Abstract: A hyperfinite $\textup {II}_1$ subfactor may be obtained from a symmetric commuting square via iteration of the basic construction. For certain commuting squares constructed from Hadamard matrices, we describe this subfactor as a group-type inclusion $R^H \subset R \rtimes K$ , where and are finite groups with outer actions on the hyperfinite $\textup {II}_1$ factor . We find the group of outer automorphisms generated by and and use the method of Bisch and Haagerup to determine the principal and dual principal graphs. In some cases a complete classification is obtained by examining the element of $H^3(H \ast K / \textup {Int} R)$ associated with the action.
