Emergent Self‐Adaptation in an Integrated Photonic Neural Network for Backpropagation‐Free Learning by Alessio Lugnan, Samarth Aggarwal, Frank Brückerhoff‐Plückelmann, C. David Wright, Wolfram H. P. Pernice, Harish Bhaskaran, Peter Bienstman

“…Importantly, this is realized autonomously in an emergent fashion, without the need for an external controller setting weights and without explicit feedback of a global reward signal. Using a hierarchy of such arrays coupled to a backpropagation‐free training algorithm based on simple logistic regression, a performance of 98.2% is achieved on the MNIST task, a popular benchmark task looking at classification of written digits. …”

Is Nuclear Anarchy Sustainable? A Temporal Approach by Ye. I. Uchaev, A. A. Kvartalnov

“…Familiar events of nuclear history including early attempts to establish international control of nuclear energy, the Strategic Defense Initiative, and the evolution of the anti-nuclear movement are interpreted here as empirical evidence in favor of the theoretical implications described above.Thus, the concept of temporal contradiction provides another argument in favor of the idea that nuclear anarchy is unsustainable in the long run, since the proliferation of the finite temporality leads to international hierarchy, whereas persistent indefinite temporality masks the severity of the nuclear threat, making nuclear war more conceivable and probable.…”
