About SimilaR

Aims

R is an open source language and environment for statistical computing and graphics. Its high popularity is mainly due to the committed community of users who are willing to spend their time on developing new features, methods and algorithms. As a result of their work, R is becoming a serious alternative to other data analysis-oriented, commercial software solutions.

It may be observed that R is being more and more eagerly taught at universities. In order to guarantee the high quality of the education processes, automated methods for plagiarism detection, e.g. in students' homework submissions, are of high importance.

The purpose of this project is to:

• Create useful, easy to use and robust tool for detecting code similarity in R code

SimilaR in 5 easy steps:

• Create an account.
• Wait for our acceptance (are you a university lecturer?).
• Upload your files in R language.
• Inspect the results.
• Assure yourself that everyone plays fair.

Some notes:

• Our system performs pairwise comparisons of R functions' source codes (currently, S4 methods are not supported).
• It does not compare files you uploaded with files over the Internet. Only manually uploaded files are taken into account.
