Jun Da - Chinese text computing

Welcome! This website provides character frequency lists generated from 110 megabytes of Chinese text corpus. It also provides bigram lists as well as mutual information statistics generated from two sub-corpra. More work is underway that studies concordance and collocation (e.g., bigrams and trigrams) of individual Chinese characters using such statistics as mutual information, likelihood ratio, chi-square measures and HMM probabilities, etc.. Statistical results will be posted as they become available. The materials presented here are related to my research on automatic word/phrase identification and acquisition.
