Abstract. The automatic detection of shared content in written documents –which includes text reuse and its unacknowledged commitment, plagiarism– has become an important probl...
This paper describes a method, using Genetic Programming, to automatically determine term weighting schemes for the vector space model. Based on a set of queries and their human de...
