On the validity of memristor modeling in the neural network literature
An analysis of the literature shows that there are two types of
non-memristive models that have been widely used in the modeling of so-called
"memristive" neural networks. Here, we demonstrate that such models have
nothing in common with the concept of memristive elements: they describe either
non-linear resistors or certain bi-state systems, which all are devices without
memory. Therefore, the results presented in a significant number of
publications are at least questionable, if not completely irrelevant to the
actual field of memristive neural networks
Chimera states: Coexistence of coherence and incoherence in networks of coupled oscillators
A chimera state is a spatio-temporal pattern in a network of identical
coupled oscillators in which synchronous and asynchronous oscillation coexist.
This state of broken symmetry, which usually coexists with a stable spatially
symmetric state, has intrigued the nonlinear dynamics community since its
discovery in the early 2000s. Recent experiments have led to increasing
interest in the origin and dynamics of these states. Here we review the history
of research on chimera states and highlight major advances in understanding
their behaviour.Comment: 26 pages, 3 figure
Exponential multistability of memristive Cohen-Grossberg neural networks with stochastic parameter perturbations
© 2020 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved. This manuscript is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International Licence http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/.Due to instability being induced easily by parameter disturbances of network systems, this paper investigates the multistability of memristive Cohen-Grossberg neural networks (MCGNNs) under stochastic parameter perturbations. It is demonstrated that stable equilibrium points of MCGNNs can be flexibly located in the odd-sequence or even-sequence regions. Some sufficient conditions are derived to ensure the exponential multistability of MCGNNs under parameter perturbations. It is found that there exist at least (w+2) l (or (w+1) l) exponentially stable equilibrium points in the odd-sequence (or the even-sequence) regions. In the paper, two numerical examples are given to verify the correctness and effectiveness of the obtained results.Peer reviewe
