The SnS 2 /MoS 2 nanospheres (NPs) were prepared by a facile hydrothermal route, and microstructure and morphology were investigated by SEM, TEM, XRD and BET. The SnS 2 /MoS 2 NPs exhibited the excellent adsorption properties for organic dyes, and the maximum adsorption capacity of SnS 2 /MoS 2 to Rhodamine B (RhB) is 125 mg g −1 at room temperature. The adsorption process is well fit by the pseudo-second-order adsorption model and Langmuir isotherm model. Moreover, SnS 2 /MoS 2 NPs has outstanding adsorption capacity for both cations and anions organic dyes, and the maximum adsorption capacity for methylene blue (MB), crystal violet (CV) and malachite green (MG) were 202, 165 and 175 mg g −1 respectively. It is attribute to the high specific surface area (101.06 m 2 g −1 ) and small mesopores (3.23 nm) provide numerous adsorption active sites for adsorption of organic dyes. The reusability experiment demonstrated the SnS 2 /MnS 2 NPs could be reused for 5 times. The result show that the SnS 2 /MoS 2 NPs is a potential adsorbent for removal of organic dyes from wastewater.

This paper presents a new competition -at the 2022 IEEE Conference on Games (CoG) -called DareFightingICE Competition. The competition has two tracks: a sound design track and an AI track. The game platform for this competition is also called DareFightingICE, a fighting game platform. Dare-FightingICE is a sound-design-enhanced version of FightingICE, used earlier in a competition at CoG until 2021 to promote artificial intelligence (AI) research in fighting games. In the sound design track, participants compete for the best sound design, given the default sound design of DareFightingICE as a sample. Participants of the AI track are asked to develop their AI algorithm that controls a character given only sound as the input (blind AI) to fight against their opponent; a sample deep-learning blind AI will be provided by us. Our means to maximize the synergy between the two tracks are also described. This competition serves to come up with effective sound designs for visually impaired players, a group in the gaming community which has been mostly ignored. To the best of our knowledge, DareFightingICE Competition is the first of its kind within and outside of CoG.
