Publication at Faculty of Arts |

Abstract

This paper focuses on a test and a comparative analysis of systems for detecting duplicates (so-called anti-plagiarism systems) used for the repositories of higher education theses and dissertations in the CR. A text corpus containing the most frequent sources of plagiarism was created for the needs of the test, and the modifications made by plagiarists were simulated.

The success of duplicity detection by the most important anti-plagiarism systems was verified experimentally, and a comparative analysis and verification of stipulated hypotheses were performed. The evaluation was also performed on the author’s own prototype application using the Google search engine.
