Most plagiarism detection systems evaluate the similarity of source codes and detect plagiarized program pairs. If we use the source codes in plagiarism detection, the source code security can be a significant problem. Plagiarism detection based on target code can be used for protecting the security of source codes. In this paper, we propose a new plagiarism detection technique for Java programs using bytecodes without referring their source codes. The plagiarism detection procedure using bytecode consists of two major steps. First, we generate the token sequences from the Java class file by analyzing the code area of methods. Then, we evaluate the similarity between token sequences using the adaptive local alignment. According to the experimental results, we can find the distributions of similarities of the source codes and that of bytecodes are very similar. Also, the correlation between the similarities of source code pairs and those of bytecode pairs is high enough for typical test data. The plagiarism detection system using bytecode can be used as a preliminary verifying tool before detecting the plagiarism by source code comparison.

As the software industry develops at a rate speed, anyone can copy or plagiarize without difficulty contents that are becoming digitalized. To make it worse, the development of various contents that be illegally copied and plagiarized are resulting in the increasing infringement on and the plagiarism of the intellectual property. This dissertation tries to put forth the method and the theory to effectively detect any plagiarism of the source code of programs realized in various languages. This dissertation analyzes the advantage and disadvantage of the plagiarism test software, and especially, presents a method to detect possible plagiarism by using the Pattern Matching to overcome its disadvantage. And it also intends to introduce more developed automatic detection system by overcoming the problems with the method of Pattern Matching.

Earlier program plagiarism check systems are performed by using simple text, attribute or token string base on match techniques. They have difficulties in checking program styles which have nothing to do with program syntax such as indentation, spacing and comments. This paper introduces a plagiarism check model which compares syntax-trees for the given programs. By using syntax-trees, this system can overcome the weekness of filtering program styles and have advantage of comparing the structure of programs by syntax and semantic analysis. Our study introduces syntactic tree creation, unparsing and similarity check algorithms about C/C++ program plagiarism checking for internet cyber education and estimate plagiarism pattern.

Plagiarism detection is increasingly exploiting text alignment. Text alignment involves extracting the plagiarism passages in a pair of the suspicious document and its source document. The heuristics have achieved excellent performance in text alignment. However, the further improvements of the heuristic methods mainly depends more on the experiences of experts, which makes the heuristics lack of the abilities for continuous improvements. To address this problem, machine learning maybe a proper way. Considering the position relations and the context of text segments pairs, we formalize the text alignment task as a problem of sequence labeling, improving the current methods at the model level. Especially, this paper proposes to use the probabilistic graphical model to tag the observed sequence of pairs of text segments. Hence we present the sequence labeling approach for text alignment in plagiarism detection based on Conditional Random Fields. The proposed approach is evaluated on the PAN@CLEF 2012 artificial high obfuscation plagiarism corpus and the simulated paraphrase plagiarism corpus, and compared with the methods achieved the best performance in PAN@CLEF 2012, 2013 and 2014. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed approach significantly outperforms the state of the art methods.

Due to its role in maintaining the health of scientific societies, research ethics (or integrity) is notably receiving attention by academia, governments and even individuals who are not engaged in scientific researches. In this paper, I will introduce some valuable papers dealt with plagiarism as a representative research misconduct. In general, researcher's results that will soon be published must meet the crucial scientific criteria: originality, accuracy, reproducibility, precision and research ethics. The definition of plagiarism is "appropriation of another person's ideas, processes, results, or words without giving appropriate credit." Compared to fabrication and falcification, plagiarism is often considered as a minor misconduct. With intentionality, however, plagiarism can be corresponding to 'theft of intellectual product'. The context of plagiarism is not restricted to the stage of publication. It can be extended to prior stages of proposing (i.e. preparing the research proposal) and performing (executing the research), and reviewing (writing the review papers). Duplicate publication is regarded as a self-plagiarism in broad interpretation of plagiarism. To avoid dangers of plagiarism, earnest efforts from all members of scientific community are needed. First of all, researchers should keep 'transparency' and 'integrity' in their scientific works. Editorial board members and reviewers should keep fairness and well-deserved qualification. Government and research foundations must be willing to provide sufficient financial and policy support to the scientific societies; Up-graded editorial services, making good use of plagiarism detection tools, and thorough instruction on how to write a honest scientific paper will contribute to building up a healthy basis for scientific communities.

Plagiarism in which people use other people's works partially or in entirety as if they are their own and infringement on copyrights that frequently occur in various forms under smart device environment are becoming one of the crucial problems that need to be solved for Korea to become an advanced nation. This paper investigates and analyzes how college students, the heaviest user of smart devices under various smart device environment, are committing plagiarism and copyright infringement and suggest a basic education plan to prevent plagiarism and copyright infringement. College students have a very low awareness of plagiarism and copyrights and the level of violation associated with plagiarism and copyrights infringement they commit from elementary school to college were found to be at a serious level. It was demonstrated that the solution suggested in this paper to solve these problems would be effective in enhancing the awareness of the bad effect of plagiarism and copyrights infringement along with their side effects.

The purpose of this paper is researching musical elements to analyze plagiarism between two sources. We first search digital music elements to analyze music source and examine how to use these in plagiarism analysis using compiler techniques. In addition we are used open source Java API JFugue to process complex MIDI music data simply. Therefore we designed music plagiarism analysis system by using MusicString which is supported in JFugue and construct AST after investigate MusicString's syntax processing elements to manipulate music plagiarism analysis efficiently. So far music plagiarism analysis is evaluated emotionally and subjectively. But this paper suggests first step to build plagiarism analysis systemically. If this research is well utilized, this is very meaningful to standardize systemically which music is plagiarized or not.
