Dear 9517 Students
Hope you are well and safe.
While reviewing your Assignment 1 and Individual Project, we have found that some of you are unsure about how to properly acknowledge external sources used in writing the report or code. In this notice, we provide some guidelines which may help in avoiding any plagiarism in future.
The Turnitin software used for plagiarism detection in reports highlights all parts of text that are found in other sources, including reports in this and other universities, published papers and web based sources. When reviewing Turnitin reports, we look for highlighted sentences and blocks of text. Blocks of text copied from another source attract higher penalty than single sentences. We also do not count short phrases, such as “training and test set”, “effectiveness and efficiency of the method” or “Support Vector Machine (SVM)” or other commonly used expressions. It is not sufficient to copy a text and change a few words, as the main content still remains the same. Therefore, after reading a paper or an Internet post, we suggest that you use your own words and rephrase the contents of the read material.
Regarding code, please keep in mind that we also have effective tools to detect plagiarism.
If your code is based on any external source, for example Internet repository or source code provided with a paper, it needs to be clearly acknowledged and referenced. The reader of your submission should be able to easily find the code you are referring to and check it against the source you provided. For example you might say “… the code of xxx function is based on [1]”, where [1] refers to a list of references. All references to code should be placed in the report, not the code itself, as we cannot read all the code to find references. Including a source in the reference list but not showing where and how it is being used will still count as plagiarism.
While in the assignment and individual project report we have applied some leniency to referencing, in the coming group project and exam reports we shall be strict in applying the above guidelines. Please ask questions on Piazza if you need further clarification.
We are looking forward to marking your clean and well written reports.
Kind regards
Sowmya, LIC
and COMP9517 team
