8. Conclusion
</SectionTitle>
    <Paragraph position="0"> Syllable-based formalism is proposed to solve the problem of morphological alternation with morpheme isolation where many candidates are generated by tile phonological rules. It improved the worst--time complexity O(n) to a constant, and tim nulnber of dictionary accesses is highly reduced using tile syllable features that are extracted froin words and formalized to be available for a morphological analyzer. They are very useftfl for the isolation of morphemes, which make it possible to guess the boundary position of a stem without accessing the dictionary. They are also useful to reject the implausible base forms from a w~rb.</Paragraph>
    <Paragraph position="1"> Charaeterislic set of syllables and syllable-lmsed formalism may be applied for lhe languages whose words consists of syllables and morphological operation is described as a syllable- to-syllable transformation to increase tile performance of tile morphological analyzer. In addition, idiosynchratic features of syllable may be used for the analysis and recognition of imturnl languago.s such as spelling check, phonological representation of words, and character recognition.</Paragraph>
    <Paragraph position="2"> Korean morphological analyzer was implemented at IBM-PC 486 tlsing C language. The system analyzed Korean text at a speed of about 100 words/sec.</Paragraph>
