In this work, we contribute two new methods to propagate uncertainty through the tanh activation function and propose the Probabilistic Echo State Network (PESN), a method that is shown to have better average performance than deterministic Echo State Networks given the random initialization of reservoir states.

In such problems, each sample $x$ itself is associated with a conditional distribution $p(z|x)$ represented by samples $\{z_i\}_{i=1}^M$, and the goal is to learn a function $f$ that links these conditional distributions to target values $y$.

We present a data-driven stochastic optimal control framework that is derived using the path integral (PI) control approach.
