Abstract

We introduce neural networks as a new basis for computation. The role optics can play In implementing neural networks is discussed in terms of the requirements for optical systems and devices. A conclusion is drawn that the rapidly evolving knowledge of neural network models argues for a flexible and adaptable device technology. Such a technology is described using the self electro-optic effect device as an example.
