We explore the hyperparameter space of reservoir computers used for forecasting of the chaotic Lorenz '63 attractor with Bayesian optimization. We use a new measure of reservoir performance, designed to emphasize learning the global climate of the forecasted system rather than short-term prediction. We find that optimizing over this measure more quickly excludes reservoirs that fail to reproduce the climate. The results of optimization are surprising: the optimized parameters often specify a reservoir network with very low connectivity. Inspired by this observation, we explore reservoir designs with even simpler structure and find well-performing reservoirs that have zero spectral radius and no recurrence. These simple reservoirs provide counterexamples to widely used heuristics in the field and may be useful for hardware implementations of reservoir computers.
