<p>Reservoir Computing is a generic name that appeared at the end of 2006, gathering new paradigms for computing large recurrent neural networks with random connectivity, such as:</p>
<ul>
<li>ESN = Echo State Networks (Jaeger, 2001)</li>
<li>LSM = Liquid State Machines (Maass, Natschlager, Markram, 2002)</li>
<li>BPDC = Back-Propagation De-Correlation (Steil, 2004)</li>
</ul>
<p>Since they are dynamical, non-linear systems, recurrent networks are both highly powerful and very hard to tame. Highly powerful for solving complicated engineering tasks: control and modeling complex dynamical systems, temporal pattern recognition, speech recognition, autonomous robotics. Very hard to tame as long as the designer aims to control all the clockwork of the network dynamics for designing efficient learning rules.&#160;</p>
<p>The trick of Reservoir Computing is to design an internal network - the so-called "reservoir" - as a large random structure, with sparse connectivity, and to take advantage of its free auto-organization by learning with easy rules a set of "read-out" neurons, in order to extract relevant information from the reservoir dynamics. Neurons involved in such structures can be traditional neurons (threshold, sigmoid units) as well as spiking neurons that take into account the precise timing of spike firing.</p>
<p>Understanding and designing efficient models and methods for Reservoir Computing is a matter for research in machine learning (rethinking learning rules with a temporal dimension) and in complex systems (optimizing the emergence of a complex dynamical behavior from the structure of the reservoir). Coupling Reservoir Computing and Evolutionary Computation is also a topic of interest for the present working group.</p>
