Non-fragile state estimation for discrete Markovian jumping neural networks

In this paper, the non-fragile state estimation problem is investigated for a class of discrete-time neural networks subject to Markovian jumping parameters and time delays. In terms of a Markov chain, the mode switching phenomenon at different times is considered in both the parameters and the discrete delays of the neural networks. To account for the possible gain variations occurring in the implementation, the gain of the estimator is assumed to be perturbed by multiplicative norm-bounded uncertainties. We aim to design a non-fragile state estimator such that, in the presence of all admissible gain variations, the estimation error converges to zero exponentially. By adopting the Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional and the stochastic analysis theory, sufficient conditions are established to ensure the existence of the desired state estimator that guarantees the stability of the overall estimation error dynamics. The explicit expression of such estimators is parameterized by solving a convex optimization problem via the semi-definite programming method. A numerical simulation example is provided to verify the usefulness of the proposed methods

Dissipativity analysis for discrete time-delay fuzzy neural networks with Markovian jumps

This paper is concerned with the dissipativity analysis and design of discrete Markovian jumping neural networks with sector-bounded nonlinear activation functions and time-varying delays represented by Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy model. The augmented fuzzy neural networks with Markovian jumps are first constructed based on estimator of Luenberger observer type. Then, applying piecewise Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional approach and stochastic analysis technique, a sufficient condition is provided to guarantee that the augmented fuzzy jump neural networks are stochastically dissipative. Moreover, a less conservative criterion is established to solve the dissipative state estimation problem by using matrix decomposition approach. Furthermore, to reduce the computational complexity of the algorithm, a dissipative estimator is designed to ensure stochastic dissipativity of the error fuzzy jump neural networks. As a special case, we have also considered the mixed H∞ and passive analysis of fuzzy jump neural networks. All criteria can be formulated in terms of linear matrix inequalities. Finally, two examples are given to show the effectiveness and potential of the new design techniques.Yingqi Zhang, Peng Shi, Ramesh K. Agarwal, and Yan Sh

Parameters identification of unknown delayed genetic regulatory networks by a switching particle swarm optimization algorithm

The official published version can be found at the link below.This paper presents a novel particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm based on Markov chains and competitive penalized method. Such an algorithm is developed to solve global optimization problems with applications in identifying unknown parameters of a class of genetic regulatory networks (GRNs). By using an evolutionary factor, a new switching PSO (SPSO) algorithm is first proposed and analyzed, where the velocity updating equation jumps from one mode to another according to a Markov chain, and acceleration coefficients are dependent on mode switching. Furthermore, a leader competitive penalized multi-learning approach (LCPMLA) is introduced to improve the global search ability and refine the convergent solutions. The LCPMLA can automatically choose search strategy using a learning and penalizing mechanism. The presented SPSO algorithm is compared with some well-known PSO algorithms in the experiments. It is shown that the SPSO algorithm has faster local convergence speed, higher accuracy and algorithm reliability, resulting in better balance between the global and local searching of the algorithm, and thus generating good performance. Finally, we utilize the presented SPSO algorithm to identify not only the unknown parameters but also the coupling topology and time-delay of a class of GRNs.This research was partially supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of PR China (Grant No. 60874113), the Research Fund for the Doctoral Program of Higher Education (Grant No. 200802550007), the Key Creative Project of Shanghai Education Community (Grant No. 09ZZ66), the Key Foundation Project of Shanghai (Grant No. 09JC1400700), the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council EPSRC of the UK under Grant No. GR/S27658/01, the International Science and Technology Cooperation Project of China under Grant No. 2009DFA32050, an International Joint Project sponsored by the Royal Society of the UK, and the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation of Germany

Stability and dissipativity analysis of static neural networks with time delay

This paper is concerned with the problems of stability and dissipativity analysis for static neural networks (NNs) with time delay. Some improved delay-dependent stability criteria are established for static NNs with time-varying or time-invariant delay using the delay partitioning technique. Based on these criteria, several delay-dependent sufficient conditions are given to guarantee the dissipativity of static NNs with time delay. All the given results in this paper are not only dependent upon the time delay but also upon the number of delay partitions. Some examples are given to illustrate the effectiveness and reduced conservatism of the proposed results.published_or_final_versio

Adaptive Control

Adaptive control has been a remarkable field for industrial and academic research since 1950s. Since more and more adaptive algorithms are applied in various control applications, it is becoming very important for practical implementation. As it can be confirmed from the increasing number of conferences and journals on adaptive control topics, it is certain that the adaptive control is a significant guidance for technology development.The authors the chapters in this book are professionals in their areas and their recent research results are presented in this book which will also provide new ideas for improved performance of various control application problems
