We present a simulation for multimode-interference-based photonic reservoir computing (RC) that includes modal mixing. By using the scattering parameters for each separated part of the waveguide and cascading them, we efficiently performed a more accurate light propagation analysis considering modal mixing, even for the larger devices. The effectiveness of the approach was confirmed by typical tasks for RC.
