In this paper, we propose a method for exploring the Japanese construction N1-Adj-N2, which often establishes a relationship between an object (N2), an attribute (N1), and an evaluation of that attribute (Adj). As this construction connects two nouns, our method involves constructing a graph of the noun relations, which can be considered as representing selectional restrictions for the argument of a target adjective. The exploration of N1-Adj-N2 constructions is useful for opinion mining, lexicographical analysis of adjectives, and writing aid, among others.
