This paper describes the participation of the Bioingenium Research Group in the ad hoc Medical Image Retrieval task for the 2010 ImageCLEF forum. The work aimed to explore semantic relationships in textual information and transfer into visual information by building a unified image searching index. The proposed strategy is based on the use of Non-Negative Matrix Factorization to decompose matrix data and build latent semantic spaces.
