All manuscripts submitted to the Journal of Electrical Engineering and Informatics (JEEI) are subject to a plagiarism screening process to ensure originality and academic integrity prior to publication.
Plagiarism checking is conducted at the initial screening stage, before the manuscript is forwarded to the peer review process.
JEEI uses reputable plagiarism detection software to screen submitted manuscripts, such as:
Turnitin
iThenticate
or equivalent plagiarism detection tools
Manuscripts submitted to JEEI must comply with the following similarity limits:
Overall similarity index: ≤ 20%
Single-source similarity: ≤ 5%
Manuscripts exceeding these limits will not proceed to the peer review stage.
Based on the plagiarism screening results, one of the following actions will be taken:
Proceed to peer review, if similarity is within acceptable limits
Returned to authors for revision, if minor similarity issues are detected
Rejected, if plagiarism or excessive similarity is identified
Authors are responsible for ensuring that their manuscripts are original and properly cited. Submission of a manuscript implies that the authors agree to comply with the plagiarism standards applied by JEEI.
