Subjects: AGHIEN lagoon, GR6J model, Water balance, Abidjan city, Côte d’Ivoire.

description: AGHIEN lagoon, a freshwater on the periphery of Abidjan city, was selected under the Renovated Partnership for Research at the Development Department of Côte d'Ivoire (PReSeD-CI), to overcome a serious problem of drinking water needs, which the megalopolis has been facing for nearly two decades. For a better understanding of the functioning of this lagoon, we set ourselves the general objective of evaluating the resource. More specifically in this article, the aim was to assess the water balance in the BETE sub-basin, the main tributary of the lagoon with a hydrological model. To achieve this, an extensive hydroclimatic data measurement network has been deployed on the lagoon watershed since 2015. The modeling was carried out using the daily data for the period 2015-2017 under the model GR6J (Rural Engineering at 6 parameters at the time step Daily). The calibration and validation of it gave satisfactory values of Nash respectively of 75% and 74%. The characterization of the main components of the water cycle over the period 2016-2017 for an average annual rainfall of 2472 mm, has given: a proportion of the flow equivalent to 50%; that of evapotranspiration is evaluated at 40% while infiltration represents 10%. These preliminary results made it possible to understand that nearly half of the precipitation of the BETE basin would flow towards the Aghien lagoon.

description: Recent progress in machine learning (ML) has made high-accuracy quantum chemistry (QC) calculations more accessible. Of particular interest are multifidelity machine learning (MFML) methods where training data from differing accuracies or fidelities are used. These methods usually employ a fixed scaling factor, $γ$, to relate the number of training samples across different fidelities, which reflects the cost and assumed sparsity of the data. This study investigates the impact of modifying $γ$ on model efficiency and accuracy for the prediction of vertical excitation energies using the QeMFi benchmark dataset. Further, this work introduces QC compute time informed scaling factors, denoted as $θ$, that vary based on QC compute times at different fidelities. A novel error metric, error contours of MFML, is proposed to provide a comprehensive view of model error contributions from each fidelity. The results indicate that high model accuracy can be achieved with just 2 training samples at the target fidelity when a larger number of samples from lower fidelities are used. This is further illustrated through a novel concept, the $Γ$-curve, which compares model error against the time-cost of generating training samples, demonstrating that multifidelity models can achieve high accuracy while minimizing training data costs.

description: This paper studied the simultaneous evolutions of re-greening and soil degradation in the West of Niger between 1998 and 2017. It relied on in situ and cartographic observations to analyze the indices of vegetation and environmental degradation in cultivated and in a classified area (devoid of anthropogenic actions). In the classified area, the results show a tendency towards re-greening with a progression of at least 500% of vegetation index. In cultivated areas, on the other hand, the localized observations reveal two tendencies, one coherent showing the re-greening and the decrease of the degradation and the other paradoxical showing the re-greening and the extension of the degraded soils. The latter can be explained by the memory effect of the droughts of the years 1970-1990 but also by the way of resources management. Overall, we conclude on the trend towards re-greening and highlighting the resilience of the ecosystems studied to climate shock.

description: In industrial applications like online advertising and recommendation systems, diverse and accurate user profiles can greatly help improve personalization. Deep learning is widely applied to mine expressive tags to users from their historical interactions in the system, e.g., click, conversion action in the advertising chain. The usual approach is to take a certain action as the objective, and introduce multiple independent Two-Tower models to predict the possibility of users' action on tags (known as CTR or CVR prediction). The predicted users' high probably attractive tags are to represent their preferences. However, the single-action models cannot learn complementarily and support effective training on data-sparse actions. Besides, limited by the lack of information fusion between the two towers, the model learns insufficiently to represent users' preferences on various tag \textbf{topics} well. This paper introduces a novel multi-task model called Mixture of Virtual-Kernel Experts (MVKE) to learn user preferences on various actions and topics unitedly. In MVKE, we propose a concept of Virtual-Kernel Expert, which focuses on modeling one particular facet of the user's preferences, and all of them learn coordinately. Besides, the gate-based structure used in MVKE builds an information fusion bridge between two towers, improving the model's capability and maintaining high efficiency. We apply the model in Tencent Advertising System, where both online and offline evaluations show that our method has a significant improvement compared with the existing ones and brings about an obvious lift to actual advertising revenue.

