Analyzing Echo-state Networks Using Fractal Dimension
Norbert Michael Mayer, Oliver Obst
This work joins aspects of reservoir optimization, information-theoretic optimal encoding, and at its center fractal analysis. We build on the observation that, due to the recursiv…
Designing an Inertia Actuator with a Fast Rotating Gyro inside an Egg-shaped Robot
Chun-Chi Wang, He-Zhi Liu, Rui-Yuan Lin +2
In this paper, we describe features of two new robot prototypes that are actuated by an actively controlled gyro (flywheel, symmetric rotor) inside a hollow sphere that is located…
Kinematics and dynamics of an egg-shaped robot with a gyro driven inertia actuator
Norbert Michael Mayer
The manuscript discusses still preliminary considerations with regard to the dynamics and kinematics of an egg shaped robot with an gyro driven inertia actuator. The method of calc…
Critical Echo State Networks that Anticipate Input using Morphable Transfer Functions
Norbert Michael Mayer
The paper investigates a new type of truly critical echo state networks where individual transfer functions for every neuron can be modified to anticipate the expected next input.…
Orthogonal Echo State Networks and stochastic evaluations of likelihoods
Norbert Michael Mayer, Ying-Hao Yu
We report about probabilistic likelihood estimates that are performed on time series using an echo state network with orthogonal recurrent connectivity. The results from tests usin…
Echo State Condition at the Critical Point
Norbert Michael Mayer
Recurrent networks with transfer functions that fulfill the Lipschitz continuity with K=1 may be echo state networks if certain limitations on the recurrent connectivity are applie…
Input anticipating critical reservoirs show power law forgetting of unexpected input events
Norbert Michael Mayer
Usually, reservoir computing shows an exponential memory decay. This paper investigates under which circumstances echo state networks can show a power law forgetting. That means tr…
Aging as a mean to retain an adaptive mutation rate in mutagenesis with asymmetric reproduction
Norbert Michael Mayer
The paper discusses a connection between asymmetric reproduction -- that is reproduction in a parent-child relationship where the parent does not mutate during reproduction --, the…
