Distillation-guided Optical Neural Networks with Reinforcement Learning-assisted Calibration
Kangjian Di, Fuhao Yu, Silin Chen, Jiashu Li, Andy Liu, Sen Shao, et al.
Optical neural networks (ONNs) promise ultra-fast and energy-efficient computing but are hampered by the critical challenge of on-chip training. Here, we propose an on-chip training distillation-guided optical neural network (DGONN) and introduce a forward distilled algorithm to…
