An extension of an evolving spiking neural network (eSNN) is proposed that enables the method to process spatio-temporal information. In this extension, an additional layer is added to the network architecture that transforms a spatio-temporal input pattern into a single intermediate high-dimensional network state which in turn is mapped into a desired class label using a fast one-pass learning algorithm. The intermediate state is represented by a novel probabilistic reservoir computing approach in which a stochastic neural model introduces a non-deterministic component into a liquid state machine. A proof of concept is presented demonstrating an improved separation capability of the reservoir and consequently its suitability for an eSNN extension.
