Title: Large-scale photonic computing with nonlinear disordered media Authors: Hao Wang, Jianqi Hu, Andrea Morandi, Alfonso Nardi, Fei Xia, Xuanchen Li, Romolo Savo, Qiang Liu, Rachel Grange & Sylvain Gigan published in Nature Computational Science (2024) Cite this article Abstract Neural networks find widespread use in scientific and technological applications, yet their implementations in conventional computers have encountered bottlenecks due to ever-expanding computational needs. Photonic computing is […]

In today’s society, where a large part of the information passes through social platforms, the phenomenon of echo chambers is well known. These are homogeneous and closed discursive communities in which users are exposed only to news and opinions that align with their previous beliefs, excluding different views and interpretations. However, one of the open […]
