Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

In recent days, there has been a lot of discussion about plagiarism in higher education. Students may utilise Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies like ChatGPT (Chat Generative Pre-trained Transformer) and chatbots to produce answers to use in their academic writing. The growth of artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot technology and its impact on education is a trending topic, and especially ChatGPT has sparked worries among scholars. The main objective of this study is to discover publication trends and to realize the network visualisation of the co-occurrence of keywords, co-authorship of countries, citation and co-citation of authors and countries, and bibliographic coupling analysis in the context of plagiarism. This study used the bibliometric analysis method. The Web of Science was used to extract publication data. The word “plagiarism” is used to search the literature, and we found 3282 publications published between 1989 and 2023. VOSviewer software is used to visualize bibliometric networks of publications. Results show that the highest amount of research was produced in 2019, and the number of publications increased rapidly. The United States of America (USA), the United Kingdom (UK), China, Australia, and Canada contributed the most publications. Elsevier, Springer, Taylor & Francis, Wiley, and Sage are top publishers that produce a large number of publications on plagiarism. This analysis gives a comprehensive perspective on plagiarism research for scholars, which will also be useful for educators, educational institutions, and publishers.

Direct model labels (unvalidated)

Per-model category and study-design labels from the labeling rounds. They are machine output, unvalidated, and the disagreement between models ships as data. No study design here is MEDLINE-validated yet.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
