In this talk, I will describe a number of open source photonic simulation packages developed in our group for modeling large scale classical and quantum photonic circuits. These include Simphony, a high speed photonic circuit simulator; SiPANN, a photonic simulation package based on neural networks; and EMEPy, an eigenmode expansion package. Direct integration with quantum photonic circuit solvers, such as Strawberry Fields, allows for quantum photonic circuit simulation that is hardware-aware and device-specific.
