Abstract:

Document Copy Detection (DCD) studies on how to find copied text in a
collection of documents plays an important role in Intellectual Property
Protection, and in finding plagiarism in students' work. Though a finding
of plagiarism is ultimately a subjective judgement, it is very useful to
have an automated copy detector in order to save our
valuable reading time. How does the computer compare 2 documents? Is the
computer able to give us a reasonable result? I will present some
methods that address these issues, such as Heavy Frequency Model, Semantic
Sequence Kin, and Common Semantic Sequence Model. I will explain the
underlying principles of these methods and discuss some of their
features.
