Neural Machine Translation for Mooré, a Low-Resource Language
Hamed Joseph Ouily, Aminata Sabane, Delwende Eliane Birba, Rodrique Kafando, Abdoul Kader Kabore, Tegawende F. Bissyandé
Natural Language Processing (NLP) is a field of artificial intelligence with the goal of enabling machines to understand human language. Neural Machine Translation (NMT) is one of the many applications of NLP and allows for the translation of a source language into a target language. NMT has made significant progress in recent years. However,(...)

MULTIPLICITY OF HETEROCLINIC SOLUTIONS FOR THE DISCRETE p(k)-LAPLACE KIRCHHOFF TYPE EQUATIONS WITH A PARAMETER
Moussa Brahim, Nyanquini Ismaël, Ouaro Stanislas
In this paper, we prove the existence of at least one and at least two nontrivial heteroclinic solutions for the discrete p(k)-Laplace Kirchhoff type equations depending on a parameter. The proof of our main result is based on a local minimum theorem for differentiable functionals due to Ricceri and on the mountain pass theorem of P. Pucci and(...)

Monitoring the Air-fuel Ratio (AFR) of a Biomass Gasification Process with an Arduino Uno 3 and a Narrow Band Lambda Oxygen Sensor
Hamidou Salou a*, Nzihou Jean Fidele b , Zoundi Ousmane b , Ouattara Frederic b and Segda Bila Gerard c
The Air-Fuel Ratio is one of the keys parameters for driving the gasification process. Monitoring of oxygen percentage in flue gases is one of various ways of controlling efficiency and emissions of industrial combustion. Biomass gasification is a thermochemical degradation of the biomass that is accomplished with the Air-Fuel Ratio less than(...)
