The focus of duplicate checking is naturally the main content of the paper, so the main content of duplicate checking is the main content of the paper, followed by abstract, keywords, introduction and appendix. Some periodical agencies in colleges and universities clearly stipulate which parts of the paper to check, or will stipulate which parts to check. You can check the duplicate according to the regulations of your school or the requirements of your journal, and you can contact the staff of these related units to find out.
HowNet generally checks the paragraphs and chapters of the papers submitted by everyone according to the catalogue and format of the papers. Now, with the upgrading of technology, HowNet's paper checking system can also identify and compare the pictures, tables, mathematical formulas, programming language codes and other contents in the text of the papers, but it is not accurate and is still being gradually improved.