description: BackgroundCaesarean rates have doubled in 15 years, increasing 4% annually with disastrous public health consequences from associated maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality. A policy adjustment favouring second cycle Prostaglandin inductions could reduce these rates. Although research studies support this proposal, efficacy and safety data are limited. A review of the efficacy and safety of Prostaglandin induction between 2020-2022 was proposed. MethodsAn electronic patient record review of Al Wakra Hospital labour inductions, maternal and perinatal outcomes in women who required a second cycle of Prostaglandin induction was conducted. Outcome data obtained in this cohort included parity, successful labour induction, mode of delivery, and significant maternal and neonatal morbidity. ResultsThere were 1,707 labour inductions during the two-year audit period, 790 were Prostaglandin inductions, 100 requiring a second induction cycle. Among primiparae, 44% had a vaginal delivery while 56% had a Caesarean section. 75% of multiparae had a vaginal delivery with 25% needing Caesarean section. The risk of Caesarean was higher among primiparae compared to multiparae (Figure 1). Postpartum haemorrhage occurred in 12 %, and postpartum pyrexia in 28%, 13% of whom had a positive blood culture result to various organisms. Notably, 87% of newborns had a 5-minute Apgar ≥ 9, and no cases were reported with a 5-minute Apgar score below 7. Maternal and neonatal morbidity did not increase compared to baseline unit data, and 50% of the women achieved a vaginal delivery, reducing the number of Caesarean sections.ConclusionThe use of a second cycle of vaginal Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2 ) for induction of labour was effective and safe as reflected by the absence of birth asphyxia, and low rates of comparable times to delivery without significant complications (Figure 2). Randomized controlled trials are needed to identify ideal dosage regimens from a clinical and cost?effectiveness perspective.
Energetic valorization of olive waste water (liquid waste) by methanic fermentation in north of Morocco

Subjects: Biogas, organic waste, breeding, energy, anaerobic digestion, fertilization, Olive.

description: In this study, we present an innovative solution that allows to avoid pollution and to take advantage of olive waste water and similar industrial effluents. Indeed, the valorization of vegetable water allows by fermentation to recover the methane as renewable energy, and the remaining digestate which is an excellent fertilizer for the agricultural amendment. But the raw vegetable water is not fermentable; it is codigestion with other substrates that allows a good fermentation in particular conditions, including in particular, anaerobiosis, constant temperature and a suitable microbial inoculum. The balance of this valuation is positive from an economic and environmental (reduction of greenhouse gases). The application of this solution and its adaptation to the Moroccan context deserves to be encouraged with the help of investors and project leaders in the field of recovery of organic waste (liquids and solids). Our study shows a biogas potential of more than 150 litter biogas per m3 of raw vegetable water with an energy equivalent of 6 kWh/m3 of biogas.

Subjects: Neonatal mortality, Risk factors, Retrospective study.

description: The objective of this study was to determine the rate of neonatal mortality and to identify risk factors for neonatal death. This retrospective study has been conducted by using all of the 252 files of new-borns who died between 0 and 28 days at Pagnon Mother-Child Hospital in Meknes (Morocco) in 2016. The data collection was carried out using an exploitation sheet. The neonatal mortality rate was 19%. Prematurity was the most important risk factor for death. Early neonatal mortality is common among females. The vaginal way, maternal age between 20 and 35 years was the main maternal factors. Improving this situation requires women's education, seminar reinforcement and continuous training of midwives, doctors and nurses. Encouraging research on neonatal mortality is also essential.

