Optical Neural Network Based on Slimmed Mach-Zehnder Interferometer Mesh

We propose three simplified MZI designs and experimentally verify that the accuracy is comparable to the original complete structure on the three classification tasks, while the number of optical devices used is significantly reduced.

Abstract

We propose three simplified MZI designs and experimentally verify that the accuracy is comparable to the original complete structure on the three classification tasks, while the number of optical devices used is significantly reduced.
