Highly efficient photonic convolver via lossless mode-division fan-in.
Article in Nature communications, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Optical neural networks (ONNs) leverage the parallelism and low-energy consumption of photonic signal processing to overcome the limitations of traditional electronic computing. Optics inherently enables fan-in and fan-out without the Resistor-Capacitor (RC) and Inductor-Capacitor (LC) delays of electrical interconnects. However, for single-mode photonic integrated circuits, reciprocity constraints introduce unavoidable loss during beam combining, hindering large-scale on-chip photonic fan-in. To overcome this challenge, we provide a photonic lossless mode-division fan-in solution for the convolution accelerators. Using inverse design, we developed a compact multimode photonic convolution accelerator (0.42 mm
