Source-specific report

How Zoho Writer's plagiarism detector works

Zia compares your document's content with the content analyzed on the top five matching sites to detect different types of plagiarism, including:

• Direct match: Keyphrases from the document and the top five website content are compared to determine direct plagiarism.

• Paraphrased sentences: Cosine similarity is measured for the content in the document and the top five websites to detect paraphrased sentences or content.

• Word order match: Compare content from your document and the matching websites to locate word order matches. Besides direct matches, sentences in a different order are also highlighted as potential plagiarism.

Common knowledge content check to avoid false positives

Common knowledge is information that is widely known but cannot be attributed to any specific authority or owner. Zia's AI-driven algorithm analyzes your document content to determine if they have common knowledge content, and doesn't highlight them to avoid false positives.
