A neuristor-based reservoir computing device includes support circuitry formed in a complimentary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) layer, input nodes connected to the support circuitry and output nodes connected to the support circuitry. Thin film neuristor nodes are disposed over the CMOS layer with a first portion of the neuristor nodes connected to the input nodes and a second portion of the neuristor nodes connected to the output nodes. Interconnections between the neuristor nodes form a reservoir accepting input signals from the input nodes and outputting signals on the output nodes. A method for forming a neuristor-based reservoir computing device is also provided.
