Predictive data science approaches for enhancing security in Niger

Ongoing Research Project

Abstract: The Sahel region, including Niger, faces numerous security challenges, such as terrorism, insurgency, and organized crime. Addressing these threats requires proactive measures and effective resource allocation. This thesis proposes the application of predictive data science approaches to enhance security in Sahel and Niger.

Objective: The main objective of this research is to develop predictive models and tools that leverage data science techniques to forecast security incidents, identify vulnerability hotspots, and optimize resource allocation for enhanced security in the Sahel region, with a specific focus on Niger.
