| Story (A paragraph or two describing what happens) | The repository system (with the help of Unplag module) will automatically scan the uploaded file(s) for similarity across the repository (and optionally Internet) and will return similarity score and detailed similarity report for the submission. Report will provide detailed information about similarity matches with content in the repository (and on the Internet), showing matched text areas, similarity %, links to sources etc. The purpose of the check is to ensure that uploaded file meets the quality standards (academic integrity standards in writing) of the institution. Papers that fall below certain originality % will be returned for revision. This automatic check is not a replacement for upstream quality control measures, but adds additional layer of QC - it’s a final quality filter before making a permanent deposit. |
