Abstract
Consistency of response in a system driven repeatedly by a complex signal has been observed in many nonlinear dynamical systems. We investigate the consistency of unidirectionally coupled semiconductor lasers with optical feedback and measure the complexity of the entire laser system by using the Lyapunov spectrum. The complexity strongly depends on the degree of consistency. It is found that the complexity of the coupled laser system can be classified into three regions. When the system shows consistency, the complexity of the entire laser system corresponds to that of the solitary drive laser. In the inconsistency region, the complexity of the entire laser system corresponds to the sum of the complexity of the uncoupled drive and response lasers. The complexity increases more than the sum of the two solitary lasers near the boundary of the consistency region, where new dynamical fluctuations appear due to the optical carrier interaction between the two lasers.

Laser dynamical reservoir computing with consistency: an approach of a chaos mask signal.

TL;DR: A chaos mask signal is introduced as an input temporal mask for reservoir computing and a time-series prediction task is performed to compare the errors of the task obtained from the chaosMask signal with those obtained from other digital and analog masks.

Consistency in echo-state networks.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors apply the concept of consistency to echo-state networks, which are an artificial-neural network version of reservoir computing, and measure the consistency levels of the high-dimensional response, yielding a comprehensive portrait of the echo state property.

Entropy rate of chaos in an optically injected semiconductor laser for physical random number generation

TL;DR: In this paper, the entropy of chaotic laser outputs generated by an optically injected semiconductor laser for physical random number generation was evaluated and the vertical resolution and sampling time τ were numerically optimized by comparing the entropy with the Kolmogorov-Sinai entropy.
