Automated Plagiarism Detection System for Malayalam Text Documents

In this paper, a plagiarism detection tool for plagiarism detection in Malayalam documents is presented. Many language-sensitive tools for detecting plagiarism in natural language documents have been developed, particularly for English. Detecting plagiarism in Malayalam documents is particularly a challenging task because of the complex linguistic structure of Malayalam. The plagiarism detection tool presented here has the mechanism of detecting similarity beyond exact words match of Malayalam documents. . The tool is based on a new comparison algorithm that uses some NLP techniques to compare suspect documents which may not be identified using existing methods for Malayalam document plagiarism detection.
