Description This paper describes approaches used for the Plagiarism Detection task in PAN 2013 international competition on uncovering plagiarism, authorship, and social software misuse. We present modified three-way search methodology for Source Retrieval subtask and analyse snippet similarity performance. The results show, that presented approach is adaptable in real-world plagiarism situations. For the Detailed Comparison task, we discuss feature type selection and global postprocessing. Resulting performance is significantly better with the described modifications, and further improvement is still possible.
