Abstract
Plagiarism occurs when a researcher copies fellow researcher’s work verbatim without acknowledging the author. This work developed an automatic plagiarism detector using fuzzy logic. The system developed was tested with 4 different text documents and evaluated using portability, efficiency, functionality, ease of use and accuracy metrics. Results show that the developed plagiarism detector is very easy to use with high functionality and accuracy as well as moderate efficiency and portability based on user’s assessment. However, future work can increase the data size for model training and consider machine learning techniques to improve accuracy.
