Researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) have developed an optical computing framework that performs large-scale nonlinear computations using linear materials. Reported in ...

Nonlinear functions defined over finite fields lie at the heart of modern algebraic design, with wide-ranging influence from cryptography to coding theory. Such functions depart from linear or affine ...

Many systems obey simple, linear rules: If you pull twice as hard on a spring, it stretches twice as far. However, when we introduce very large forces or complicated interactions, that linear rule ...

A new technical paper titled “Massively parallel and universal approximation of nonlinear functions using diffractive processors” was published by researchers at UCLA. “Nonlinear computation is ...
