New ‘game-changing’ discovery for light-driven artificial intelligence

In a paper, titled “Partial coherence enhances parallelized photonic computing,” published in Nature, researchers from the University of Oxford, along with collaborators from the Universities of Muenster, Heidelberg, and Ghent, report that replacing lasers with less complex light sources can surprisingly boost performance in some optical applications, such as light-driven AI technologies. In a paper, titled “Partial coherence enhances parallelized photonic computing,” published in Nature, researchers from the University of Oxford, along with collaborators from the Universities of Muenster, Heidelberg, and Ghent, report that replacing lasers with less complex light sources can surprisingly boost performance in some optical applications, such as light-driven AI technologies. Optics & Photonics Phys.org – latest science and technology news stories
