Chapter 477: 0477 Ryan Henderson_1

The Lonely Genius, originally named Ryan Henderson, was a 14-year-old prodigy.

Since childhood, he had been interested in the field of Artificial Intelligence, studying relevant computer majors. Later, when the Artificial Intelligence subject was officially launched and promoted, he switched his major and continued to study diligently.

He had compared the things they discussed on the forum with Ellen Young and felt that there was a great potential for experimentation.

But he never expected that a casual search for similar news would yield such a surprise.

He wasn’t afraid when his fans leaked his information; what he didn’t expect was that Theodore Hailey became desperate that night. The message coming from the Andalu side was that Theodore Hailey adamantly claimed his work was original.

Ryan Henderson didn’t bother arguing with him, simply sending the theories they had originally discussed directly to Andalu’s official blog via private message.

Until that evening, no other information had come out.

Ryan Henderson wasn’t in a hurry; instead, he became interested in Theodore Hailey. As a computer science student himself, though with a different focus, he found commonalities. Upon investigating the theses that Theodore Hailey presented and won awards for at Andalu, he indeed discovered something interesting.

With nothing better to do, he sent all this information to Ellen Young.

After reading it, Ellen was somewhat surprised.

Theodore Hailey’s theses seemed normal at first glance, but Ryan Henderson also had exceptional abilities. He threw out an answer to Ellen after his analysis and comparison: "I think the style of the award-winning theses previously written by Theodore Hailey seems a bit inconsistent, not like the work of a single person. I suspect these theses may not be clean either, but I’ve not found any original texts online."

Ryan Henderson was a man of action and had quickly investigated Theodore Hailey’s previous theses. Through analysis and comparison, he felt there was an issue.

Ellen looked over them carefully as well.

She wasn’t interested in Theodore Hailey; rather, if what Ryan Henderson suspected was true, then the nature of this matter would be more serious than the current theory borrowing incident.

This was illegal.

Of course, it was also possible that they were mistaken, and Theodore Hailey was indeed genuine.

If they were right, but couldn’t find the original versions of the theses online, there was only one possibility — Theodore Hailey had bought his earlier theses.

It was difficult for the average person to detect similarities in these specialized theses, because if they were identical that would mean unequivocal plagiarism. However, in a body of specialized data-driven theses, the similar elements you see are the data. Why would Ryan Henderson mention the style being similar?

It’s because there are subtle deviations in the writing techniques of these theses.

It’s almost impossible for the average person to detect this difference, but after looking over several, Ellen could sense the inconsistency.

The choice of words and phrasing, including the use of punctuation, were habitually different in each thesis. If they were truly written by one person, these kinds of differences shouldn’t exist.

Ellen thought for a moment, then also searched Theodore Hailey’s regular academic papers for comparison.

Ordinary people wouldn’t be able to access such deep information, but she was different. She was a distinguished professor at Andalu, with the highest level of access, allowing her to easily investigate any student’s information by logging into her account on Andalu’s official website.

Comparing Theodore Hailey’s regular submissions and his published theses, Ellen, with her professionalism, judged — these theses were written by different people.
