Shrnutí:We propose computing primitive for an all-optical spiking neural network (SNN) based on vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs) for supervised learning by using biologically plausible mechanisms. The spike-timing-dependent plasticity (STDP) model was established based on the dynamics of the vertical-cavity semiconductor optical amplifier (VCSOA) subject to dual-optical pulse injection. The neuron-synapse self-consistent unified model of the all-optical SNN was developed, which enables reproducing the essential neuron-like dynamics and STDP function. Optical character numbers are trained and tested by the proposed fully VCSEL-based all-optical SNN. Simulation results show that the proposed all-optical SNN is capable of recognizing ten numbers by a supervised learning algorithm, in which the input and output patterns as well as the teacher signals of the all-optical SNN are represented by spatiotemporal fashions. Moreover, the lateral inhibition is not required in our proposed architecture, which is friendly to the hardware implementation. The system-level unified model enables architecture-algorithm codesigns and optimization of all-optical SNN. To the best of our knowledge, the computing primitive of an all-optical SNN based on VCSELs for supervised learning has not yet been reported, which paves the way toward fully VCSEL-based large-scale photonic neuromorphic systems with low power consumption.
