We experimentally investigate delay-based photonic reservoir computing using semiconductor lasers with optical feedback and injection. We apply different types of temporal mask signals, such as digital, chaos, and colored-noise mask signals, as the weights between the input signal and the virtual nodes in the reservoir. We evaluate the performance of reservoir computing by using a time-series prediction task for the different mask signals. The chaos mask signal shows superior performance than that of the digital mask signals. However, similar prediction errors can be achieved for the chaos and colored-noise mask signals. Mask signals with larger amplitudes result in better performance for all mask signals in the range of the amplitude accessible in our experiment. The performance of reservoir computing is strongly dependent on the cut-off frequency of the colored-noise mask signals, which is related to the resonance of the relaxation oscillation frequency of the laser used as the reservoir.
