Hewlett Packard Enterprise

Matěj Hejda is currently working as an Architecture & System Design Research Scientist within the Belgium-based team of the Large-Scale Integrated Photonics (LSIP) group of Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE). Previously, he has obtained his Ph.D. from the Institute of Photonics, University of Strathclyde (UK) working on spiking lasers and optoelectronic systems as functional primitives towards light-enabled neuromorphics. His main focus is on optical computing and neuromorphic photonics. He investigates integrated photonic circuits for AI acceleration, functional and system-level evaluations of such photonic accelerators, use-case driven hardware-software co-design for optical computing, and spike-based photonic/optoelectronic computing. His other interests also include neuroAI and photonic-electronic co-integration
