Implementação de um algoritmo para auxílio na detecção de plágio em trabalhos acadêmicos

Abstract

The practice of plagiarism is very usual in universities around the world. Papers from colleagues and other textual productions available on the Internet are commonly copied by third parties and assigned as of their own without properly referencing. The amount of forms used for plagiarists turns the task of detection a very hard work. Thus, the major goal of our work is the creation of an algorithm for plagiarism detection by means of the n-gram concept, where such concept has been chosen through a survey of existing detection methods. Moreover, the Lucene's tool has been used for indexing and searching documents.
