Effect of shapes of activation functions on predictability in the echo state network

22 May 2019  ·  Hanten Chang, Shinji Nakaoka, Hiroyasu Ando ·

We investigate prediction accuracy for time series of Echo state networks with respect to several kinds of activation functions. As a result, we found that some kinds of activation functions with an appropriate nonlinearity show high performance compared to the conventional sigmoid function.
