NEUROMORPHIC PHOTONICS

Delve into the world of neuromorphic photonics, an emerging research field that develops an alternative approach to electronics with the attempt to set a milestone in increasing computing speed and decreasing energy efficiency using photons, instead of electrons. These artificial neural networks (ANN) have been employed in a plethora of applications, such as feature extraction, image classification, time series prediction and system optimisation. Knowledge of ultra-fast (photonic) neural networks and pattern recognition could contribute to quickly recognizing unexpected links between nodes/data and possibly understanding the level of alarm we should attach to them. We can adapt the know-how to global signals and identify connections as in a neural network.
