A neural network for solving a convex quadratic bilevel programming problem

A neural network is proposed for solving a convex quadratic bilevel programming problem. Based on Lyapunov and LaSalle theories, we prove strictly an important theoretical result that, for an arbitrary initial point, the trajectory of the proposed network does converge to the equilibrium, which corresponds to the optimal solution of a convex quadratic bilevel programming problem. Numerical simulation results show that the proposed neural network is feasible and efficient for a convex quadratic bilevel programming problem.

Finally, several examplesand numerical simulations are given to illustrate and reinforce our theories.

Stability analysis for periodic solution of BAM neural networks with discontinuous neuron activations and impulses

In this paper, we present a general class of BAM neural networks with discontinuous neuron activations and impulses. By using the fixed point theorem in differential inclusions theory, we investigate the existence of periodic solution for this neural network. By constructing the suitable Lyapunov function, we give a sufficient condition which ensures the uniqueness and global exponential stability of the periodic solution. The results of this paper show that the Forti’s conjecture is true for BAM neural networks with discontinuous neuron activations and impulses. Further, a numerical example is given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the results obtained in this paper.     

Global exponential stability and global attractivity of impulsive Hopfield neural networks with time delays

In this paper, by means of constructing the extended impulsive delayed Halanay inequality and by Lyapunov functional methods, we analyze the global exponential stability and global attractivity of impulsive Hopfield neural networks with time delays. Some new sufficient conditions ensuring exponential stability of the unique equilibrium point of impulsive Hopfield neural networks with time delays are obtained. Those conditions are more feasible than that given in the earlier references to some extent. Some numerical examples are also discussed in this work to illustrate the advantage of the results we obtained.     

Stability analysis for neural networks with inverse Lipschitzian neuron activations and impulses

In this paper, a new concept called α-inverse Lipschitz function is introduced. Based on the topological degree theory and Lyapunov functional method, we investigate global convergence for a novel class of neural networks with impulses where the neuron activations belong to the class of α-inverse Lipschitz functions. Some sufficient conditions are derived which ensure the existence, and global exponential stability of the equilibrium point of neural networks. Furthermore, we give two results which are used to check the stability of uncertain neural networks. Finally, two numerical examples are given to demonstrate the effectiveness of results obtained in this paper.

The result is easy to check and plays an important role in the design and applications of globally exponentially stable fuzzy neural circuits. Finally, the utility of our result is illustrated via a numerical example.     

A dynamical model for solving degenerate quadratic minimax problems with constraints

This paper presents a new neural network model for solving degenerate quadratic minimax (DQM) problems. On the basis of the saddle point theorem, optimization theory, convex analysis theory, Lyapunov stability theory and LaSalle invariance principle, the equilibrium point of the proposed network is proved to be equivalent to the optimal solution of the DQM problems. It is also shown that the proposed network model is stable in the sense of Lyapunov and it is globally convergent to an exact optimal solution of the original problem. Several illustrative examples are provided to show the feasibility and the efficiency of the proposed method in this paper.

A simplified recurrent neural network for pseudoconvex optimization subject to linear equality constraints

In this paper, the optimization techniques for solving pseudoconvex optimization problems are investigated. A simplified recurrent neural network is proposed according to the optimization problem. We prove that the optimal solution of the optimization problem is just the equilibrium point of the neural network, and vice versa if the equilibrium point satisfies the linear constraints. The proposed neural network is proven to be globally stable in the sense of Lyapunov and convergent to an exact optimal solution of the optimization problem. A numerical simulation is given to illustrate the global convergence of the neural network. Applications in business and chemistry are given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the neural network.
