built这些课题是怎么来的

Each list opens with the hard constraints that actually rule topics out, then flags the sub-themes already saturated by the 2026 finalist cohort, then gives 15 topics ordered by feasibility rather than ambition.每份清单先给出真正会否决课题的赛制硬约束,再点明 2026 届决赛队伍已经做满的方向,然后按可行性而非精彩程度给出 15 条。
