System And Method For Parameter Multiplexed Gradient Descent

NIST Inventors
Adam McCaughan , Sonia Buckley and Andrew Dienstfrey
Parameter multiplexed gradient descent (PMGD) is a machine learning training method designed to easily train emergent non-volatile memory and neuromorphic hardware platforms.
Diagram showing the circuit for resetting the Spectral Power Distribution (SPD) after the Light Emitting Diode (LED) has emitted a photonic pulse.

Superconducting Opto-Electronic Transmitter Circuit

NIST Inventors
Sonia Buckley , Adam McCaughan and Jeff Shainline
This invention describes a family of circuits that receive an input current or voltage pulse when a superconducting element has been driven above threshold, producing an amplified current or voltage pulse to drive a light source, and reset to the resting state after light has been generated.

Thermal Impedance Amplifier

NIST Inventors
Adam McCaughan , Varun Verma and Sonia Buckley
A thermal impedance amplifier includes: a resistive layer including: a resistance member; a first electrode in electrical communication with the resistance member; and a second electrode in electrical communication with the resistance member; a switch layer opposing the resistive layer and including

Neuromimetic Circuit

NIST Inventors
Jeff Shainline and Sonia Buckley
Optoelectronic neural networks comprise a system of interconnected processing units (neurons) interconnected by integrated photonic waveguides. The processing units receive photonic signals from other units. Each unit sums the received signals on a waveguide-integrated photon detector, and when the
