    <Paragraph position="0"> We presented how to resolve indirect anaphora in Japanese nouns. We need a noun case frame dictionary containing information about noun relations to analyze indirect anaphora, but no such dictionary exists at present. Therefore, we used examples of &amp;quot;X no Y&amp;quot; (Y of X) and a verb case frame dictionary. We estimated indirect anaphora by using this information, and obtained a recall rate of 63% and a precision rate of 68% on test sentences. This indicates  that information about &amp;quot;X no Y&amp;quot; is useful when we cannot make use of a noun case frame dictionary.</Paragraph>
    <Paragraph position="1"> We estimated the results that would be given by a noun case frame dictionary, and obtained recall and precision rates of 71% and 82% respectively. Finally, we proposed a way to construct a noun case frame dictionary by using examples of &amp;quot;X no Y.&amp;quot;</Paragraph>
