Title: Semantic Adequacy of Compositional Distributed Representations
Location: Room F1.15, ILLC, Science Park 107, Amsterdam
Supervisor: Jelle Zuidema

I found that we have to be very careful in drawing conclusions, and present some recommendations to better assess the adequacy of the models for this task.
