Reservoir Computing using High Order Synchronization of Coupled Oscillators (2004.04114v1)

Abstract: We propose a concept for reservoir computing on oscillators using the high-order synchronization effect. The reservoir output is presented in the form of oscillator synchronization metrics: fractional high-order synchronization value and synchronization efficiency, expressed as a percentage. Using two coupled relaxation oscillators built on VO2 switches, we created an oscillator reservoir that allows simulating the XOR operation. The reservoir can operate as with static input data (power currents, coupling forces), as with dynamic data in the form of spike sequences. Having a small number of oscillators and significant non-linearity, the reservoir expresses a wide range of dynamic states. The proposed computing concept can be implemented on oscillators of diverse nature.
