摘要:

人工智能(AI)的最新进展提升了在标准计算机无法胜任的领域中的计算可能性。AI范式旨在模拟人类智能,因此打破了数字计算机所基于的熟悉架构。特别是神经形态计算、人工神经网络(ANN)和深度学习模型模仿大脑的计算方式。由大量相互连接的神经元组成的大型网络,其突触在学习阶段被单独增强或减弱,已找到许多应用。在这方面,光子学凭借其速度、低功耗和多波长机会,成为实现ANN硬件的合适平台。一个有望充当光学神经元的光子器件候选者是光学微环谐振器。实际上,微环谐振器既表现出非线性响应,又具有光能存储能力,这可以解释为一种衰减记忆。此外,通过使用硅光子学,光子集成电路可以批量制造,并在板上集成电子器件。出于这些原因,本文描述了硅微环谐振器及其阵列在神经形态计算中应用的物理原理。我们描述了不同类型的ANN,从前馈网络到光子极限学习机和储备池计算。此外,我们还讨论了硅微谐振器与其他活性材料耦合的混合系统。本综述旨在介绍该领域的基础知识并讨论其最新进展。

英文摘要:

The recent progress of artificial intelligence (AI) has boosted the computational possibilities in fields where standard computers are not able to perform. The AI paradigm is to emulate human intelligence and therefore breaks the familiar architecture on which digital computers are based. In particular, neuromorphic computing, artificial neural networks (ANN) and deep learning models mimic how the brain computes. Large networks of interconnected neurons whose synapsis are individually strengthened or weakened during the learning phase find many applications. With this respect, photonics is a suitable platform to implement ANN hardware thanks to its speed, low power dissipation and multi-wavelength opportunities. One photonic device candidate to perform as an optical neuron is the optical microring resonator. Indeed microring resonators show both a nonlinear response and a capability of optical energy storage, which can be interpreted as a fading memory. Moreover, by using silicon photonics, the photonic integrated circuits can be fabricated in volume and with integrated electronics on board. For these reasons, here, we describe the physics of silicon microring resonators and of arrays of microring resonators for application in neuromorphic computing. We describe different types of ANNs from feed-forward networks to photonics extreme learning machines and reservoir computing. In addition, we discuss also hybrid systems where silicon microresonators are coupled to other active materials. this review aims to introduce the basics and to discuss the most recent developments in the field.
