摘要：

This paper investigates the statistical properties of the shape of Chinese characters (kanji). The authors analyze the shape of kanji using a digital font, and find the power-law relation between the line length and stroke count of kanji. To explain this relation, a simple model based on fractals is introduced. Through the comparison of the data analysis and the model, the authors conclude that the shape of kanji grows in a plane-filling manner as the stroke count increases.
