前言：

此篇博客用來介紹美國大學生數學建模競賽（MCM/ICM）最後的評判結果（Final Designation: ）的名稱和理由。

Disqualified

• The team’s report was found to be in violation of the contest rules.
• 取消比賽資格-該隊的報告被發現違反了比賽規則。

Disqualified – Plagiarism:

All information, ideas, data, algorithms, etc. from outside sources used by team members must have the original source documented and properly referenced. Our pairwise comparison software identifies papers and/or parts of papers as similar to, or exactly the same as, other papers submitted.
• 解決方案的論文有未註冊的來源，逐字的文本，或從互聯網上提取的信息，和/或非常相似的其他論文提交的法官和/或我們的兩兩比較軟件。團隊成員使用的所有外部來源的信息、想法、數據、算法等都必須有原始來源的文檔記錄和適當的引用。我們的兩兩比較軟件識別論文和/或部分論文與其他論文相似，或完全相同。

Disqualified – Web:

• COMAP identified the solution paper, or portions of the solution paper as shared or posted, or a team member (or members) were found to have received assistance through interactive web sites or electronic media. Posting or sharing all, or any part of the problem statement, your solution, or partial solution anywhere during the contest weekend is strictly prohibited. Obtaining all, or any part, of anyone else’s solution is also prohibited. Contest rules prohibit seeking assistance outside of team members or obtaining help from human sources–in person or via any medium. COMAP continually monitors the Internet during the contest period.
• COMAP將解決方案文件或部分解決方案文件標識爲共享的或發佈的，或者發現某個團隊成員(或多個成員)通過交互式web站點或電子媒體獲得了幫助。在比賽週末期間張貼或分享所有或任何部分的問題陳述，您的解決方案，或部分解決方案是嚴格禁止的。也禁止獲取任何其他人的全部或部分解決方案。競賽規則禁止向團隊成員以外的人尋求幫助，或通過任何媒介尋求人的幫助。COMAP在比賽期間持續監控互聯網。
