Global exponential synchronization of quaternion-valued memristive neural networks with time delays

This paper extends the memristive neural networks (MNNs) to quaternion field, a new class of neural networks named quaternion-valued memristive neural networks (QVMNNs) is then established, and the problem of drive-response global synchronization of this type of networks is investigated in this paper. Two cases are taken into consideration: one is with the conventional differential inclusion assumption, the other without. Criteria for the global synchronization of these two cases are achieved respectively by appropriately choosing the Lyapunov functional and applying some inequality techniques. Finally, corresponding simulation examples are presented to demonstrate the correctness of the proposed results derived in this paper

Exponential synchronization for second-order switched quaternion-valued neural networks with neutral-type and mixed time-varying delays

This article focuses on the global exponential synchronization (GES) for second-order state-dependent switched quaternion-valued neural networks (SOSDSQVNNs) with neutral-type and mixed delays. By proposing some new Lyapunov–Krasovskii functionals (LKFs) and adopting some inequalities, several new criteria in the shape of algebraic inequalities are proposed to ensure the GES for the concerned system by using hybrid switched controllers (HSCs). Different from the common reducing order and separation ways, this article presents some new LKFs to straightway discuss the GES of the concerned system based on non-reduction order and nonseparation strategies. Ultimately, an example is provided to validate the effectiveness of the theoretical outcomes

Global stability of Clifford-valued Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy neural networks with time-varying delays and impulses

summary:In this study, we consider the Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy model to examine the global asymptotic stability of Clifford-valued neural networks with time-varying delays and impulses. In order to achieve the global asymptotic stability criteria, we design a general network model that includes quaternion-, complex-, and real-valued networks as special cases. First, we decompose the $n$-dimensional Clifford-valued neural network into $2^mn$-dimensional real-valued counterparts in order to solve the noncommutativity of Clifford numbers multiplication. Then, we prove the new global asymptotic stability criteria by constructing an appropriate Lyapunov-Krasovskii functionals (LKFs) and employing Jensen's integral inequality together with the reciprocal convex combination method. All the results are proven using linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Finally, a numerical example is provided to show the effectiveness of the achieved results

Finite-time stabilization for fractional-order inertial neural networks with time varying delays

This paper deals with the finite-time stabilization of fractional-order inertial neural network with varying time-delays (FOINNs). Firstly, by correctly selected variable substitution, the system is transformed into a first-order fractional differential equation. Secondly, by building Lyapunov functionalities and using analytical techniques, as well as new control algorithms (which include the delay-dependent and delay-free controller), novel and effective criteria are established to attain the finite-time stabilization of the addressed system. Finally, two examples are used to illustrate the effectiveness and feasibility of the obtained results

Synchronization of Clifford-valued neural networks with leakage, time-varying, and infinite distributed delays on time scales

Neural networks (NNs) with values in multidimensional domains have lately attracted the attention of researchers. Thus, complex-valued neural networks (CVNNs), quaternion-valued neural networks (QVNNs), and their generalization, Clifford-valued neural networks (ClVNNs) have been proposed in the last few years, and different dynamic properties were studied for them. On the other hand, time scale calculus has been proposed in order to jointly study the properties of continuous time and discrete time systems, or any hybrid combination between the two, and was also successfully applied to the domain of NNs. Finally, in real implementations of NNs, time delays occur inevitably. Taking all these facts into account, this paper discusses ClVNNs defined on time scales with leakage, time-varying delays, and infinite distributed delays, a type of delays which have been relatively rarely present in the existing literature. A state feedback control scheme and a generalization of the Halanay inequality for time scales are used in order to obtain sufficient conditions expressed as algebraic inequalities and as linear matrix inequalities (LMIs), using two general Lyapunov-like functions, for the exponential synchronization of the proposed model. Two numerical examples are given in order to illustrate the theoretical results

New results of global Mittag-Leffler synchronization on Caputo fuzzy delayed inertial neural networks

This article is devoted to discussing the problem of global Mittag-Leffler synchronization (GMLS) for the Caputo-type fractional-order fuzzy delayed inertial neural networks (FOFINNs). First of all, both inertial and fuzzy terms are taken into account in the system. For the sake of reducing the influence caused by the inertia term, the order reduction is achieved by the measure of variable substitution. The introduction of fuzzy terms can evade fuzziness or uncertainty as much as possible. Subsequently, a nonlinear delayed controller is designed to achieve GMLS. Utilizing the inequality techniques, Lyapunov’s direct method for functions and Razumikhin theorem, the criteria for interpreting the GMLS of FOFINNs are established. Particularly, two inferences are presented in two special cases. Additionally, the availability of the acquired results are further confirmed by simulations

SATURATED AND ASYMMETRIC SATURATED IMPULSIVE CONTROL SYNCHRONIZATION OF COUPLED DELAYED INERTIAL NEURAL NETWORKS WITH TIME-VARYING DELAYS

This paper considers control systems with impulses that are saturated and asymmetrically saturated which are used to examine the synchronization of inertial neural networks (INNs) with time-varying delay and coupling delays. Under the theoretical discussions, mixed delays, such as transmission delay and coupling delay are presented for inertial neural networks. The addressed INNs are transformed into first order differential equations utilizing variable transformation on INNs and then certain adequate conditions are derived for the exponential synchronization of the addressed model by substituting saturation nonlinearity with a dead-zone function. In addition, an asymmetric saturated impulsive control approach is given to realize the exponential synchronization of addressed INNs in the leader-following synchronization pattern. Finally, simulation results are used to validate the theoretical research findings
