A simplified photonic reservoir computing scheme for data classification of severely distorted optical communication signals after extended fibre transmission is introduced, which demonstrates an improvement in bit-error-rate by two orders of magnitude compared to directly classifying the transmitted signal.Abstract:
Machine learning techniques have proven very efficient in assorted classification tasks. Nevertheless, processing time-dependent high-speed signals can turn into an extremely challenging task, especially when these signals have been nonlinearly distorted. Recently, analogue hardware concepts using nonlinear transient responses have been gaining significant interest for fast information processing. Here, we introduce a simplified photonic reservoir computing scheme for data classification of severely distorted optical communication signals after extended fibre transmission. To this end, we convert the direct bit detection process into a pattern recognition problem. Using an experimental implementation of our photonic reservoir computer, we demonstrate an improvement in bit-error-rate by two orders of magnitude, compared to directly classifying the transmitted signal. This improvement corresponds to an extension of the communication range by over 75%. While we do not yet reach full real-time post-processing at telecom rates, we discuss how future designs might close the gap.read more

ImageNet Classification with Deep Convolutional Neural Networks
TL;DR: The state-of-the-art performance of CNNs was achieved by Deep Convolutional Neural Networks (DCNNs) as discussed by the authors, which consists of five convolutional layers, some of which are followed by max-pooling layers, and three fully-connected layers with a final 1000-way softmax.

Deep learning
TL;DR: Deep learning is making major advances in solving problems that have resisted the best attempts of the artificial intelligence community for many years, and will have many more successes in the near future because it requires very little engineering by hand and can easily take advantage of increases in the amount of available computation and data.

Neural Machine Translation by Jointly Learning to Align and Translate
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors propose to use a soft-searching model to find the parts of a source sentence that are relevant to predicting a target word, without having to form these parts as a hard segment explicitly.

Sequence to Sequence Learning with Neural Networks
TL;DR: This paper presents a general end-to-end approach to sequence learning that makes minimal assumptions on the sequence structure, and finds that reversing the order of the words in all source sentences improved the LSTM's performance markedly, because doing so introduced many short term dependencies between the source and the target sentence which made the optimization problem easier.
