Deregulation of cell growth and apoptosis in UV-induced melanomagenesis by Ouhtit A.

“…More interestingly, p16 mutant cells increased their resistance to apoptosis at high UVB-dose, associated with decreased Bax and increased Bcl2 expression. Thus, mutant-p16 appears to dictate a deregulation of cell cycle and increased resistance to apoptosis in melanoma cells. …”

A kernelized sparsity-based approach for best spectral bands selection for face recognition by Bouchech, H.J.

“…A twofold contribution is proposed: First, the robustness of four state-of-the-art algorithms, namely Multi-block Local Binary Pattern (MBLBP), Histogram of Gabor Phase Patterns (HGPP), Local Gabor Binary Pattern Histogram Sequence (LGBPHS) and Patterns of Oriented Edge Magnitudes (POEM-WPCA) against high illumination variation is studied. Second, we propose to enhance the performance of the four mentioned algorithms, which has been drastically decreased upon the day lighted face images provided by IRIS-M3 face database. …”
