Mittag–Leffler synchronization for impulsive fractional-order bidirectional associative memory neural networks via optimal linear feedback control

In this paper, we are concerned with the synchronization scheme for fractional-order bidirectional associative memory (BAM) neural networks, where both synaptic transmission delay and impulsive effect are considered. By constructing Lyapunov functional, sufficient conditions are established to ensure the Mittag–Leffler synchronization. Based on Pontryagin’s maximum principle with delay, time-dependent control gains are obtained, which minimize the accumulative errors within the limitation of actuator saturation during the Mittag–Leffler synchronization. Numerical simulations are carried out to illustrate the feasibility and effectiveness of theoretical results with the help of the modified predictor-corrector algorithm and the forward-backward sweep method

Mittag-Leffler stability analysis of fractional discrete-time neural networks via fixed point technique

A class of semilinear fractional difference equations is introduced in this paper. The fixed point theorem is adopted to find stability conditions for fractional difference equations. The complete solution space is constructed and the contraction mapping is established by use of new equivalent sum equations in form of a discrete Mittag-Leffler function of two parameters. As one of the application, finite-time stability is discussed and compared. Attractivity of fractional difference equations is proved, and Mittag-Leffler stability conditions are provided. Finally, the stability results are applied to fractional discrete-time neural networks with and without delay, which show the fixed point technique’s efficiency and convenience

Mittag-Leffler state estimator design and synchronization analysis for fractional order BAM neural networks with time delays

This paper deals with the extended design of Mittag-Leffler state estimator and adaptive synchronization for fractional order BAM neural networks (FBNNs) with time delays. By the aid of Lyapunov direct approach and Razumikhin-type method a suitable fractional order Lyapunov functional is constructed and a new set of novel sufficient condition are derived to estimate the neuron states via available output measurements such that the ensuring estimator error system is globally Mittag-Leffler stable. Then, the adaptive feedback control rule is designed, under which the considered FBNNs can achieve Mittag-Leffler adaptive synchronization by means of some fractional order inequality techniques. Moreover, the adaptive feedback control may be utilized even when there is no ideal information from the system parameters. Finally, two numerical simulations are given to reveal the effectiveness of the theoretical consequences.N/

Robust generalized Mittag-Leffler synchronization of fractional order neural networks with discontinuous activation and impulses.

Fractional order system is playing an increasingly important role in terms of both theory and applications. In this paper we investigate the global existence of Filippov solutions and the robust generalized Mittag-Leffler synchronization of fractional order neural networks with discontinuous activation and impulses. By means of growth conditions, differential inclusions and generalized Gronwall inequality, a sufficient condition for the existence of Filippov solution is obtained. Then, sufficient criteria are given for the robust generalized Mittag-Leffler synchronization between discontinuous activation function of impulsive fractional order neural network systems with (or without) parameter uncertainties, via a delayed feedback controller and M-Matrix theory. Finally, four numerical simulations demonstrate the effectiveness of our main results.N/

Exponential stabilization of fractional-order continuous-time dynamic systems via event-triggered impulsive control

Exponential stabilization of fractional-order continuous-time dynamic systems via eventtriggered impulsive control (EIC) approach is investigated in this paper. Nonlinear and linear fractional-order continuous-time dynamic systems are studied, respectively. The impulsive instants are determined by some given event-triggering function and event-triggering condition, which are dependent on the state of the systems. Sufficient conditions on exponential stabilization for nonlinear and linear cases are presented, respectively. Moreover, the Zeno-behavior of impulsive instants is excluded. Finally, the validity of theoretical results are also illustrated by some numerical simulation examples including the synchronization control of fractional-order jerk chaotic system

Synchronization analysis of coupled fractional-order neural networks with time-varying delays

In this paper, the complete synchronization and Mittag-Leffler synchronization problems of a kind of coupled fractional-order neural networks with time-varying delays are introduced and studied. First, the sufficient conditions for a controlled system to reach complete synchronization are established by using the Kronecker product technique and Lyapunov direct method under pinning control. Here the pinning controller only needs to control part of the nodes, which can save more resources. To make the system achieve complete synchronization, only the error system is stable. Next, a new adaptive feedback controller is designed, which combines the Razumikhin-type method and Mittag-Leffler stability theory to make the controlled system realize Mittag-Leffler synchronization. The controller has time delays, and the calculation can be simplified by constructing an appropriate auxiliary function. Finally, two numerical examples are given. The simulation process shows that the conditions of the main theorems are not difficult to obtain, and the simulation results confirm the feasibility of the theorems

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
