selfloop_cycle

selfloop_cycle([rng], [T], dims...; 
    cycle_weight=0.1, selfloop_weight=0.1,
    return_sparse=false, kwargs...)

Creates a simple cycle reservoir with the addition of self loops (Elsarraj et al., 2019).

This architecture is referred to as TP1 in the original paper.

Equations

\[W_{i,j} = \begin{cases} ll, & \text{if } i = j \\ r, & \text{if } j = i - 1 \text{ for } i = 2 \dots N \\ r, & \text{if } i = 1, j = N \\ 0, & \text{otherwise} \end{cases}\]

Arguments

• rng: Random number generator. Default is Utils.default_rng() from WeightInitializers.
• T: Type of the elements in the reservoir matrix. Default is Float32.
• dims: Dimensions of the reservoir matrix.

Keyword arguments

• cycle_weight: Weight of the cycle connections in the reservoir matrix. This can be provided as a single value or an array. In case it is provided as an array please make sure that the lenght of the array matches the lenght of the cycle you want to populate. Default is 0.1.
• selfloop_weight: Weight of the self loops in the reservoir matrix. This can be provided as a single value or an array. In case it is provided as an array please make sure that the lenght of the array matches the lenght of the diagonal you want to populate. Default is 0.1.
• return_sparse: flag for returning a sparse matrix. Default is false.
• sampling_type: Sampling that decides the distribution of weight negative numbers. If set to :no_sample the sign is unchanged. If set to :bernoulli_sample! then each weight can be positive with a probability set by positive_prob. If set to :irrational_sample! the weight is negative if the decimal number of the irrational number chosen is odd. If set to :regular_sample!, each weight will be assigned a negative sign after the chosen strides. strides can be a single number or an array. Default is :no_sample.
• positive_prob: probability of the weight being positive when sampling_type is set to :bernoulli_sample!. Default is 0.5.
• irrational: Irrational number whose decimals decide the sign of weight. Default is pi.
• start: Which place after the decimal point the counting starts for the irrational sign counting. Default is 1.
• strides: number of strides for assigning negative value to a weight. It can be an integer or an array. Default is 2.
