Artificial Intelligence Helps in Detecting Cheating in Class Assignments

Artificial Intelligence can help determine whether an
assignment was written by its author or a ghost writer.
The study was done by researchers at Department of Computer
Science at University of Copenhagen based on an analysis of 130,000 Danish
assignments. They were able to detect with 90% accuracy whether the assignment
was written by its author or by a ghost writer. It is common knowledge that
Danish high school students use online services to prepare assignments but the
Lectio platform used to check plagiarism cannot detect it. The program
Ghostwriter developed by researchers use big data and artificial intelligence
and looks at the writing pattern of the students based on previously submitted
assignments to reach a conclusion.
The AI application may find applications beyond the academic
world and in Police Department where forged documents can be detect. The
program uses a Siamese neural network to distinguish writing styles of two
texts. https://www.science.ku.dk/english/press/news/2019/tempted-to-cheat-on-a-written-exam-artificial-intelligence-is-90-percent-certain-to-nab-you/
