Plagiarism Police
Plagiarism, whether intentional or unintentional, is regarded as a serious violation. It involves copying ideas, text, data, or other creative content (such as tables, images, and graphs) and presenting them as original work without proper acknowledgment. Plagiarism is defined as the reproduction of another work with at least 25% similarity and without appropriate citation.
If evidence of plagiarism is found before or after acceptance, or even after the seminar presentation, the author will be given an opportunity to respond. If the explanation is not satisfactory, the paper will be withdrawn, and the author may be prohibited from presenting at future seminars for a period determined by the organizing committee.
All papers submitted to the seminar are subject to plagiarism checks. Submissions that do not meet the required standards will either be returned for revision or rejected. The seminar uses Turnitin as its primary tool for plagiarism detection.
