Urdu paraphrased text reuse and plagiarism detection using pre-trained large language models and deep hybrid neural networks
摘要
The growing prevalence of text reuse and plagiarism in various fields has led to an urgent need for reliable computational methods for detection. However, current commercial plagiarism detection systems are ineffective in identifying paraphrased cases of text reuse, highlighting the need for improvement. Previous research on paraphrased text reuse and plagiarism detection has mainly focused on English, European, Persian, and Arabic languages, and very few studies have been reported on the under-resourced Urdu language. This study aims to overcome this research gap by using a Deep Neural Network (DNN) based architecture and pre-trained Large Language Models (LLMs) for the task of Urdu paraphrased text reuse and plagiarism detection. The architecture called Deep Text Reuse and Paraphrased Plagiarism Detection (D-TRaPPD), relies on LLMs for input and utilizes CNN and LSTM to extract essential textual features. Moreover, we have proposed and evaluated two D-TRaPPD variants, Word Embeddings-D-TRaPPD (WE-D-TRaPPD) and Sentence Embeddings-D-TRaPPD (SE-D-TRaPPD), using two gold standard document-level corpora containing both real and simulated cases of Urdu paraphrased text reuse and plagiarism. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of the D-TRaPPD architecture, with SE-D-TRaPPD achieving the highest
