Impulsive control of nonlinear systems with impulse time window and bounded gain error
In this paper, we establish a new sufficient condition for the stability of impulsive systems with impulse time window and bounded gain error. The proposed result is more general and more applicable than some existing results. Finally, a numerical example is given to show the effectiveness of our result
Stability Analysis for Nonlinear Impulsive Control System with Uncertainty Factors.
Considering the limitation of machine and technology, we study the stability for nonlinear impulsive control system with some uncertainty factors, such as the bounded gain error and the parameter uncertainty. A new sufficient condition for this system is established based on the generalized Cauchy-Schwarz inequality in this paper. Compared with some existing results, the proposed method is more practically applicable. The effectiveness of the proposed method is shown by a numerical example
Time-delayed impulsive control for discrete-time nonlinear systems with actuator saturation
This paper focuses on the problem of time-delayed impulsive control with actuator saturation for discrete-time dynamical systems. By establishing a delayed impulsive difference inequality, combining with convex analysis and inequality techniques, some sufficient conditions are obtained to ensure exponential stability for discrete-time dynamical systems via time-delayed impulsive controller with actuator saturation. The designed controller admits the existence of some transmission delays in impulsive feedback law, and the control input variables are required to stay within an availability zone. Several numerical simulations are also given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed results. 
Fixed-time control of delayed neural networks with impulsive perturbations
This paper is concerned with the fixed-time stability of delayed neural networks with impulsive perturbations. By means of inequality analysis technique and Lyapunov function method, some novel fixed-time stability criteria for the addressed neural networks are derived in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). The settling time can be estimated without depending on any initial conditions but only on the designed controllers. In addition, two different controllers are designed for the impulsive delayed neural networks. Moreover, each controller involves three parts, in which each part has different role in the stabilization of the addressed neural networks. Finally, two numerical examples are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the theoretical analysis
Exponential multistability of memristive Cohen-Grossberg neural networks with stochastic parameter perturbations
Ā© 2020 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved. This manuscript is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International Licence http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/.Due to instability being induced easily by parameter disturbances of network systems, this paper investigates the multistability of memristive Cohen-Grossberg neural networks (MCGNNs) under stochastic parameter perturbations. It is demonstrated that stable equilibrium points of MCGNNs can be flexibly located in the odd-sequence or even-sequence regions. Some sufficient conditions are derived to ensure the exponential multistability of MCGNNs under parameter perturbations. It is found that there exist at least (w+2) l (or (w+1) l) exponentially stable equilibrium points in the odd-sequence (or the even-sequence) regions. In the paper, two numerical examples are given to verify the correctness and effectiveness of the obtained results.Peer reviewe
Discrete Time Systems
Discrete-Time Systems comprehend an important and broad research field. The consolidation of digital-based computational means in the present, pushes a technological tool into the field with a tremendous impact in areas like Control, Signal Processing, Communications, System Modelling and related Applications. This book attempts to give a scope in the wide area of Discrete-Time Systems. Their contents are grouped conveniently in sections according to significant areas, namely Filtering, Fixed and Adaptive Control Systems, Stability Problems and Miscellaneous Applications. We think that the contribution of the book enlarges the field of the Discrete-Time Systems with signification in the present state-of-the-art. Despite the vertiginous advance in the field, we also believe that the topics described here allow us also to look through some main tendencies in the next years in the research area
Invariant manifold theory for impulsive functional differential equations with applications
The primary contribution of this thesis is a development of invariant manifold theory for impulsive functional differential equations. We begin with an in-depth analysis of linear systems, immersed in a nonautonomous dynamical systems framework. We prove a variation-of-constants formula, introduce appropriate generalizations of stable, centre and unstable subspaces, and develop a Floquet theory for periodic systems. Using the Lyapunov-Perron method, we prove the existence of local centre manifolds at a nonhyperbolic equilibrium of nonlinear impulsive functional differential equations. Using a formal differentiation procedure in conjunction with machinery from functional analysis -- specifically, contraction mappings on scales of Banach spaces -- we prove that the centre manifold is smooth in the state space. By introducing a coordinate system, we are able to prove that the coefficients of any Taylor expansion of the local centre manifold are unique and sufficiently regular in the time and lag arguments that they can be computed by solving an impulsive boundary-value problem. After proving a reduction principle, this leads naturally to explorations into bifurcation theory, where we establish generalizations of the classical fold and Hopf bifurcations for impulsive delay differential equations. Aside from the centre manifold, we demonstrate the existence and smoothness of stable and unstable manifolds and prove a linearized stability theorem.
One of the applications of the theory above is an analysis of a SIR model with pulsed vaccination and finite temporary immunity modeled by a discrete delay. We determine an analytical stability criteria for the disease-free equilibrium and prove the existence of a transcritical bifurcation of periodic solutions at some critical vaccination coverage level for generic system parameters. Then, using numerical continuation and a monodromy operator discretization scheme, we track the bifurcating endemic periodic solution until a Hopf point is identifed. A cylinder bifurcation is observed; the periodic orbit expands into a cylinder in the extended phase space before eventually contracting onto a periodic orbit as the vaccination coverage vanishes.
The other application is an impulsive stabilization method based on centre manifold reduction and optimization principles. Assuming a cost structure on the impulsive controller and a desired convergence rate target, we prove that under certain conditions there is always an impulsive controller that can stabilize a nonhyperbolic equilibrium with a trivial unstable subspace, robustly with respect to parameter perturbation, while guaranteeing a minimal cost. We then exploit the low-dimensionality of the centre manifold to develop a two-stage program that can be implemented to compute the optimal controller. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the two-stage program, which we call the centre probe method, we use the method to stabilize a complex network of 100 diffusively coupled nodes at a Hopf point. The cost structure is one that assigns higher cost to controlling of nodes that have more neighbours, while the jump functionals are required to be diagonal -- that is, they do not introduce further coupling. We also introduce a secondary goal, which is that the number of nodes that are controlled is minimized

Microarray image processing: A novel neural network framework
This thesis was submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy and awarded by Brunel University.Due to the vast success of bioengineering techniques, a series of large-scale analysis tools has been developed to discover the functional organization of cells. Among them, cDNA microarray has emerged as a powerful technology that enables biologists to cDNA microarray technology has enabled biologists to study thousands of genes simultaneously within an entire organism, and thus obtain a better understanding of the gene interaction and regulation mechanisms involved. Although microarray technology has been developed so as to offer high tolerances, there exists high signal irregularity through the surface of the microarray image. The imperfection in the microarray image generation process causes noises of many types, which contaminate the resulting image. These errors and noises will propagate down through, and can significantly affect, all subsequent processing and analysis. Therefore, to realize the potential of such technology it is crucial to obtain high quality image data that would indeed reflect the underlying biology in the samples. One of the key steps in extracting information from a microarray image is segmentation: identifying which pixels within an image represent which gene. This area of spotted microarray image analysis has received relatively little attention relative to the advances in proceeding analysis stages. But, the lack of advanced image analysis, including the segmentation, results in sub-optimal data being used in all downstream analysis methods.
Although there is recently much research on microarray image analysis with many methods have been proposed, some methods produce better results than others. In general, the most effective approaches require considerable run time (processing) power to process an entire image. Furthermore, there has been little progress on developing sufficiently fast yet efficient and effective algorithms the segmentation of the microarray image by using a highly sophisticated framework such as Cellular Neural Networks (CNNs). It is, therefore, the aim of this thesis to investigate and develop novel methods processing microarray images. The goal is to produce results that outperform the currently available approaches in terms of PSNR, k-means and ICC measurements.Aleppo University, Syri
