Les patronymes cultuels comme éléments du patrimoine identitaire chez les Puguli au Burkina Faso
Biauké Fulgence NOUMA
Dans la société pougouli le nom désigne à la fois l’unicité et la pluralité du ‘’moi’’ ; le ‘’moi’’ diachronique qui est le processus d’hominisation qui consiste à la formation de l’Être, de la période de grossesse à la naissance. Et le ‘’moi’’ synchronique correspond au processus de don de nom (baptême). La particularité dans cette société es(...)

Optimal control analysis of a mathematical model of malaria and COVID-19 co-infection dynamics
Abou Bakari Diabaté, Boureima Sangaré, Ousmane Koutou
In this paper, we analyze a deterministic model of malaria and Corona Virus Disease 2019 co-infection within a homogeneous population. We first studied the single infection model of each disease and then the co-infection dynamics. We calculate the basic reproduction number of each model and study the existence and stability of the steady state(...)

Network Optimization for Data Flow Control in a Security-Challenged Country: The Case of Burkina Faso
Yamba Dabone, Pengwendé Zongo & Tounwendyam Frédéric Ouedraogo
The Internet plays a crucial role in everything these days—economic development, education, and civic engagement—but it is also exploited by cybercriminals and terrorists, particularly via propaganda on social networks. In Burkina, where the terrorist threat has been present since 2016, cyber-activists sometimes relay unverified information, w(...)

Agrophysiology and productivity of maize and sorghum in response to pedoclimatic factors in agroforestry parkland systems in Burkina Faso
Vigiles Ade-Bayo Ahamadah, Abraham Sotongo Ouédraogo, Paulin Bazié, Pepin Patrice Some, Badoua Fidel Badiel, Hugues Roméo Bazié and Gérard Zombré
Numerous production factors influence crop productivity, though their contributions are not equally significant. This ecophysiological work evaluated the impact of soil and climate factors on the physiological functions that influence the productivity of maize and sorghum on ten plots of 400 m² in agroforestry parklands located in the central-(...)

Sustainable Management of the Loumbila Dam Water Resource in Burkina Faso for Market Gardening: Diagnostic and Prospects, a Case Study
Yacouba Sanou, François Sawadogo
Nowadays, water resources face huge prob-lems such as climatic variability, natural disasters and human activities. Thus, demo-graphic growth not only leads to strong pres-sure on water resources but also conflicts of use and problems of water management in order to produce vegetables. This work aims to assess strengthen the participatory and(...)

Background: In Burkina Faso, traditional medicine remains a key component of primary healthcare, particularly for malaria
management. This study aimed to identify plant species with antimalarial and mosquito-repellent properties used in the
Centre and Hauts-Bassins regions, to guide future pharmacological investigations.
Methods: From Septe(...)

Literature review on classification model for human skin disease
T. Ferdinand Guinko, B. Tanguy Kaboré
The rising global burden of skin diseases requires precise and efficient diagnostic tools to improve patient care and treatment outcomes. Recent advances in artificial intelligence, particularly deep learning, have significantly contributed to the automation of the classification of skin diseases. This review presents a detailed analysis of va(...)

Cassava mosaic disease in Burkina Faso: epidemiological aspects and disease management perspectives
Seydou Sawadogo, Fidèle Tiendrébéogo, Ezechiel B Tibiri, Florencia Djigma, Lassina Traoré, Justin S Pita, Angela O Eni
Cassava Mosaic Disease (CMD) is the main biotic constraint to cassava production in West Africa. In Burkina Faso, efforts are underway to manage it sustainably using classical surveillance, including field monitoring and laboratory diagnosis. However, this method has significant limitations that make it difficult to address early management. T(...)

Deep Learning Approach for Optimized DDoS Detection in SDN
Rolph Abraham Yao, Ferdinand Tonguim Guinko
The rise of Software-Defined Network (SDN) offers great flexibility in network infrastructure management. However, this flexibility also introduces critical security challenges, in particular vulnerability to Distributed Denial of Service attacks (DDoS). Traditional detection methods are often ineffective in the face of evolving attack strateg(...)

Identification and Full-Genome Characterisation of Genomoviruses in Cassava Leaves Infected with Cassava Mosaic Disease
Olabode Onile-Ere, Oluwagboadurami John, Oreoluwa Sonowo, Pakyendou Estel Name, Ezechiel Bionimian Tibiri, Fidèle Tiendrébéogo, Justin Pita, Solomon Oranusi, Angela O Eni
This study identified and characterised three Genomoviruses during a circular DNA-enriched sequencing project aimed at assessing the evolution of Cassava mosaic begomoviruses in Nigeria. Using a combination of rolling circle amplification, Oxford Nanopore Sequencing and targeted amplicon sequencing, three full-length Genomovirus genomes were r(...)

Optimizing Real-Time Video Analytics for Resource-Constrained Environments
Rodrique Kafando, Aminata Sabané, Tegawendé F. Bissyandé
Developing countries face a growing demand for video analytics, yet often lack sufficient computational resources. This paper addresses this challenge by proposing and evaluating optimization techniques for efficient video stream processing on resource-constrained devices, including edge systems. We introduce and evaluate several techniques, i(...)

Detection of Malicious Android Applications Based on Verification of Indicators of Compromise and Machine Learning Techniques
Theodore Dama, Aminata Sabané, Abdoul Kader Kaboré, Tegawendé F. Bissyandé
Android is the operating system with the largest share of the global smartphone market. The system’s popularity makes it an attractive target for malware because of its users’ data. Despite the security measures used by Google and certain researchers to combat malicious applications, some still slip through the net. In this article, we propose(...)

Text Mining for Thematic Keyword Extraction: Enriching a French Lexicon on Food Security
Rabiatou Zampaligre, Aminata Sabané, Rodrique Kafando, Abdoul Kader Kaboré, Tegawendé F. Bissyandé
Food security is a major concern in many countries in West Africa, particularly Burkina Faso. Early warning systems for food security and famines rely primarily on numerical data for analysis, while textual data, which is more complex to process, is seldom used. In this paper, we propose a textual analysis approach using text mining techniques(...)
