Neurawave

neurawave

Neurawave is the next generation of QCi’s reservoir computing technology, using a full electro-optic platform optimized for machine learning problems. The Neurawave scales the reservoir computing architecture demonstrated in our commercially-used and published EmuCore system into a high-bandwidth electro-optic platform capable of achieving microsecond latency and real-time streaming performance not available on FPGA or GPU platforms, in a form factor comparable in size to a standard GPU system.
