We have successfully grown centimeter-sized layered [Formula: see text] single crystals under high oxygen pressures of 120-150 bar by the floating zone technique. This enabled us to perform neutron scattering experiments where we observe close to quarter-integer magnetic peaks below [Formula: see text] that are accompanied by steep upwards dispersing spin excitations. Within the high-frequency Ni-O bond stretching phonon dispersion, a softening at the propagation vector for a checkerboard modulation can be observed. We were able to simulate the magnetic excitation spectra using a model that includes two essential ingredients, namely checkerboard charge disproportionation and nano phase separation. The results thus suggest that charge disproportionation is preferred instead of a Jahn-Teller distortion even for this layered [Formula: see text] system.

Two-dimensional (2D) van der Waals (vdW) materials are known for their intriguing physical properties, but their rational design and synthesis remain a great challenge for chemists. In this work, we successfully synthesized a new non-centrosymmetric oxide, i.e.

ν-one-class support vector classification (ν-OCSVC) has garnered significant attention for its remarkable performance in handling single-class classification and anomaly detection. Nonetheless, the model does not yield a unique decision boundary, and potentially compromises learning performance when the training data is contaminated by some outliers or mislabeled observations. This paper presents a novel C-parameter version of bounded one-class support vector classification (C-BOCSVC) to determine a unique decision boundary.

Bathymetric mapping of the coastal area is essential for coastal development and management. However, conventional bathymetric measurement in coastal areas is resource-expensive and under many constraints. Various research have been conducted to improve the efficiency or effectiveness of bathymetric estimations.
