Is it academic misconduct that invention patents are too repetitive?
Not necessarily. According to relevant information, it depends on the structure and content of the paper. If the repetition rate of a paper exceeds 60% and many sentences are completely copied from other people's papers, then such papers can be characterized as absolute plagiarism. If a paper is similar to other papers only in terms of references and some sentences, it cannot be characterized as plagiarism. It can only be said that the author's literature sources in the references are consistent with those of other authors, and this paper cannot be characterized as plagiarism.
