How to Interpret the Similarity Score
Similarity reports summarize matching or highly similar text in submitted papers. A similarity score percentage will be displayed when a similarity report is available.
The range of percentages is between 0% to 100%. According to the amount of matching or similar text in the paper, the color of the report icon indicates the similarity score. A grayed-out icon in the similarity column indicates that no report has been generated.
The color icon indication:
| Blue | The blue color indicates that no text was matched. |
| Green | The green color indicates the most common matches, between 1% and 24%. |
| Yellow | Yellow matches text above 25-49%. |
| Orange | Orange matches text above 50-74%. |
| Red | Red matches text above 75-100%. |
