4 CONCLUSIONS
</SectionTitle>
    <Paragraph position="0"> We have presented a simph', algorithm which allows a set of distributed lexical semantir representations to be constructed from nouns in the Princeton WordNet.</Paragraph>
    <Paragraph position="1"> '\['he results show that the method works and produces good results. The main reason for this is the explicit taxonomic information in WordNet which has to be inferred in other dictionaries. Incorrect taxonomic information seriously degrades the pex\[brrnanee of this Idml of method. On the other hand errors in individual features arc not so harmful as they have. no knock on effects. Ilowever, we are engaged in eliminating errors in word sense and syntactic category which are the princilml sources of inaccuracy in the method. In addi|;ion we a.re working on objective methods for nw.asl,ring the perfornmnce of the lexicon on a large scale.</Paragraph>
