Aspects of the present application relate to techniques for computing convolutions and cross-
correlations of input matrices. A first technique is based on the transformation of convolution …

A programmable photonic integrated circuit implements arbitrary linear optics
transformations in the spatial mode basis with high fidelity. Under a realistic fabrication …

A method of nonblocking optical switching includes guiding a first optical beam from a first
input to a first output via a first path through an optical switching fabric. The first path …

Aspects relate to a photonic processing system, a photonic processor, and a method of
performing matrix-vector multiplication. An optical encoder may encode an input vector into …

Methods and apparatus for training a matrix-based differentiable program using a photonics-
based processor. The matrix-based differentiable program includes at least one matrix …

Optical encoders for encoding signed, real numbers using optical fields are described. The
optical fields may be detected using coherent detection, without the need for independent …

A photonic parallel network can be used to sample combinatorially hard distributions of Ising
problems. The photonic parallel network, also called a photonic processor, finds the ground …

The mirror deep neural networks (DNNs) as described herein recognize patterns in an input
signal. Mirror DNNs regularize to a linear function and train very quickly. Mirror DNNs …

Abstract Systems and methods that include: providing input information in an electronic
format; converting at least a part of the electronic input information into an optical input …
