Abstract:
This paper deals with a problem in the area of Cross-Language Plagiarism Detection. In particular, it presents a system, able to detect portions of a Wikipedia page, which have been obtained by translating a Wikipedia page on the same semantic content but written in a different language. The problem is relevant in the context of Wikipedia pages maintenance, and could be of interest in other areas such as news comparison in different languages. We discuss the problem, the system and its implementation and briefly present its evaluation.
