Plagiarism Policy
Plagiarism Policy
Quantum Pulse: Journal of AI, Data Science & Systems Engineering (QP-AIDSE) follows a strict approach to plagiarism detection. All submitted manuscripts are carefully examined using advanced software (such as Turnitin) to compare content with a broad database of sources for similarity. The editorial team ensures proper citation, originality, and coherence. Authors are required to declare the originality of their work and provide proper source attribution, upholding the journal’s commitment to academic integrity.
Authors must acknowledge their awareness of the journal’s plagiarism and copyright policies when signing the copyright transfer agreement. Manuscripts are reviewed under the condition that any unpublished data is properly credited and permission has been obtained where necessary. This policy applies to all submissions to Quantum Pulse.
Plagiarism includes copying ideas, text, data, and other creative work, such as tables and figures, and presenting them as original without proper citation. Authors are responsible for ensuring that reused material, even if cited correctly, is appropriately authorized by the copyright holder. Plagiarism also extends to presenting others’ ideas in a new form, even if rephrased, and requires clear citation.
Authors must properly attribute any ideas or material from prior work, even if the journal employs double-blind review. If citing their own previous work, authors must include “blinded” citations to maintain the integrity of the review process. If a manuscript is under review elsewhere, authors must notify the editor of that journal to avoid parallel publication.
The ultimate goal of this policy is transparency, ensuring that the editorial staff understands what is original and what is derived from prior work. If there is any uncertainty about proper citation, authors should clarify the situation in a cover letter to the editor.
For scientific papers/articles – 85% or more originality is required
For non-scientific, language, literature, humanities, etc. papers/articles – 80% or more originality is required
AI Generated Content Policy
Quantum Pulse: Journal of AI, Data Science & Systems Engineering (QP-AIDSE) permits limited use of AI-generated content under strict guidelines.
- Text and content similarity between 10% to 20% will be allowed only with proper citation and referencing in the paper/article (if cited from any matched source).
- Authors must ensure that any AI-assisted or AI-generated text is clearly acknowledged, cited appropriately, and does not compromise the originality of the manuscript.
- Complete reliance on AI tools for generating full manuscripts is not acceptable. Authors remain fully responsible for the authenticity, validity, and integrity of their submitted work.
