Describing Chinese Characters with Recursive Radical Packing Language

Recursive Radical Packing Language (RRPL) is a proposal for a method of describing arbitrary Chinese characters concisely while retaining their structural information. In RRPL, each Chinese character is described as a short string of numbers, symbols, and references to other characters. Since RRPL reduces all Chinese characters to a short string of numbers, their structure can be learned by sequential models such as Markov chains, RNN’s and LSTM’s without much difficulty.
