PaperDoctor is an agent framework that provides evidence‑grounded, actionable feedback for scientific papers before submission. It evaluates writing, layout, references, code, theory, prior work, and experiments through a three‑layer hierarchical system, linking each critique to specific evidence and revision suggestions. The system selectively rebuilds and reruns experiments to uncover reproducibility gaps, and an interactive interface lets authors explore findings tied to their manuscript.

The paper presents an LLM-driven framework that splits peer reviews into argumentative segments, detects multiple co-occurring issues such as lazy thinking and lack of specificity, and generates targeted, guideline-aware feedback using issue-specific templates. An iterative, reranking-based generation algorithm refines the feedback, and a controlled rewriting study shows it can reduce guideline violations by up to 92.4%. The authors also release LazyReviewPlus, a multi-label dataset of 1,309 sentences annotated for detecting lazy thinking and lack of specificity.

arXiv:2608. 08975v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: As large language models increasingly participate in scientific evaluation, we investigate a potential form of reward hacking: how rhetorical choices shape AI-review judgments when reported scientific content is preserved and how these effects vary across evaluation conditions.
