Similarity Threshold

ஒற்றுமை வரம்பு

All submitted manuscripts are screened using plagiarism detection tools. The overall similarity index must be below 20%. Any single source match must be below 5%. Self-plagiarism (reuse of your own previous work without citation) is also considered a violation.

Detection Process

கண்டறிதல் செயல்முறை

Every submission is checked before it enters the peer review stage. If similarity exceeds the threshold, the manuscript is returned to the author with a detailed report and an opportunity to revise and resubmit.

Consequences

விளைவுகள்

Manuscripts found to contain deliberate plagiarism will be desk-rejected without review. If plagiarism is discovered after publication, the article will be retracted and a retraction notice published. Authors may be banned from future submissions.

Proper Attribution

சரியான மேற்கோள்

All sources must be properly cited. Direct quotations must be in quotation marks with page numbers. Paraphrased material must be cited. Translated passages must credit the original source. Data, tables, and figures from other works require explicit permission.

Acceptable Reuse

அனுமதிக்கப்பட்ட பயன்பாடு

Previously published conference papers may be submitted if they have been substantially extended (at least 50% new content). Authors must disclose this in the cover letter and submit the original conference paper alongside the submission.