description: The tensor-polarized structures of the deuteron can be probed through the proton-deuteron Drell-Yan process, where the proton is unpolarized and the deuteron is tensor polarized. This measurement will be conducted at Fermilab in the near future. In this reaction, the twist-3 contribution is not negligible compared to the twist-2 contribution due to the limited invariant mass of the dilepton pair. We calculate the twist-3 contribution for the Drell-Yan cross section with a tensor-polarized deuteron target, preserving the U(1)-gauge invariance of the hadronic tensor. The cross sections and weighted cross sections are expressed in terms of the tensor-polarized parton distribution functions (PDFs), thus one can extract the PDFs $f_{1\scriptscriptstyle{LL}}$, $f_{\scriptscriptstyle{LT}}$, and $f^{(1)}_{\scriptscriptstyle{1LT}}$ from the experimental measurements of Drell-Yan process. Our study should be helpful to solve the puzzle in the tensor-polarized structures of the deuteron.

description: Soil fertility management has always been a major concern in farms in the Sahelian zone. Some farming practices such as the periodic mobility of habitat within the fields provide a means of restoring soil fertility in western part of Niger. This work aims to study the effect of this practice on soil fertility in the village of Sadoré. Surveys were conducted with 30 farmers to understand farmers' perceptions of habitat mobility within the fields. Soil sampling was carried out on the 10 centimeters deep surface layer: six samples on the location of the old habitat areas and six samples on normal surfaces of the cultivated fields (controls) distant100 meters apart. The parameters chosen are pH, organic carbon (C), nitrogen (N), cation exchange capacity (CEC), assimilable phosphorus (P) and the sum of exchangeable bases (S). Surveys have shown that 100% of farmers practice habitat mobility in their fields to restore and improve soil fertility in degraded areas. The results of soil analyzes corroborate farmers' perceptions and show that the periodic mobility of the habitat in the field significantly improves soil fertility. The results of this study show that the periodic movement of habitat in the field improves significantly soil fertility. In fact, the best soil characteristics were obtained at the level of the old habitat zones compared to the normal surfaces of the cultivated fields. The improvement of soil physico-chemical parameters in relation to this habitat mobility is mainly due to the enrichment of soils in organic matter and in nutrients through household residues, litter and aeolian sediments trapped.

description: Carbon chemistry has attracted a lot of attention by chemists, physicists and material scientists in the last decades. The recent discovery of graphullerene provides a promising platform for many applications due to its exceptional electronic properties and the possibility to host molecules or clusters inside the fullerene units. Herein, we introduce graphendofullerene, a novel molecular-based two-dimensional (2D) magnetic material formed by trimetallic nitrides clusters encapsulated on graphullerene. Through first-principles calculations, we demonstrate the successful incorporation of the molecules into the 2D network formed by C$_{80}$ fullerenes, which leads to a robust long-range ferromagnetic order with a Curie temperature (Tc) of 38 K. Additionally, we achieve a 45% increase in Tc by strain engineering. These findings open the way for a new family of molecular 2D magnets based on graphendofullerene for advanced technologies.

description: We propose a quantum-enhanced heat engine with entanglement. The key feature of our scheme is superabsorption, which facilitates enhanced energy absorption by entangled qubits. Whereas a conventional engine with $N$ separable qubits provides power with a scaling of $P = Θ(N)$, our engine uses superabsorption to provide power with a quantum scaling of $P = Θ(N^2)$. This quantum heat engine also exhibits a scaling advantage over classical ones composed of $N$-particle Langevin systems. Our work elucidates the quantum properties allowing for the enhancement of performance.

Subjects: Flow, benches, Water conservation, Landscaping, Tiger bush, Niger.

description: In the Sahel, many water and soils conservation techniques have been implemented within degraded soil areas to reduce their runoff production capacity. However, few are the works that have analyzed the relationships between the landscaping extension area and the importance of the runoff drop generated. The present work aims at fullfulling this lack of knowledge. Experiments were carried out within the Tondi Kiboro catchment (17.7 ha) which is a representative site of the hydro-environmental conditions of Western Niger. In 2007 and 2008, the initial catchment runoff coefficient (no landscaping) was determined using a hydrometric station. In 2010, 3% of the catchment contributory surface (lateritic plateau) was laid out by benches. This proportion was then gradually increased every year to reach 9% in 2016. Thus, it was possible to follow the concomitant evolution of landscaped area and runoff coefficient. The results show that benches play an important role in water retention and flow limitation. Between 2010 and 2016, the runoff coefficient decreased from 43% to 10% though the total landscaped surface remains less than 10%. Since 2012, the runoff coefficient has more or less stabilized around 10% (± 2%). It is thus remarkable that the runoff decrease is not proportional to the dimension of the landscaped surface. Thanks to this work, it was possible to determine an optimal landscaped area that can reduce runoff to a desired level.

