Abstract

This chapter delves into the optimization of reservoir computing using genetic algorithms for forecasting SARS-CoV-2 hospitalizations. The study focuses on the impact of genetic algorithm hyperparameters on feature selection and reservoir computing performance in a high-dimensional setting. Key topics include the influence of genetic algorithm hyperparameters on model performance, the behavior of reservoir computing with different hyperparameter settings, and the robustness of the model over time. The results show that higher mutation rates in the genetic algorithm can lead to better generalization and reduced overfitting, while lower mutation rates may hinder performance. The study also explores strategies for achieving sparser models and their impact on performance. The findings highlight the potential of combining reservoir computing with genetic algorithms for accurate and robust forecasting in healthcare.
