Abstract
System and device technologies for optical neural networks are described, with focusing on the Hopfield associative memories. The optical neural network with a stochastic process is first demonstrated to reduce the undesirable effects of local minima. The new architectures for large-scale neural networks using the time- and frequency-division multiplexing techniques are also proposed, together with their computer simulation results. Finally, several novel optical devices for all-optical neural networks, which include surface-emitting semiconductor laser arrays and ultrafast all-optical switching devices, are briefly described.
