the first-pass strategy for this is based on comparison of the most important syllable components: the initial consonant, and the rime (medial vowel and final consonant). we will need a scoring matrix that can convert the components used in baxter's transcription system into single characters, so that each match is scored based on the the individual component scores. we will want to pad missing components with the zero (∅) so that syllables align.
