Wave-based reservoir computing by synchronization of coupled oscillators

Abstract

We propose wave-based computing based on coupled oscillators to avoid the inter-connection bottleneck in large scale and densely integrated cognitive systems. In addition, we introduce the concept of reservoir computing to coupled oscillator systems for non-conventional physical implementation and reduction of the training cost of large and dense cognitive systems. We show that functional approximation and regression can be efficiently performed by synchronization of coupled oscillators and subsequent simple readouts.
