Exponential synchronization of stochastic fuzzy cellular neural networks with time delay in the leakage term and reaction-diffusion

Separate studies have been published on the stability of fuzzy cellular neural networks with time delay in the leakage term and synchronization issue of coupled chaotic neural networks with stochastic perturbation and reaction-diffusion effects. However, there have not been studies that integrate the two fields. Motivated by the achievements from both fields, this paper considers the exponential synchronization problem of coupled chaotic fuzzy cellular neural networks with stochastic noise perturbation, time delay in the leakage term and reaction-diffusion effects using linear feedback control. Lyapunov stability theory combining with stochastic analysis approaches are employed to derive sufficient criteria ensuring the coupled chaotic fuzzy neural networks to be exponentially synchronized. This paper also presents an illustrative example and uses simulated results of this example to show the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed scheme.     

Stochastic exponential synchronization of jumping chaotic neural networks with mixed delays

This paper deals with the exponential synchronization problem for a class of stochastic jumping chaotic neural networks with mixed delays and sector bounded nonlinearities. The mixed time delays under consideration comprise both discrete time-varying delays and distributed time delays. By applying the Finsler’s Lemma and constructing appropriate Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional based on delay partitioning, several improved delay-dependent feedback controllers with sector nonlinearities are developed to achieve the synchronization in mean square in terms of linear matrix inequalities. It is established theoretically that two special cases of the obtained criteria are less conservative than some existing results but including fewer slack variables. As the present conditions involve no free weighting matrices, the computational burden is largely reduced. One numerical example is provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results.     

Exponential stability for stochastic reaction-diffusion BAM neural networks with time-varying and distributed delays

In this paper we study the stability for a class of stochastic bidirectional associative memory (BAM) neural networks with reaction-diffusion and mixed delays. The mixed delays considered in this paper are time-varying and distributed delays. Based on a new Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional and the Poincaré inequality as well as stochastic analysis theory, a set of novel sufficient conditions are obtained to guarantee the stochastically exponential stability of the trivial solution or zero solution. The obtained results show that the reaction-diffusion term does contribute to the exponentially stabilization of the considered system. Moreover, two numerical examples are given to show the effectiveness of the theoretical results.

Two numerical examples are included to show the effectiveness of proposed criteria.     

Synchronization of non-identical chaotic delayed fuzzy cellular neural networks based on sliding mode control

-In this paper, we investigate the synchronization problems of chaotic fuzzy cellular neural networks with time-varying delays.

This research demonstrates the effectiveness of application in secure communication. Numerical simulations are carried out to illustrate the main results.

Exponential stability for stochastic BAM networks with discrete and distributed delays

In this paper, we investigate exponential stability for stochastic BAM networks with mixed delays. The mixed delays include discrete and distributed time-delays. The purpose of this paper is to establish some criteria to ensure the delayed stochastic BAM neural networks are exponential stable in the mean square. A sufficient condition is established by consructing suitable Lyapunov functionals. The condition is expressed in terms of the feasibility to a couple LMIs. Therefore, the exponential stability of the stochastic BAM networks with discrete and distributed delays can be easily checked by using the numerically efficient Matlab LMI toobox. A simple example is given to demonstrate the usefulness of the derived LMI-based stability conditions.     

synchronization of coupled reaction‐diffusion neural networks with mixed delays

The reaction‐diffusion neural network is often described by semilinear diffusion partial differential equation (PDE). This article focuses on the asymptotical synchronization and synchronization for coupled reaction‐diffusion neural networks with mixed delays (that is, discrete and infinite distributed delays) and Dirichlet boundary condition. First, using the Lyapunov–Krasoviskii functional scheme, the sufficient condition is obtained for the asymptotical synchronization of coupled semilinear diffusion PDEs with mixed time‐delays and this condition is represented by linear matrix inequalities (LMIs), which is easy to be solved. Then the robust synchronization is considered in temporal‐spatial domain for the coupled semilinear diffusion PDEs with mixed delays and external disturbances. In terms of the technique of completing squares, the sufficient condition is obtained for the robust synchronization. Finally, a numerical example of coupled semilinear diffusion PDEs with mixed time‐delays is given to illustrate the correctness of the obtained results. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Master-slave synchronization of neural networks with time-varying delays via the event-triggered control

ABSTRACT

This paper investigates the problem of master-slave synchronization of neural networks with time-varying delays via the event-triggered control (ETC). First, the proposed ETC can effectively reduce the total amount of data transmitted to the controller in the synchronization process and avoid communication channel congestion. Second, a master-slave synchronization of neural networks with time-varying delays is constructed, where delays within neural networks and the ETC are simultaneous existence. The controller is updated by the ETC. By the Lyapunov stability theory, some sufficient criteria are obtained to ensure master-slave synchronization of neural networks. Finally, a numerical example and a tunnel diode circuit example are used to verify the validity of results obtained.     

Convergence dynamics of stochastic reaction–diffusion recurrent neural networks with continuously distributed delays

Convergence dynamics of reaction–diffusion recurrent neural networks (RNNs) with continuously distributed delays and stochastic influence are considered. Some sufficient conditions to guarantee the almost sure exponential stability, mean value exponential stability and mean square exponential stability of an equilibrium solution are obtained, respectively. Lyapunov functional method, M-matrix properties, some inequality technique and nonnegative semimartingale convergence theorem are used in our approach. These criteria ensuring the different exponential stability show that diffusion and delays are harmless, but random fluctuations are important, in the stochastic continuously distributed delayed reaction–diffusion RNNs with the structure satisfying the criteria. Two examples are also given to demonstrate our results.

The obtained LMIs can be easily solved by any of the available software. Finally, the numerical examples are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of our theoretical results.     

Adaptive synchronization of Cohen-Grossberg neural networks with unknown parameters and mixed time-varying delays

In this paper, we investigate the synchronization problem of chaotic Cohen-Grossberg neural networks with unknown parameters and mixed time-varying delays. An adaptive linear feedback controller is designed to guarantee that the response system can be synchronized with a drive system by utilizing Lyapunov stability theory and parameter identification. Our synchronization criteria are easily verified and do not need to solve any linear matrix inequality. These results generalize a few previous known results and remove some restrictions on amplification function and time delay. This research also demonstrates the effectiveness of application in secure communication. Numerical simulations are carried out to illustrate the main results.

On exponential stability analysis for neural networks with time-varying delays and general activation functions

This paper is concerned with the exponential stability analysis for a class of cellular neural networks with both interval time-varying delays and general activation functions. The boundedness assumption of the activation function is not required. The limitation on the derivative of time delay being less than one is relaxed and the lower bound of time-varying delay is not restricted to be zero. A new Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional involving more information on the state variables is established to derive a novel exponential stability criterion. The obtained condition shows potential advantages over the existing ones since no useful item is ignored throughout the estimate of upper bound of the derivative of Lyapunov functional. Finally, three numerical examples are included to illustrate the proposed design procedures and applications.

Finally, a numerical example is given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed result.
