Presentations
8:30am - 9:00am INVITED
Optical single-pixel sensing for Nonlinear Ising Machines
Luana Olivieri, Andrew R. Cooper, Luke Peters, Vittorio Cecconi, Alessia Pasquazi, Marco Peccianti, Juan S. Totero Gongora
Loughborough University, United Kingdom
Photonic Ising machines leverage large-scale parallelism for solving large combinatorial problems, yet multiple minima hamper Metropolis-based algorithm. A double single-pixel detection approach enables adiabatic energetic transitions from nonlocal to local Hamiltonians, finding the ground state of complex landscapes.
9:00am - 9:30am INVITED
Integrated or random nonlinear optical generator for machine learning
Andrea Morandi, Luis Mickeler, Rachel Grange
ETH Zurich, Switzerland
I will show experimental results with nonlinear quadratic materials, in particular lithium niobate and barium titanate, for optical computing.
9:30am - 10:00am INVITED
Controlling photon pairs in complex media : from circuits to machine learning
Sylvain Gigan
Sorbonne University, France
controlling light in complex media by wavefront shaping allows focusing and imaging, but it is also possible to control quantum states, such as indistinguishable photon pairs. I will discuss how one can control such states through a multimode fiber, and how it can be used for various tasks, ranging from emulating simple quasi-unitary circuits, to basic machine learning tasks, with a potential quantum advantage.
