Explanation

Similarity checks exclude all generic terms, standard laws and equations along with the bibliography or references.

These sections are common scholarly content that cannot count as copied text.

The abstract is original writing and is fully screened for similarity.

Observations report the study's own data yet are still included in the check.

Conclusions present the author's interpretation and are also screened.

UGC 2018 further exempts quoted matter with permission and text under fourteen consecutive words.
