Abstract:Compact and low-power CMOS-compatible hardware can be used for on-chip optical neural networks (ONNs), enabling affordable and portable image classification solutions for applications like autonomous vehicles, healthcare, and optical communication. In this work, we propose a novel one-dimensional Optical Convolutional Neural Network (OCNN) architecture that significantly reduces the number of learnable parameters required for an ONN. Our OCNN achieves an impressive accuracy of over 96% as a pattern classifier,… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
