Summary:
Photonic neuromorphic computing is the intersection of sub nanosecond fluctuations with the performance and energy efficiency of the human brain. These systems operate based on a nonlinear transformation of input streams, and by fully understanding the attractor dynamics of the transformation it is possible to optimize these dynamics for a computing task. By optimizing the dynamical state of our neural net, we are able to process over 70 million digits per second.
