COMLEX, which has subcategorization classes for various words, as well
as pronunciations, can be used to build a network based on syntactic
behavior or pronunciation.  The ERG lexicon at the Lingo project at
CSLI also has detailed subcategorization information, although for
fewer words.

Beth Levin's work on verb class alternations, is based on the idea of
using syntactic properties to build a semantic net.  Timothy Baldwin
and myself have done some work on clustering Japanese verbs according
to their subcategorization patterns, you can find the relevant papers
on my home-page.

I hope this is of some help,
