Weak Kerr Nonlinearity Boosts the Performance of Frequency-Multiplexed Photonic Extreme Learning Machines: A Multifaceted Approach

Marina Zajnulina, Alessandro Lupo, Serge Massar

We provide a theoretical, numerical, and experimental investigation of the Kerr nonlinearity impact on the performance of a frequency-multiplexed Extreme Learning Machine (ELM). In…
