Plagiarism Check Process:
- Pre-Review Screening: Upon submission, each paper is subjected to a preliminary plagiarism scan using advanced plagiarism detection software. This initial check helps in identifying any significant issues of similarity with previously published work.
- Software and Tools: We utilize reputable plagiarism detection tools such as Turnitin or iThenticate, which are widely recognized for their efficiency and accuracy in scanning academic and research documents against an extensive database of published material.
- Similarity Index: The plagiarism report generated by the detection software provides a similarity index, which is a percentage of the text in the submission that matches existing sources. This index helps in assessing the level of originality of the paper.
- Maximum Allowed Similarity Percentage: We have set a maximum allowed similarity index of 15%. This threshold is designed to account for common phrases, technical terms, and bibliographic references, which are naturally expected to have some level of similarity with existing literature. It's important to note that the similarity index is considered in the context of the entire document, and a higher percentage of similarity does not automatically imply plagiarism. Each case is evaluated individually, considering the nature of the matched content and its significance within the document.
- Handling High Similarity Scores: Submissions that exceed the maximum allowed similarity index undergo a more detailed review to determine the nature of the matched content. If significant portions of the paper are found to be inadequately original or improperly attributed, the submission may be rejected or returned to the authors for revision. In cases of minor issues, authors may be asked to revise the problematic sections and resubmit their paper.
Through this rigorous plagiarism check process, we aim to maintain the integrity and quality of the research presented at our conference, ensuring that all contributions are both original and respectful of intellectual property rights.
Peer Review Process for the International Conference on Science and Engineering for Humanity
The peer review process is a crucial part of our conference, ensuring the quality and validity of the research presented. Here’s an overview of how it works:
- Submission: Authors submit their research papers or presentation proposals for review.
- Plagiarism Check Process
- Review Assignment: The conference’s Technical Program Committee assigns each submission to reviewers who are experts in the relevant field.
- Review: The reviewers evaluate the submissions based on several criteria, including originality, methodological soundness, and relevance to the conference’s theme. They may use either a single-blind or double-blind review process.
- Decision: After the review, authors are notified of the decision on their paper. The possible outcomes are acceptance, acceptance with revision, or rejection.
- Revision (if applicable): If a paper is accepted with revision, the authors must implement the suggested edits and provide a revised version.
This process ensures that all presentations contribute constructively to the conference’s body of work and adhere to the highest standards of academic integrity.
