Free-Space Optical Neural Network Based on Optical Nonlinearity and Pooling Operations

Despite various optical realizations of convolutional neural networks (CNNs), optical implementation of nonlinear activation functions and pooling operations are still challenging problems. In this regard, this paper proposes an optical saturable absorption nonlinearity and its atomic-level model, a...
