State estimation for discrete-time neural networks with Markov-mode-dependent lower and upper bounds on the distributed delays
Copyright @ 2012 Springer VerlagThis paper is concerned with the state estimation problem for a new class of discrete-time neural networks with Markovian jumping parameters and mixed time-delays. The parameters of the neural networks under consideration switch over time subject to a Markov chain. The networks involve both the discrete-time-varying delay and the mode-dependent distributed time-delay characterized by the upper and lower boundaries dependent on the Markov chain. By constructing novel Lyapunov-Krasovskii functionals, sufficient conditions are firstly established to guarantee the exponential stability in mean square for the addressed discrete-time neural networks with Markovian jumping parameters and mixed time-delays. Then, the state estimation problem is coped with for the same neural network where the goal is to design a desired state estimator such that the estimation error approaches zero exponentially in mean square. The derived conditions for both the stability and the existence of desired estimators are expressed in the form of matrix inequalities that can be solved by the semi-definite programme method. A numerical simulation example is exploited to demonstrate the usefulness of the main results obtained.This work was supported in part by the Royal Society of the U.K., the National Natural Science Foundation of China under Grants 60774073 and 61074129, and the Natural Science Foundation of Jiangsu Province of China under Grant BK2010313
On input-to-state stability of stochastic retarded systems with Markovian switching
This note develops a Razumikhin-type theorem on pth moment input-to-state stability of hybrid stochastic retarded systems (also known as stochastic retarded systems with Markovian switching), which is an improvement of an existing result. An application to hybrid stochastic delay systems verifies the effectiveness of the improved result
Almost surely asymptotic stability of neutral stochastic differential delay equations with Markovian switching
The main aim of this paper is to discuss the almost surely asymptotic stability of the neutral stochastic differential delay equations (NSDDEs) with Markovian switching. Linear NSDDEs with Markovian switching and nonlinear examples will be discussed to illustrate the theory
Synchronization of coupled neutral-type neural networks with jumping-mode-dependent discrete and unbounded distributed delays
This is the post-print version of the Article. The official published version can be accessed from the links below - Copyright @ 2013 IEEE.In this paper, the synchronization problem is studied for an array of N identical delayed neutral-type neural networks with Markovian jumping parameters. The coupled networks involve both the mode-dependent discrete-time delays and the mode-dependent unbounded distributed time delays. All the network parameters including the coupling matrix are also dependent on the Markovian jumping mode. By introducing novel Lyapunov-Krasovskii functionals and using some analytical techniques, sufficient conditions are derived to guarantee that the coupled networks are asymptotically synchronized in mean square. The derived sufficient conditions are closely related with the discrete-time delays, the distributed time delays, the mode transition probability, and the coupling structure of the networks. The obtained criteria are given in terms of matrix inequalities that can be efficiently solved by employing the semidefinite program method. Numerical simulations are presented to further demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.This work was supported in part by the Royal Society of the U.K., the National Natural Science Foundation of China under Grants 61074129, 61174136 and 61134009, and the Natural Science Foundation of Jiangsu Province of China under Grants BK2010313 and BK2011598
Exponential Stabilisation of Continuous-time Periodic Stochastic Systems by Feedback Control Based on Periodic Discrete-time Observations
Since Mao in 2013 discretised the system observations for stabilisation problem of hybrid SDEs (stochastic differential equations with Markovian switching) by feedback control, the study of this topic using a constant observation frequency has been further developed. However, time-varying observation frequencies have not been considered. Particularly, an observational more efficient way is to consider the time-varying property of the system and observe a periodic SDE system at the periodic time-varying frequencies. This study investigates how to stabilise a periodic hybrid SDE by a periodic feedback control, based on periodic discrete-time observations. This study provides sufficient conditions under which the controlled system can achieve pth moment exponential stability for p > 1 and almost sure exponential stability. Lyapunov's method and inequalities are main tools for derivation and analysis. The existence of observation interval sequences is verified and one way of its calculation is provided. Finally, an example is given for illustration. Their new techniques not only reduce observational cost by reducing observation frequency dramatically but also offer flexibility on system observation settings. This study allows readers to set observation frequencies according to their needs to some extent
Boundedness and stability of highly nonlinear neutral stochastic systems with multiple delays
This paper reports the boundedness and stability of highly nonlinear hybrid neutral stochastic differential delay equations (NSDDEs) with multiple delays. Without imposing linear growth condition, the boundedness and exponential stability of the exact solution are investigated by Lyapunov functional method. In particular, using the M-matrix technique, the mean square exponential stability is obtained. Finally, three examples are presented to verify our results
Optimal Energy Management Policies for Energy Harvesting Sensor Nodes
We study a sensor node with an energy harvesting source. The generated energy
can be stored in a buffer. The sensor node periodically senses a random field
and generates a packet. These packets are stored in a queue and transmitted
using the energy available at that time. We obtain energy management policies
that are throughput optimal, i.e., the data queue stays stable for the largest
possible data rate. Next we obtain energy management policies which minimize
the mean delay in the queue.We also compare performance of several easily
implementable sub-optimal energy management policies. A greedy policy is
identified which, in low SNR regime, is throughput optimal and also minimizes
mean delay.Comment: Submitted to the IEEE Transactions on Wireless Communications; 22

Stability Analysis for Markovian Jump Neutral Systems with Mixed Delays and Partially Known Transition Rates
The delay-dependent stability problem is studied for Markovian jump neutral systems with partial information on transition probabilities, and the considered delays are mixed and model dependent. By constructing the new stochastic Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional, which combined the introduced free matrices with the analysis technique of matrix inequalities, a sufficient condition for the systems with fully known transition rates is
firstly established. Then, making full use of the transition rate matrix, the results are obtained for the other case, and the uncertain neutral Markovian jump system with incomplete transition rates is also considered. Finally, to show the validity of the obtained results, three numerical examples are provided
Brownian Molecules Formed by Delayed Harmonic Interactions
A time-delayed response of individual living organisms to information
exchanged within flocks or swarms leads to the emergence of complex collective
behaviors. A recent experimental setup by (Khadka et al 2018 Nat. Commun. 9
3864), employing synthetic microswimmers, allows to emulate and study such
behavior in a controlled way, in the lab. Motivated by these experiments, we
study a system of N Brownian particles interacting via a retarded harmonic
interaction. For , we characterize its collective behavior
analytically, by solving the pertinent stochastic delay-differential equations,
and for by Brownian dynamics simulations. The particles form
molecule-like non-equilibrium structures which become unstable with increasing
number of particles, delay time, and interaction strength. We evaluate the
entropy and information fluxes maintaining these structures and, to
quantitatively characterize their stability, develop an approximate
time-dependent transition-state theory to characterize transitions between
different isomers of the molecules. For completeness, we include a
comprehensive discussion of the analytical solution procedure for systems of
linear stochastic delay differential equations in finite dimension, and new
results for covariance and time-correlation matrices.Comment: 36 pages, 26 figures, current version: further improvements and one