description: During wastewater treatment, precisely at wastewater treatment plant (WWTP), a big quantity of sewage sludge is produced resulting from the sedimentation of the suspended solids. This sludge can be incinerated, evacuated to landfills, or applied in agriculture as soil amendment. Compared to the first two options, land application is the most efficient and has the lowest cost. However, before being applied, there are regulations that must be respected. This study aims at characterizing the quality of treated sludge from wastewater treatment plant of Nador city; first in terms of some micropollutants, such as Heavy Metals (HMs), Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs), and second in terms of fertilizing elements to assess their potential for land application. GC-MS and AAS were used to measure these contents in sludge. Analysis showed that concentrations of heavy metals such as Zinc, Copper, Lead, Chromium, Mercury and Nickel were below the regulatory limits for sludge to be used in agriculture. The same case for the 7 main PCBs and 4 PAHs. Moreover, from the point of view of nutrients, it has been proved that the sludge contains a high amount of nutrients. The results obtained show that the sludge of the WWTP of Nador city can be applied in agriculture to increase soil fertility.

description: The Tinjdad palm grove aquifer, located in South-East Morocco, is experiencing a recrudescence of pumping and a decrease in rainfall. The experiments carried out on the hydrological regime of the wadis showed the interest of the establishment of prohibition and safeguarding perimeters of khettaras and the artificial recharge of the aquifer by the installation of systems allowing infiltration in the wadi beds. The most suitable technique for flood waters is the setting up of dams in the wadis to artificially increase the contact area by making “dead arms” work and decrease the flow velocities downstream of the dam, while preserving groundwater resources by groundwater contracts setup and delimiting the prohibition and safeguarding perimeters.

A High-Statistics Search For Non-Standard Neutrino Interactions With Icecube Deepcore
Creators: name: EHRHARDT, Thomas
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2018

description: We present a new search for non-standard neutrino interactions (NSI) with three years of data from IceCube DeepCore. Owing to its dense instrumentation, DeepCore lowers the energy threshold of the IceCube Neutrino Observatory to about 5 GeV and thereby allows detecting and reconstructing high-statistics samples of atmospheric neutrinos. Extra neutrino interactions beyond the Standard Model, or NSI, may arise as the result of various types of new physics, such as extended gauge symmetries or additional neutral leptons. The presence of NSI alters the matter potential atmospheric neutrinos encounter as they propagate through the Earth, which in turn can lead to sizeable effects on the neutrino oscillation probabilities, both at low and high energy. This search has sensitivity to several NSI couplings due to the inclusion of neutrinos of all flavours and makes use of an extended energy range compared to an earlier analysis.

description: Performance of machine learning algorithms depends critically on identifying a good set of hyperparameters. While recent approaches use Bayesian optimization to adaptively select configurations, we focus on speeding up random search through adaptive resource allocation and early-stopping. We formulate hyperparameter optimization as a pure-exploration non-stochastic infinite-armed bandit problem where a predefined resource like iterations, data samples, or features is allocated to randomly sampled configurations. We introduce a novel algorithm, Hyperband, for this framework and analyze its theoretical properties, providing several desirable guarantees. Furthermore, we compare Hyperband with popular Bayesian optimization methods on a suite of hyperparameter optimization problems. We observe that Hyperband can provide over an order-of-magnitude speedup over our competitor set on a variety of deep-learning and kernel-based learning problems.

