> ReservoirPy [1, 2, 3] is a simple user-friendly library based on Python scientific modules. It provides a flexible interface to implement efficient Reservoir Computing (RC) [5] architectures with a particular focus on Echo State Networks (ESN) [4]. Advanced features of ReservoirPy allow to improve computation time efficiency on a simple laptop compared to basic Python implementation. Some of its features are: offline and online training, parallel implementation, sparse matrix computation, fast spectral initialization, advanced learning rules (e.g. Intrinsic Plasticity) etc. It also makes possible to easily create complex architectures with multiple reservoirs (e.g. deep reservoirs), readouts, and complex feedback loops. Moreover, graphical tools are included to easily explore hyperparameters with the help of the hyperopt library. It includes several tutorials exploring exotic architectures and examples of scientific papers reproduction.
