Assignment Plagiarism Checker Tool

This tool asks the user (i.e. Teacher) to select the folder containing the Assignments or Projects and then runs a script to cross check each pdf with each other and shows the Similarity Percentages between each document.

How we built it

we built this tool using python and the libraries we used are as follows :-

  • tkinter
  • PyPDF2
  • difflib
  • OS
  • PIL

Challenges we ran into

Since i am new to tkinter library , it took me some time to figure out how to make this program into a graphical user interface.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

  • The .exe file can be downloaded from the hosted site
  • Easy to use GUI
  • Generates detailed cross-referenced report
  • Brings more clarity to online education ecosystem

What we learned

This was my first time making a Graphical interface in python and i learned a lot and i am confident that this will help me in my future endeavours as well.

What's next for Copy_Detective

In the next phase we plan to make the tool completely online without the need for the user to download the executable file.
