Fourth international workshop on uncovering plagiarism, authorship, and social software misuse

The Fourth International Workshop on Uncovering Plagiarism, Authorship, and Social Software Misuse (PAN10) was held in conjunction with the 2010 Conference on Multilingual and Multimodal Information Access Evaluation (CLEF-10) in Padua, Italy. The workshop was organized as a competition covering two tasks: plagiarism detection and Wikipedia vandalism detection. This report gives a short overview of the plagiarism detection task. Detailed analyses of both tasks have been published as CLEF Notebook Papers [3, 6], which can be downloaded at www.webis.de/publications.
