A number of investigations in this domain suggest that “best” recommendations, according to objective metrics, are sometimes not the ones that are most satisfying or useful to users. However, if the system assumes that user preferences are not in line with the recommendation made, mechanisms should be provided to put the user in control of the recommendations. The article investigates how to give control to the users in the systems of recommendation and the quality of these from a perspective centered on the user. We discuss a study that involved 4 scientific investigations related to the subject and consider parameters such as the type of recommendation system, the method used, the application area and the results obtained in those investigations. Which focuses on the accuracy and novelty of the recommended articles, and on the general satisfaction of the users. We have classified the recommendations considered with respect to these attributes and compared these results with measures of statistical quality of the algorithms considered. It is intended to generate new recommendations based on new preferences that could lead to greater user satisfaction and confidence in the system.}, author_keywords={User control, user experience and recommendation system}, keywords = {User control, user experience and recommendation system}, language = {Spanish}, affiliation={Facultad de Ciencias Matemáticas y Físicas, Universidad de Guayaquil, Guayaquil, Ecuador}, correspondence_address={Gary Reyes Zambrano; Facultad de Ciencias Matemáticas y Físicas, Universidad de Guayaquil, Guayaquil, Ecuador}, references={}, document_type={Article}, source={www.issr-journals.org} } @article{ijias-18-105-31, author = {Xavier MBUTABUBA NKURA and Constantin Lubini Ayingweu and K.

To better understand its floristic richness and its chorological position, an analysis of the florule, autoecological and phytogeographical spectra of the species was undertaken. This study was conducted using floristic material from botanical surveys. On an area of 8.65 km2 surveyed, 219 species were inventoried. They belong to 71 families and 168 genera. The most diverse families in number of species are Fabaceae, Poaceae, Rubiaceae, Euphorbiaceae, Cyperaceae, Apocynaceae and Asteraceae. Ecological spectra show the high representativeness of phanerophyts, geophytes, chamephyts, therophyts and hemicryptophyts. At the phytogeographic level, there is a predominance of regional guineo-Congolese species , followed by those with a very wide distribution and African with a large distribution. From the chorological point of view, this flora is north of the Bas-Congo sector and south of the guineo-Congolese regional center of endemism.

Firstly, Knowledge Attitude-Practice (KAP) surveys were organized in the study sites to generate adequate information on the use of insecticide on cotton fields. In each site, leaders of farmer’s organizations were interviewed using semi-structured questionnaires that focused on the treatment strategies, and the use of insecticides in the farms. Further, bioassays were performed on adult mosquitoes collected from various of each program to assess the susceptibility of malaria vectors to insecticide-impregnated papers (permethrin 0.75%, delthamethrin 0.05%, DDT 4%, and bendiocarb 0.1%) following WHOPES guidelines. Results of this study showed that various pesticides particularly pyrethroids were used for pests control in CCP and TICP sites; ii)-Susceptibility tests showed that An. gambiae populations have developped resistance to DDT (4% as mean mortality despite the strategies), permethrin (30% in CCP and TICP), deltamethrin (38% and 46% as mean mortality in CCP and TICP respectivetly), but fully susceptible to bendiocarb .

The perinatal mortality rate was 235 per 1,000 births, with a stillbirth rate of 216 per 1,000 births and early neonatal mortality of 24.4 per 1,000 births. An assessment of risk factors was conducted on 417 perinatal deaths and 1356 survivors. Worst socio-demographic variables such as maternal age greater than or equal to 35, celibacy, polygamy, primiparity, large multiparity, lack of employment or maternal employment in the private sector were significantly associated at the risk of perinatal mortality. The health variables such as access in reference mode, caesarean section, hysterectomy, laparotomy, ante and post partum haemorrhage, uterine rupture, delivery date, prolonged labor, labor absence of staff with surgical profiles, inadequate equipment and maternal death were also associated with the high risk of perinatal mortality.

The Beninese flora is rich in plants used to treat gastrointestinal diseases of farm animals whose chemical and biological potentials are still unknown. It is to correct this insufficiency that the present work aims at the chemical and biological recovery of Khaya senegalensis. After phytochemical screening, the phenolic compound contents of Khaya senegalensis extracts were determined spectrophotometer. Antibacterial and antiradical activities were evaluated by microplate dilution methods and DPPH respectively. The active ingredients of K. senegalensis were characterized by GC/MS. Several metabolites have been identified. The crude extracts (ethanolic, hydroethanolic and aqueous extracts) of K. senegalensis showed a lower antiradical activity compared to ethyl ether (IC50=0.09 μg/ml) and ethyl acetate (IC50=1μg/ml) fractions, which are more active that BHA (IC50= 4.8μg/ml), quercetin (IC50=3μg/ml) which are synthetic compounds. From the antibacterial activity, it appears that the objective extracts and fractions of this plant have a bactericidal activity with respect to Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae. From the results of the chromatographic analysis, it appears that the bark of K. senegalensis contains glycerol, glycerol ethanoate, pyrocatechol, octadecanamide and neoergosterone as major components. The diversity of metabolites, the anti-fungal and antibacterial activities of K. senegalensis, could justify the use of this plant in the veterinary pharmacopoeia in Benin.}, author_keywords={plant extracts, metabolites, bactericidal activity, antiradical activity}, keywords = {plant extracts, metabolites, bactericidal activity, antiradical activity}, language = {French}, affiliation={Laboratoire d’Etude et de Recherche en Chimie Appliquée, Ecole Polytechnique d’Abomey-Calavi, Université d’Abomey-Calavi (LERCA/EPAC/UAC), Benin}, correspondence_address={Koudoro Yaya Alain; Laboratoire d’Etude et de Recherche en Chimie Appliquée, Ecole Polytechnique d’Abomey-Calavi, Université d’Abomey-Calavi (LERCA/EPAC/UAC), Benin}, references={}, document_type={Article}, source={www.issr-journals.org} } @article{ijias-18-203-03, author = {Augustin Yao Koffi and Alain Nicaise KOUAMELAN and DJRO Sagbrou Chérubin and Kouadio Fossou Jean Luc Hervé and Teha Koffi Raoul and Kouassi Brice Roland and Koffi Gnagnon Raymond Stéphane and Fabrice AHISSOU and Martin AKOGBETO}, title = {{Petrography and origin of the metasediments of SASCA domain (SW of Côte d’Ivoire)}}, journal = {International Journal of Innovation and Applied Studies}, abbrev_source_title={Int.

We present new data on the petrographic characterization and origin of metasediments in this area. Both field and petrographic observations indicate that metasediments consist of garnet-sillimanite-cordierite paragneisses and staurolite and/or garnet mica schists. The major elements made it possible to constrain the origin of these metasediments by showing: (i) their belonging to the group of iron-rich shales in majority and secondarily to the Fe-rich sandstones, (ii) their provenance from basalt and andesitic rocks moderately weathered (60
