Two new cases of true hermaphroditism.

Experiments with Latent Dirichlet Allocation

Latent Dirichlet Allocation is a generative topic model for text. In this report, we implement collapsed Gibbs sampling to learn the topic model. We test our implementation on two data sets: classic400 and Psychological Abstract Review. We also discuss the different evaluation of goodness-of-fit of the models how parameter settings interact with the goodness-of-fit.

Child with True Hermaphroditism

True hermaphrodites possess both ovarian and testicular tissues which may be present in separate gonads or combined in an ovotestis. External and internal genitalia are ambiguous and variable, though a prominent penial structure is usual. Chromosome examination of true hermaphroditism has revealed an XX sex chromosome complement in the majority of cases, but the XY complement and different mosa...

Portuguese-English Experiments using Latent Semantic Indexing

Middlesex University is participating in CLEF for the first time. We have submitted runs for the bilingual task, using Portuguese queries to retrieve English documents. The approach adopted was Latent Semantic Indexing (LSI), which has achieved some promising results in previous experiments using other languages [5,10] and has the great advantage of not requiring expensive resources such as the...
