数理统计方法在汉字规范中的应用

Statistical Methods in Chinese Character Standardization

常用字字量问题是汉字规范首先要解决的问题之一。本文探讨在不同条件下确定的不同字表,是否可以用统计学的假设检验方法,对这些字表的出现概率进行比较,以字表在实际应用中概率的高低来评价其应用效果的大小。经过实际运算,得出了调整后的《规范汉字表》常用字表在应用中的概率高于原3500常用字表的结论。由此证明《规范汉字表》确定的常用字表是合理的、优化的。

One of the first issues in Chinese character standardization is the number of the frequently used characters. This research compared the incidence of the common characters in the Table of Standardized Chinese Characters with the incidence of the original Table of Common Characters statistically. The research indicates that the former is observably higher than the latter. Therefore we conclude that the confirmed common characters in the Table of Standardized Chinese Characters are better and optimized.
