Scalable Perturbation Learning for Online Self-Supervised Echo State Networks
Intelligent systems should not only solve tasks but also adapt under real-world constraints. Autonomous adaptation via self-supervised learning, sequential adaptation via online learning, and memory-efficient implementation via perturbation-based learning are important requirements for such systems. However, these requirements are generally in tension for high-dimensional systems, because perturbation-based learning suffers from variance that grows with the dimension of the perturbed variables. In this study, we focus on echo state networks (ESNs), where this tension naturally arises in larg
