PerPaDa: A Persian Paraphrase Dataset based on Implicit Crowdsourcing Data Collection
Jan 17, 2022
In this paper we introduce PerPaDa, a Persian paraphrase dataset that is collected from users' input in a plagiarism detection system. As an implicit crowdsourcing experience, we have gathered a large collection of original and paraphrased sentences from Hamtajoo; a Persian plagiarism detection system, in which users try to conceal cases of text re-use in their documents by paraphrasing and re-submitting manuscripts for analysis. The compiled dataset contains 2446 instances of paraphrasing. In order to improve the overall quality of the collected data, some heuristics have been used to exclude sentences that don't meet the proposed criteria. The introduced corpus is much larger than the available datasets for the task of paraphrase identification in Persian. Moreover, there is less bias in the data compared to the similar datasets, since the users did not try some fixed predefined rules in order to generate similar texts to their original inputs.
Hamtajoo: A Persian Plagiarism Checker for Academic Manuscripts
Dec 27, 2021
In recent years, due to the high availability of electronic documents through the Web, the plagiarism has become a serious challenge, especially among scholars. Various plagiarism detection systems have been developed to prevent text re-use and to confront plagiarism. Although it is almost easy to detect duplicate text in academic manuscripts, finding patterns of text re-use that has been semantically changed is of great importance. Another important issue is to deal with less resourced languages, which there are low volume of text for training purposes and also low performance in tools for NLP applications. In this paper, we introduce Hamtajoo, a Persian plagiarism detection system for academic manuscripts. Moreover, we describe the overall structure of the system along with the algorithms used in each stage. In order to evaluate the performance of the proposed system, we used a plagiarism detection corpus comply with the PAN standards.
