Vectorial Boolean bent functions, which possess the maximal nonlinearity and the minimum differential uniformity, contribute to optimum resistance against linear cryptanalysis and differential cryptanalysis for the cryptographic algorithms that adopt them as nonlinear components. This paper is devoted to the new primary constructions of vectorial Boolean bent functions, including four types: ve...

Here, we report on a versatile full angular resolved/broad temperature range/vectorial magneto optical Kerr effect (MOKE) magnetometer, named TRISTAN. Its versatility relies on its capacity to probe temperature and angular dependencies of magnetization reversal processes without the need to do any intervention on the apparatus during measurements. The setup is a combination of a vectorial MOKE ...

This paper proposes a novel structured vectorial semantic framework, incorporating cognitively-motivated ‘gist’ semantics as selectional restrictions in interactive vectorial-semantic parsing. Applying vectorial semantic techniques (in particular, relational clustering over dependent headwords) in this extended framework has a predictable positive impact on parsing accuracy. The vectorial repre...

We have applied PCR amplification using random primers to distinguish between incipient species of the malaria vector Anopheles gambiae. Individuals belonging to three chromosomally characterized West African forms of this mosquito, which are important epidemiologically as they differ in vectorial capacity, were sampled both from laboratory stocks and from wild populations collected in three lo...

Vectorial Boolean bent functions, which possess the maximal nonlinearity and the minimum differential uniformity, contribute to optimum resistance against linear cryptanalysis and differential cryptanalysis. H vectorial functions is an infinite class of vectorial Boolean bent functions presented by S. Mesnager. This paper is devoted to further characterization of the H vectorial functions. It i...

Little is known about tsetse intraspecific variability and its consequences on vectorial capacity. Since isoenzyme analyses revealed little polymorphism, microsatellite markers have been developed for Glossina palpalis gambiensis species. Three loci have been identified and showed size polymorphisms for insectarium samples. Moreover, amplifications were observed in different species belonging t...

INTRODUCTION: Control of mosquito vectors has historically proven to be an effective means of eliminating malaria. Human malaria is transmitted only by mosquitoes in the genus Anopheles, but not all species within the genus, or even all members of each vector species, are efficient malaria vectors. Variation in vectorial capacity for human malaria among Anopheles mosquito species is determined ...
