Photocatalytic technology, which is regarded as a green route to transform solar energy into chemical fuels, plays an important role in the fields of energy and environmental protection. An emerging S-scheme heterojunction with the tightly coupled interface, whose photocatalytic efficiency exceeds those of conventional type II and Z-scheme photocatalysts, has received much attention due to its rapid charge carrier separation and strong redox capacity. This review provides a systematic description of S-scheme heterojunction in the photocatalysis, including its development, reaction mechanisms, preparation, and characterization methods. In addition, S-scheme photocatalysts for CO2 reduction are described in detail by categorizing them as 0D/1D, 0D/2D, 0D/3D, 2D/2D, and 2D/3D. Finally, some defects of S-scheme heterojunctions are pointed out, and the future development of S-scheme heterojunctions is proposed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Nowadays, deep representations have gained significant attention due to their outstanding performance in a wide range of tasks. However, the interpretability of deep representations in specific applications poses a significant challenge. For instances where the generated quantity matrices exhibit symmetry, this paper introduces a variant of deep matrix factorization (deep MF) called deep L p smooth symmetric non-negative matrix factorization (DSSNMF), which aims to improve the extraction of clustering structures inherent in complex hierarchical and graphical representations in high-dimensional datasets by improving the sparsity of the factor matrices. We successfully applied DSSNMF to synthetic datasets as well as datasets related to post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) to extract several hierarchical communities. Specifically, we identified non-disjoint communities within the partial correlation networks of PTSD psychiatric symptoms, resulting in highly meaningful clinical interpretations. Numerical experiments demonstrate the promising applications of DSSNMF in fields like network analysis and medicine. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