description: Skin cancer is a serious and potentially fatal disease caused by DNA damage. Early detection significantly increases survival rates, making accurate diagnosis crucial. In this groundbreaking study, we present a hybrid framework based on Deep Learning (DL) that achieves precise classification of benign and malignant skin lesions. Our approach begins with dataset preprocessing to enhance classification accuracy, followed by training two separate pre-trained DL models, InceptionV3 and DenseNet121. By fusing the results of each model using the weighted sum rule, our system achieves exceptional accuracy rates. Specifically, we achieve a 92.27% detection accuracy rate, 92.33% sensitivity, 92.22% specificity, 90.81% precision, and 91.57% F1-score, outperforming existing models and demonstrating the robustness and trustworthiness of our hybrid approach. Our study represents a significant advance in skin cancer diagnosis and provides a promising foundation for further research in the field. With the potential to save countless lives through earlier detection, our hybrid deep-learning approach is a game-changer in the fight against skin cancer.

description: In the absence of dissipation a non-rotating magnetic nanoparticle can be stably levitated in a static magnetic field as a consequence of the spin origin of its magnetization. Here we study the effects of dissipation on the stability of the system, considering the interaction with the background gas and the intrinsic Gilbert damping of magnetization dynamics. At large applied magnetic fields we identify magnetization switching induced by Gilbert damping as the key limiting factor for stable levitation. At low applied magnetic fields and for small particle dimensions magnetization switching is prevented due to the strong coupling of rotation and magnetization dynamics, and the stability is mainly limited by the gas-induced dissipation. In the latter case, high vacuum should be sufficient to extend stable levitation over experimentally relevant timescales. Our results demonstrate the possibility to experimentally observe the phenomenon of quantum spin stabilized magnetic levitation.

description: الملخص تحديات تنويع اقتصاديات الدول الغنية والتابعة للبترول: أي فرص للاقتصاد الجزائري من خلال الطاقة الشمسية؟ تواجه الجزائر اليوم أعظم التحديات الاقتصادية جراء الانخفاض المفاجئ لأسعار البترول حيث انخفض من 100$/للبرميل في بداية 2014 إلى أقل من 50$/للبرميل سنة 2015، مما أدى إلى انخفاض معدل النمو الاقتصادي من 4.3% سنة 2014 إلى 2.8% سنة 2015 كنتيجة إلى التراجع في قطاع المحروقات بالإضافة إلى التباطؤ الشديد في نمو القطاع خارج المحروقات. مما أدى غلى عجز مالي قدر بالضعف مقارنة بعام 2010 حيث قدر ب11.5% من الناتج المحلي الإجمالي لسنة 2015، وترجم التقلص الشديد في عائدات الصادرات عجزا في الحساب الجاري، وبالتالي أظهر انخفاض أسعار البترول ضعف وهشاشة الهيكل الاقتصادي الجزائري، مما وضعها أمام حقيقة حتمية تنويع الاقتصاد من خلال تحسين بيئة الأعمال واستحداث قطاع خاص ديناميكي بهدف الحفاظ على الاستقرار والخروج من دائرة الريع مما يسمح بتحقيق نمو اقتصادي مستديم. وتملك الجزائر فرصة ذهبية لدعم والارتقاء باقتصادها تتمثل في الطاقة الشمسية نظرا للإمكانيات الهائلة التي تملكها في هذا المجال، إن استغلتها بطريقة مثلى. الكلمات المفتاحية: التنويع الاقتصادي، تنويع الصادرات، التخصيص الإنتاجي، البترول، الطاقة الشمسية. Résumé: Les Défis de la Diversification des Economies Dépendantes du Pétrole: Quelles Perspectives Pour L'économie Algérienne à Partir de L'énergie Solaire? Depuis la mi-2014, l'Algérie a été durement touchée par la chute des prix internationaux du pétrole. Le prix moyen du pétrole est déjà tombé à 100 USD / baril en 2014, mais devrait atteindre 58,3 USD / baril en 2015. La croissance ralentit, le taux de croissance du PIB passant de 4,3% en 2014 à 2,8% par une croissance négative dans le secteur des hydrocarbures et une décélération dans le secteur des non-hydrocarbures. Après des déficits budgétaires modestes au début de l'année 2010, le déficit budgétaire devrait presque doubler, passant de -6,2% du PIB en 2014 à environ -11,5% du PIB en 2015, et connaît également un accroissement significatif de son déficit courant. Cela prouve la faiblesse de la structure économique algérienne. Et finalement réalisé l'inévitabilité de la diversification de son économie en améliorant l'environnement des affaires et en créant des emplois dans le secteur privé afin de maintenir la stabilité et de sortir de l'économie rentière. L'Algérie a une opportunité en or de soutenir et de promouvoir son économie représentée dans l'énergie solaire compte tenu de l'énorme potentiel qui existe dans ce domaine, si exploité de manière optimale.

