Abstract
A system for parallel photonic computation, preferably including a source module, a plurality of input modulator units, an optical interference unit (OIU), and a plurality of detector banks. An OIU, preferably including one or more unitary matrix modules and optionally including a diagonal matrix module. An input modulator, which can include one or more waveguides, couplers, and/or modulator banks. A method for parallel photonic computing, preferably including encoding input vectors, performing a desired matrix operation, and receiving output values, and optionally including performing electronic computations and/or performing further optical computations based on the outputs, which can function to compute the results of a matrix operation on many different input vectors in parallel.
