we prove that the class of profinite groups $g$ that have a factorization $g=ab$‎ ‎with $a$ and $b$ abelian closed subgroups‎, ‎is closed under taking inverse limits‎ ‎of surjective inverse systems‎. ‎this is a generalization of a recent result by k. h. hofmann and f. g. russo‎. ‎as an application we reprove their generalization of iwasawa's structure theorem for‎ ‎quasihamiltonian pro-$p$...

Topic models jointly learn topics and document-level topic distribution. Extrinsic evaluation of topic models tends to focus exclusively on topic-level evaluation, e.g. by assessing the coherence of topics. We demonstrate that there can be large discrepancies between topicand documentlevel model quality, and that basing model evaluation on topic-level analysis can be highly misleading. We propo...

Radiologists have thus been increasingly charged by new duties and liabilities, exposing them to higher risks of legal claims made against them. Malpractice lawsuits in radiology are commonly related to inappropriate medical care or to the poor...

Their results show that no significant difference was found between group members’ comprehension of contributed comments and their stated minimum acceptable understanding. However, comprehension of relevant comments was higher than that for off-topic text, indicating that the sharing of important information wa...
