In this paper we have proposed the sign language transformation system for deaf based on a morpheme analysis. The proposed system extracts phoneme components and connection informations of the input character sequence by using a morpheme analysis. And then the sign image obtained by component analysis is correctly and automatically generated through the sign image database. For the effective sign language transformation, the language description dictionary which consists of a morpheme analysis part for analysis of input character sequence and sign language description part for reference of sign language pattern is costructed. To avoid the duplicating sign language pattern, the pattern is classified a basic, a compound and a similar sign word. The computer simulation shows the usefulness of the proposed system.
