Abstract

See full text

A photonic processor uses light signals and a residue number system (RNS) to perform calculations. The processor sums two or more values by shifting the phase of a light signal with phase shifters and reading out the summed phase with a coherent detector. Because phase winds back every 2π radians, the photonic processor performs addition modulo 2π. A photonic processor may use the summation of phases to perform dot products and correct erroneous residues. A photonic processor may use the RNS in combination with a positional number system (PNS) to extend the numerical range of the photonic processor, which may be used to accelerate homomorphic encryption (HE)-based deep learning.
