Data for: "All-optical binary convolution with a photonic spiking VCSEL neuron for image gradient magnitudes"

Corresponding dataset for a paper titled "All-optical binary convolution with a photonic spiking VCSEL neuron for image gradient magnitudes". Convolution is performed on digital greyscale images to reveal gradient magnitude information using in-series Mach Zehnder modulators and a photonic VCSEL-neuron. The number of spiking responses triggered by the VCSEL-neuron represents the result of the convolution.
