Benchmarking the Connectomes of Caenorhabditis elegans within the Reservoir Computing Framework

Read the original on arXiv Machine Learning →

The paper investigates the connectomes of *Caenorhabditis elegans* by implementing them as echo state networks within a reservoir computing framework. Using connectomes derived at different ages and through three distinct measurement methods, the authors benchmark performance on neuro-inspired tasks, comparing biological wiring to randomized null models. Results indicate that biological wiring and bio-informed input/output configurations do not consistently outperform random models, and performance varies significantly with reservoir configuration and connectome derivation.

ELiSe: Efficient Learning of Sequences in Structured Recurrent Networks

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.
