Echo State Networks (ESNs) offer an efficient framework for temporal prediction, but their randomly initialized reservoirs are often over-parameterized and dynamically redundant. Existing pruning methods largely rely on static connectivity or activation statistics, which may overlook neurons that shape input-driven state transitions.

The paper introduces ELiSe, a model that leverages cortical network scaffolds and dendritic compartments to learn complex non‑Markovian spatio‑temporal patterns using only local, always‑on, phase‑free synaptic plasticity. It demonstrates the model’s ability to acquire and replay intricate sequences, exemplified by a birdsong learning mock‑up, and shows robustness to external disturbances and flexibility in parameter settings.

The pruning of network connections is key to brain function but, despite its importance, there exist few biologically-plausible pruning rules with demonstrated good performance. In this work we evaluate noise-prune, a recently introduced unsupervised local pruning rule for recurrent networks that uses noisy fluctuations to determine the importance of connections.
The paper investigates using reservoir computing, specifically an echo state network, to predict nonlinear dynamics in a jumping quarter‑car model. By training on limited time‑series data, the network can reconstruct bifurcation diagrams, phase‑space attractors, and time trajectories across both periodic and chaotic regimes, reproducing the period‑doubling route to chaos. These findings show that reservoir computing can serve as a data‑driven predictor for nonlinear, non‑smooth vehicle dynamics.
