This article focuses on the development of algorithms for a smart neurorehabilitation system, whose core is made up of artificial neural networks. The authors of the article have proposed a completely unique transfer of ACE-R results to the CHC model. This unique approach allows for the saturation of the CHC model domains according to modified ACE-R factor analysis.

Since the inception of the unprecedented rise of halide perovskites for photovoltaic research, ion migration has shadowed this material class with undesirable hysteresis and degradation effects, limiting its practical implementations. Unfortunately, the localized doping and electrochemical reactions triggered by ion migration cause many more undesirable effects that are often unreported or misinterpreted because they deviate from classical semiconductor behavior. In this Perspective, we provide a concise overview of such effects in halide perovskites, such as operational instability in photovoltaics, polarization-induced abnormal external quantum efficiency in light-emitting diodes, and energy channel shift and anomalous sensitivities in hard radiation detection.

The study deals with the issue of using spiking neural networks (SNNs) in multiagent systems. The research objective is a proposal of a control algorithm for the cooperation of a group of agents using SNNs, application of the Izhikevich model, and plasticity depending on the timing of action potentials. The proposed method has been verified and experimentally tested, proving numerous advantages over second-generation networks.

This article presents a steganographic method StegoNN based on neural networks. The method is able to identify a photomontage from presented signed images. Unlike other academic approaches using neural networks primarily as classifiers, the StegoNN method uses the characteristics of neural networks to create suitable attributes which are then necessary for subsequent detection of modified photographs.

Hybrid organic-inorganic main-group metal halide compounds are the subject of intense research owing to their unique optoelectronic characteristics. In this work, we report the synthesis, structure, and electronic and optical properties of a family of hybrid tin (II) bromide compounds comprising guanidinium [G, C(NH) ] and mixed cesium-guanidinium cations: GSnBr, CsGSnBr, and CsGSnBr. GSnBr has a one-dimensional structure that consists of chains of corner-sharing [SnBr] square pyramids and G cations situated in between the chains.

Two-dimensional hybrid organic-inorganic lead halides perovskite-type compounds have attracted immense scientific interest due to their remarkable optoelectronic properties and tailorable crystal structures. In this work, we present a new layered hybrid lead halide, namely [CH(NH)][C(NH)]PbI, wherein puckered lead-iodide layers are separated by two small and stable organic cations: formamidinium, CH(NH), and guanidinium, C(NH). This perovskite is thermally stable up to 255 °C, exhibits room-temperature photoluminescence in the red region with a quantum yield of 3.

Interest in hybrid organic-inorganic lead halide compounds with perovskite-like two-dimensional crystal structures is growing due to the unique electronic and optoelectronic properties of these compounds. Herein, we demonstrate the synthesis, thermal and optical properties, and calculations of the electronic band structures for one- and two-layer compounds comprising both cesium and guanidinium cations: Cs[C(NH)]PbI (I), Cs[C(NH)]PbBr (II), and Cs[C(NH)]PbBr (III). Compounds I and II exhibit intense photoluminescence at low temperatures, whereas compound III is emissive at room temperature.

A novel ternary aluminum carbide, Y(3)AlC(3), has been synthesized under application of a lithium metal flux at high temperature (1523 K). Single-crystal structure determination of this compound revealed a new structure type with the Wyckoff sequence 2j3e and remarkable structural features at the border between Zintl and intermetallic phases. The puzzling bonding structure of Y(3)AlC(3) is analyzed with the aid of electronic structure calculations (energy bands and the electron localization function).
