Challenge: Existing methods for learning common sense from text require dozens of hand-annotated frames to connect the property to how it is indirectly reflected in text.
Approach: They propose a method for extracting object-property comparisons from pre-trained embeddings.
Outcome: The proposed approach exceeds previous work but requires less hand-annotated knowledge.
