Optical convolutional neural network with atomic nonlinearity — •Mingwei Yang1,2, Elizabeth Robertson1,2, Luisa Esguerra1,2, Kurt Busch3,4, and Janik Wolters1,21Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt, Institute of Optical Sensor Systems, Berlin, Germany. — 2Technische Universität Berlin, Berlin, Germany. — 3Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, Institut für Physik, AG Theoretische Optik & Photonik, Berlin, Germany. — 4Max-Born-Institut, Berlin, Germany.

Due to their inherent parallelism, fast processing speeds and low energy consumption, free-space-optics implementations have been identified as an attractive possibility for analog computations of convolutions [1,2]. However, the efficient implementation of optical nonlinearities for such neural networks still remains challenging. In this work, we report on the realization and characterization of a three-layer optical convolutional neural network where the linear part is based on a 4f-imaging system and the optical nonlinearity is realized via the absorption profile of a cesium atomic vapor cell. This system classifies the handwritten digital dataset MNIST with 83.96% accuracy, which agrees well with corresponding simulations. [1] H. J. Caulfield and S.
