Semantic Similarity and Plagiarism Checker

Abstract

Today all educational institutes stress on the importance of continuous evaluation. This directly impacts the number of assessments to be done for various projects, quizzes, assignments, and exams. It becomes a time and resource- intensive task for the instructors to evaluate these submissions with accuracy. Additionally, the instructor also needs to keep a check on whether any student has plagiarized from the web or if there is any case of intrinsic plagiarism among the students. With a huge set of information on the internet, one can easily get away with plagiarism. There are tools available for such requirements, but almost all of them are paid, and moreover, instructors need to run them one by one, which is a difficult task in itself. Thus, we developed a one-stop solution for the entire problem, which, as per our knowledge, is not in place. We have developed a single tool that can measure semantic plagiarism (based on meaning), text entailment, online plagiarism, and real plagiarism as well. In the future, work can be aligned in the direction of semantics of research papers as well to grade answers.
