RC 2025

The 3rd International Workshop on Reservoir Computing (RC 2025)

Workshop of the 34th International Conference on Artificial Neural Networks  (ICANN 2025)

The RC Workshop

Reservoir Computing (RC) denotes a class of recurrent neural models whose dynamics are left unadapted after initialization. The approach is appealing for several reasons, such as fast training, a natural propensity to edge computing and strong theoretical foundations with implications for the basic properties of recurrent neural networks in general.

In the wake of the recent success of the past edition at ICANN 2024, the 3rd International Workshop on Reservoir Computing (RC 2025) intends to once more bring together researchers to discuss the state-of-the-art and open challenges in the field of RC, in all its declinations. These include, among others, new models of Echo State Networks and Liquid State Machines, non-conventional hardware (e.g., photonic) implementations of RC systems, applications to problems of AI size with human-level performance, emerging paradigms (e.g., conceptors), RC for structured data, deep RC, hybrid RC/fully trained RNN models, and many more. The workshop provides an open forum for researchers to meet and present recent contributions and ideas in a fervid and highly interdisciplinary environment. Industrial contributions are welcome.

See the topics of interest for the RC 2025 workshop in the call for papers.

The workshop will feature both contributed papers and keynotes.
