Abstract:This work presents ROSA, a microring-based optical neural network architecture that improves robustness and energy efficiency using an optical shift-and-add (OSA) module and a layer-wise hybrid mapping strategy. It introduces a noise-aware voltage-to-weight model considering DAC and thermal variations, and a workload-aware framework to co-optimize MRR array size and layer-wise dataflow. Optimized arrays reduce the aggregated relative energy-delay product (EDP) by 64% and 26% compared with DEAP-CNNs and a general compact array, respectively. OSA further contributes 29% EDP reduction. The proposed hybrid mapping strategy improves CIFAR-10 accuracy by 8.3% over weight-stationary mapping while achieving an average 54.7% lower EDP than DEAP-CNNs.
