Latest Patents
You-Chiuan Chen holds a patent for an all-optical neural network. This invention utilizes light beams and optical components to implement layers of the neural network. The all-optical neural network includes an input layer, zero or more hidden layers, and an output layer. Each layer is designed to simulate both linear and nonlinear operations of a conventional artificial neural network neuron on an optical signal. The optical linear operation is performed by a spatial light modulator and an optical lens, which executes a Fourier transformation on the set of light beams and sums those with similar propagation orientations. The optical nonlinear operation is achieved using a nonlinear optical medium characterized by electromagnetically induced transparency, allowing the transmission of a probe beam of light to be controlled by the intermediate output of a coupling beam from the optical linear operation. He has 1 patent to his name.
