In this architecture, randomized coupling between lattice sites grants the reservoir the “black box” property inherent to reservoir processors. The reservoir is then excited, which acts as the input, by an incident optical field. Readout occurs in the form of occupational numbers of lattice sites, which are naturally nonlinear functions of the input. | In this architecture, randomized coupling between lattice sites grants the reservoir the “black box” property inherent to reservoir processors.
