Those spiders have algorithms, which tell them what to look for and how to evaluate those SEO attributes. Example: If you have article on your site and someone copies it in the future, spiders will know that is duplicated content and won't give them as much authority in search results.
Penguin and Panda were nothing but algorithm updates, most powerful updates in 8 years. Their focus is to prevent to have spammed sites in top Google search results and to penalize sites which use blackhat SEO techniques.
Panda came first, it is focused on site's content, it searches for poor content, duplicated content, copied content, poorly spun, etc.
