  • Abstract
    We present a high fan-in optoelectronic artificial neural network with temporally multiplexed grey scale weights and a prototype neural-detector backplane. The weights are generated using a high performance liquid crystal over silicon spatial light modulator. The neural-detector backplane is capable of recognising both excitatory and inhibitory activations
