Hello, I am planning to design an echo state network in the Brian simulator platform. Can anyone provide me with a supporting document or any guidelines for that? Thanks. ---

Hello, I haven’t found any echo state implementations in Brian after a quick search. Another good place to look for implementations across simulation platforms is [ModelDB](https://senselab.med.yale.edu/ModelDB/) [ModelDB - search results: reservoir](https://senselab.med.yale.edu/modeldb/searchFulltext?g=reservoir) Robust Reservoir Generation by Correlation-Based Learning (Yamazaki & Tanaka 2008), [[ModelDB page]](https://senselab.med.yale.edu/modeldb/ShowModel?model=116806) [[github page]](https://github.com/ModelDBRepository/116806), [[paper]](https://www.hindawi.com/journals/aans/2009/467128/) the implementations appears to be in C++, but looking at [main.c](https://senselab.med.yale.edu/ModelDB/showmodel.cshtml?model=116806&file=/aans2008/main.c#tabs-2) seems like a good place to start when writing a Brain2 implementation -Adam
