The authors’ method estimates perceived gender associations for Chinese names by predicting scores from Hanzi and, when only Pinyin is available, aggregating predictions across plausible Hanzi variants. On 34 held-out Hanzi names, it achieves R² of 0.85 and RMSE of 0.09, versus Claude’s 0.75 and 0.12. Pinyin results are weaker, reflecting ambiguity and this sample’s limits.
