We present a study on the accuracy of three neural network architectures, namely fully-connected neural networks, recurrent neural networks, and attention-based neural networks, in predicting the coupling response of broadband microresonator frequency combs. These frequency combs are crucial for technologies like optical atomic clocks. Optimizing their spectral features, especially the dispersion in coupling to an access waveguide, can be computationally demanding due to the large number of parameters and wide spectral bandwidths involved. To address this challenge, we employ machine learning algorithms to estimate the coupling response at wavelengths not present in the input training data. Our findings demonstrate that when trained with data sets encompassing the upper and lower limits of each design feature, attention mechanisms achieve over 90% accuracy in predicting the coupling rate for spectral ranges six times wider than those used in training. This significantly reduces the computational burden for numerical optimization in ring resonator design, potentially leading to a six-fold reduction in compute time. Moreover, devices with strong correlations between design features and performance metrics may experience even greater acceleration.
