For example, all animal pairs would be treated as com-patibles, whereas 54% of them are actually incompatible.
compatibility is also central to recognizing entailment (and contradiction): Standard DSMs are of relatively little use in recognizing entailment as they treat antonymous, contradictory words such as dead and alive as highly related (Adel and Schütze, 2014;Mohammad et al., 2013), with catastrophic results for the inferences that can be drawn (antonyms are just the tip of the incompatibility iceberg: dog and cat are not antonyms, but one still contradicts the other).
