When the user compares the original document to several documents, if the similarity value of the document is 1, then the contents present in the original document is 100% same in the compared documents, i.e., fully plagiarized. If the similarity value varies from 0.1 to 0.9, then it is partially plagiarized. The similarity value is 0%, then the original document is unique
