COPULA OF BERNSTEIN AND DEGREE OF DISCORDANCE
Vini Yves Bernadin LOYARA, Fabrice OUOBA et Rémi Guillaume BAGRE
The analytical expression for the degree of multivariate discordance in probability has a high level of mathematical elegance. This is why we were interested in the degree of discrepancy. In addition, while working on this expression, an application to the Bernstein copula appeared more accessible. We therefore modeled the expression for the B(...)

Quand le pied de la nécessité de l'histoire fait un pas de géant en Afrique
SANGARE Noumoutiè
L’Afrique connais une effervescence politique ces dernières années dont les catalyseurs sont en majorité les couches sociales jusque-là mises à l’écart du champ politique.

La misère est un des phénomènes qui engendre d’autres plus exécrables dont les
romanciers s’inspirent pour dresser la trame de leurs récits. L’étude approfondie de ces faits
sociaux accuse la dichotomie dans les relations interclasses. En effet, les victimes et les
bourreaux s’exploitent mutuellement pour l’atteinte de leurs objecti(...)

Optimal Sizing of Output Energy of PV Power Plants under Extreme Climate Conditions: Case of Sudanian Sahel
Boubacar SORO, Amadou DIALLO, Serge Dimitri Y. B. BAZYOMO, Adama OUEDRAOGO, Seyni SALACK; Dieudonné Joseph BATHIEBO, Sié KAM
The present work analyzes the energy production of three 50kWp photovoltaic (PV) power plants which are placed in three climate zones. The Sudano-Sahelian and Sudanian climates have lower average temperatures than the Sahelian environment. The Sudanian climate, next the Sudano-Sahelian zone, and finally the Sahelian region, have the best perfo(...)

Contraceptive trajectories and women's years of employment activity in low-income countries: combining fictive cohorts, contraceptive calendar data and sequence analysis
Zan L. M, Rossier C, Studer M., Dao O., Guiella G.
Historically, family planning (FP) programs in low-income countries (LICs) have been valued for their benefits to child and maternal health. Today, there is a focus on integrating contraceptive access into women’s rights. However, measuring the impact of FP on women’s economic empowerment remains challenging due to a lack of comprehensive long(...)

Recent dengue outbreaks have occurred in Ouagadougou and Bobo-Dioulasso, the two major cities of Burkina Faso. Dengue is a viral disease transmitted primarily by Aedes aegypti, a highly anthropophilic mosquito that thrives in human-transformed environments and breeds predominantly in artificial containers. In 2018, we investigated the resting(...)
