This paper presents an unsupervised method for deriving inference axioms by composing semantic relations. The method is indepen- dent of any particular relation inventory. It relies on describing semantic relations using primitives and manipulating these primitives according to an algebra. The method was tested using a set of eight semantic relations yielding 78 inference axioms which were eval- uated over PropBank.