description: This chapter draws tentative conclusions from the findings of the book contributions with regard to possible future ways to organise TA on a global scale. These considerations comprise a discussion of possible organisational shapes that can support the global interchange and sharing of TA capacities, and increase its political relevance and operability on a global level. Beyond such medium- and long-term aspirations, the outlook reflects on more short-term practical steps that could be taken within the globalTA Network to improve interchange of knowledge and expertise, engage in joint projects and mutually foster analytical and methodological capacities.

description: الملخص: تجربة النرويج في مجال استخدام العوائد النفطية( دروس مستخلصة للجزائر ) تهدف هذه الدراسة إلى محاولة دراسة تجربة النرويج في مجال استخدام العوائد النفطية مع استخلاص دروس بالنسبة للجزائر التي تبعتها وقامت بتطبيق نفس التجربة، و هذا بعد النجاح الكبير الذي حققته التجربة النرويجية في هذا المجال نتيجة السياسة التي انتهجتها النرويج في الاستخدام الغير مباشر لعوائد النفط، وذلك بوضعها في صندوق النفط، واستغلال 4 % من هذه العوائد في الميزانية السنوية والباقي يستثمر للأجيال المقبلة بصورة لا تؤثر على الميزانية. ويكمن الهدف من ذلك في حماية الاقتصاد النرويجي من الارتفاع الحاد لأسعار النفط وتقلباتها، مع خلق قاعدة لتنمية العوائد المالية على المدى الطويل بوصفها وسيلة لتنويع مصادر الدخل وتجنب المخاطر. الكلمات المفتاحية: العوائد النفطية، استخدام العوائد النفطية، تجربة الجزائر، تجربة النرويج. Résumé : Expérience de la Norvège dans l’utilisation des revenus pétroliers (enseignements tirés pour l’Algérie) L'objectif de cette étude est de tenter d'examiner l'expérience de la Norvège en matière d'utilisation des produits pétroliers en tirer des enseignements pour l'Algérie suivies par l'application de la même expérience, et ce après le succès remporté par l'expérience de la Norvège dans ce domaine du fait de la politique menée par la Norvège à l'utilisation directe du pétrole, en plaçant le Fonds du pétrole, de l'exploitation de 4 % de ces produits dans le budget annuel et le reste des investissements pour les générations futures et ont des répercussions sur le budget. L'objectif est de protéger l'économie norvégienne de la forte hausse des prix du pétrole et de la volatilité, en créant une base à long terme pour le développement des rendements financiers en tant que moyen de diversifier les sources de revenus et d'éviter les risques.

Subjects: Exclusive Breastfeeding, Dibindi, Associated Factors, Breastfeeding Women.

description: Exclusive breastfeeding rates for infants under six months of age differ widely from country to country. Burundi, Eritrea, Kenya and Uganda are examples of countries with rates above 60% whereas Côte d'Ivoire, Nigeria and West and Central African countries have rates as low as 15%. Breast milk can protect the child against infectious diseases and ensure good growth. However, little is known about factors that prevent exclusive breastfeeding of infants under 6 months old in Africa, particularly in Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). This study aims at identifying the factors associated with non-adherence of women to exclusive breastfeeding in the Dibindi Health Zone, DRC. It was based on a structured questionnaire survey. A total of 118 breastfeeding women living in the study area, were interviewed. Socio-demographic and cultural factors including illnesses suffered by lactating women, having seen another mother stop breastfeeding, large families, the first time the mother breastfeeds, low household income, religion practiced by mothers, have been identified as factors associated with women's low adherence to exclusive breastfeeding in the Dibindi Health Zone.
