While much research has focused on advancing log-linear parameterisations and neural network development, there has been a paucity of research addressin...
The search for novel hardware beyond the traditional von Neumann architecture has given rise to a modern area of unconventional computing requiring the efforts of mathematicians, physicists and engineers. Many analogue physical systems, including networks of nonlinear oscillators, lasers, condensates, and superconducting qubits, are proposed and re...
