Abstract

Nowadays, plagiarism detection becomes as one of the major problems in the text mining field. New coming technologies have made plagiarisation easy and more feasible. Therefore, it is vital to develop a system which can automatically detect plagiarisation in different contents.

In this paper, we propose a Trie to compare source and suspicious text documents. We use PersianPlagDet text documents as a case study. Both character-based and knowledge-based techniques for detection purposes have improved our method. Besides, our fast algorithm for insertion and retrieval has made possible to compare long documents with high-speed.
