Finite time Synchronization of Inertial Memristive Neural Networks with Time Varying Delay

Finite time synchronization control of inertial memristor-based neural networks with varying delay is considered. In view of drive and response concept, the sufficient conditions to ensure finite time synchronization issue of inertial memristive neural networks is given. Based on Lyapunov finite time asymptotic theory, a kind of feedback controllers is designed for inertial memristorbased neural networks to realize the finite time synchronization. Based on Lyapunov stability theory, close loop error system can be proved finite time and fixed time stable. Finally, illustrative example is given to illustrate the effectiveness of theoretical results

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

Stability and pinning synchronization analysis of fractional order delayed Cohen–Grossberg neural networks with discontinuous activations

This article, we explore the asymptotic stability and asymptotic synchronization analysis of fractional order delayed Cohen–Grossberg neural networks with discontinuous neuron activation functions (FCGNNDDs). First, under the framework of Filippov theory and differ- ential inclusion theoretical analysis, the global existence of Filippov solution for FCGNNDDs is studied by means of the given growth condition. Second, by virtue of suitable Lyapunov functional, Young inequality and comparison theorem for fractional order delayed linear system, some global asymptotic stability conditions for such system is derived by limiting discontinuous neuron activations. Third, the global asymptotic synchronization condition for FCGNNDDs is obtained based on the pinning control. At last, two numerical simula- tions are given to verify the theoretical findings.N/

Multi-weighted complex structure on fractional order coupled neural networks with linear coupling delay: a robust synchronization problem

This sequel is concerned with the analysis of robust synchronization for a multi-weighted complex structure on fractional-order coupled neural networks (MWCFCNNs) with linear coupling delays via state feedback controller. Firstly, by means of fractional order comparison principle, suitable Lyapunov method, Kronecker product technique, some famous inequality techniques about fractional order calculus and the basis of interval parameter method, two improved robust asymptotical synchronization analysis, both algebraic method and LMI method, respectively are established via state feedback controller. Secondly, when the parameter uncertainties are ignored, several synchronization criterion are also given to ensure the global asymptotical synchronization of considered MWCFCNNs. Moreover, two type of special cases for global asymptotical synchronization MWCFCNNs with and without linear coupling delays, respectively are investigated. Ultimately, the accuracy and feasibility of obtained synchronization criteria are supported by the given two numerical computer simulations.This article has been written with the joint financial support of RUSA-Phase 2.0 grant sanctioned vide letter No.F 24-51/2014-U, Policy (TN Multi-Gen), Dept. of Edn.

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

Finite-time lag projective synchronization of delayed fractional-order quaternion-valued neural networks with parameter uncertainties

This paper discusses a class issue of finite-time lag projective synchronization (FTLPS) of delayed fractional-order quaternion-valued neural networks (FOQVNNs) with parameter uncertainties, which is solved by a non-decomposition method. Firstly, a new delayed FOQVNNs model with uncertain parameters is designed. Secondly, two types of feedback controller and adaptive controller without sign functions are designed in the quaternion domain. Based on the Lyapunov analysis method, the non-decomposition method is applied to replace the decomposition method that requires complex calculations, combined with some quaternion inequality techniques, to accurately estimate the settling time of FTLPS. Finally, the correctness of the obtained theoretical results is testified by a numerical simulation example

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

Nonlinear Systems

Open Mathematics is a challenging notion for theoretical modeling, technical analysis, and numerical simulation in physics and mathematics, as well as in many other fields, as highly correlated nonlinear phenomena, evolving over a large range of time scales and length scales, control the underlying systems and processes in their spatiotemporal evolution. Indeed, available data, be they physical, biological, or financial, and technologically complex systems and stochastic systems, such as mechanical or electronic devices, can be managed from the same conceptual approach, both analytically and through computer simulation, using effective nonlinear dynamics methods. The aim of this Special Issue is to highlight papers that show the dynamics, control, optimization and applications of nonlinear systems. This has recently become an increasingly popular subject, with impressive growth concerning applications in engineering, economics, biology, and medicine, and can be considered a veritable contribution to the literature.
