Sweet stalk sorghum is grown in Burkina Faso primarily for its grain, forage, and sugar-rich stalks. However, its productivity is heavily reliant on rainfall, and the variability in annual precipitation significantly limits its contribution to household food security. In this context, identifying droughttolerant genotypes with stable performan(...)

Crank–Nicolson Method for the Advection-Diffusion EquationInvolving a Fractional Laplace Operator
Martin Nitiema , Thomas Tindano , Windjiré Some
We consider an advection-diffusion equation involving a fractional Laplace operator of order s 2 0; 1\f1=2g:. Using a combination of fractional left and right Riemann–Liouville derivatives of order 2s to approximate the fractional Laplace operator, we construct a numerical scheme using the Crank–Nicolson method. Using the Crank–Nicolson sche(...)

Asymptotic convergence of the extremes of a geometric random variables sequence
Frédéric Béré, Caleb-Rodolphe Bazié and Vini Yves Bernadin Loyara
In this paper, we give some contributions to the analysis of the behavior of the extremes of a category of random variables (r.v.) of geometric type. First, we exhibit a subsequence making certain r.v. of integer part converge. Then we prove the convergence in law of extremes of a sequence of geometric type r.v. Finally, we prove the mean conv(...)

Effects of Fertilizer and Soil Type on the Agro-Morphological Parameters of the Sorghum-Cowpea System in the Semi-Arid Zone of Burkina Faso
Aminata Ganeme, Safiatou Sanna, Daouda Guébré, Harouna Ouédraogo, Adama Ilboudo and Edmond Hien
Degradation of cultivated soils limits agricultural productivity and soil fertility. In Burkina Faso, the effect of soil type variability on cropping systems remains poorly documented, deserving further investigation. This study tests the effect of soil variability on sorghum-cowpea cropping system agronomic performance, with and without NPK f(...)

Evaluation of the Agronomic Performance of Cyperus Esculentus L. Genotypes Grown in West Africa
Nogueba Abraham KOMBELEME, Koussao SOME, Jaques OUEDRAOGO, Armel ROUAMBA2, Pauline BATIONO/KANDO
Tiger nut (Cyperus esculentus L.) is a cash crop that is very rich in nutrients. Knowledge of the agronomic performance of genotypes cultivated for broad adaptation in growing environments is necessary. The objective of this study was to identify high-performance genotypes in Burkina Faso. Thus, 42 genotypes were evaluated using an Alpha Latti(...)

Deep learning models for binary ddos attack detection in enterprise environments
Yacouba OUATTARA Yaya TRAORE Yves SAVADOGO
This paper proposes an experimental methodology
based on the comparison of several deep learning models for the
detection of distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks in
enterprise network environments. The CIC-DDoS2019 dataset,
recognized for the richness and realism of its attack scenarios,
served as a basis for the preparation, trai(...)

A two dimensional nonlinear space time mathematical analysis of fish and zooplankton dynamics considering the fishing effects in the ecosystem
Wendkouni Ouedraogo, Hamidou Ouedraogo, Ousmane Koutou, Boureima Sangare
We consider a reaction-diffusion model with homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions to describe fish and zooplankton dynamics. We also introduce two important elements: fishing and cannibalism effect in the dynamics using a non linear functional responses. In the mathematical analysis, global attractor, persistence conditions and the stability(...)

Determination of the optimal operating distance of a solar PV module under the influence of the electromagnetic field

The effect of an electromagnetic field (EMF) on the various electrical parameters of a photovoltaic (PV) solar cell or PV module is not uniform. A high intensity or proximity to an electromagnetic field increases the photoelectric current, while the photovoltage has the opposite effect. Thus, for certain electrical parameters, the EMF can be c(...)

Introduction:
Child malnutrition remains a major public health threat in sub-Saharan Africa and is reported to be associated with
half of child deaths in Burkina Faso. The World Health Organization recommends exclusive breastfeeding (EBF) as a major
intervention to improve overall child nutritional status and survival for the first 6 month(...)
