Measurement-Adapted Eigentask Representations for Photon-Limited Optical Readout
Tianyang Chen, Mandar M. Sohoni, Saeed A. Khan +5
Optical readout in low-light imaging is fundamentally limited by measurement noise, including photon shot noise, detector noise, and quantization error. In this regime, downstream…
Machine vision with small numbers of detected photons per inference
Shi-Yuan Ma, Jérémie Laydevant, Mandar M. Sohoni +3
Machine vision, including object recognition and image reconstruction, is a central technology in many consumer devices and scientific instruments. The design of machine-vision sys…
Large-scale quantum reservoir computing using a Gaussian Boson Sampler
Valeria Cimini, Mandar M. Sohoni, Federico Presutti +7
A Gaussian boson sampler (GBS) is a special-purpose quantum computer that can be practically realized at large scale in optics. Here we report on experiments in which we used a fre…
Quantum-limited stochastic optical neural networks operating at a few quanta per activation
Shi-Yuan Ma, Tianyu Wang, Jérémie Laydevant +2
Energy efficiency in computation is ultimately limited by noise, with quantum limits setting the fundamental noise floor. Analog physical neural networks hold promise for improved…
