The advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) have transformed various industries. As the size of AI models increases exponentially, traditional electronic systems are struggling to meet the compute demand due to their scaling limitations. This struggle necessitates a large network of disaggregated electronic chips for a single computational task and highlights the importance of optical technologies
The Coherent Ising Machine (CIM) being developed by NTT Research is a hybrid classical and quantum machine based on photonic circuits. It uses a network of optical parametric oscillators (OPOs) programmed to solve problems that have been mapped to an Ising model, a mathematical abstraction of magnetic systems composed of competitively interacting spins or angular
