摘要
基于汉语4个不同时期:古代汉语、魏晋南北朝的汉语、近代汉语以及现代汉语的散文,文中建立了字同现网络,并研究了它们的统计特征.研究发现99.6%的网络具有无标度特性,95.0%的网络具有小世界特性.该研究从复杂网络的角度揭示了汉语语言的发展不是平稳的,同时还揭示了不同时期中文文章的异同.在汉语语言学的研究中,对魏晋南北朝时期的文学是属于古代汉语还是近代汉语一直存在很大的争议.研究结果表明,魏晋南北朝时期网络的统计数据与其他时期的统计数据之间的确存在明显的不同,且魏晋南北朝时期的文学属于近代汉语似乎更合理.
Co-occurrence networks of Chinese characters are constructed from collections of essays in different periods of China: the ancient Chinese language, the Chinese language in Wei, Jin, and Southern-Northern Dynasties, the recent Chinese language, and the modern Chinese language, and their statistical parameters are studied. It has been found that 99.6% networks have the scale-free feature and 95.0% networks have the small-world effect. This study reveals some commonalities and differences among articles in different periods of China from a complex network perspective. There has been a controversial question as to whether the literatures in Wei, Jin, and Southern-Northern Dynasties should belong to the ancient Chinese language or the recent Chinese language in the linguistic study. Our work shows that the statistical parameters of networks in Wei, Jin, and Southern-Northern Dynasties are clearly different from those of networks in the other periods of China, and it seems more reasonable that the literatures in Wei, Jin, and Southern-Northern Dynasties belong to the recent Chinese language.
