Recent advances on filtering and control for nonlinear stochastic complex systems with incomplete information: A survey

This Article is provided by the Brunel Open Access Publishing Fund - Copyright @ 2012 Hindawi PublishingSome recent advances on the filtering and control problems for nonlinear stochastic complex systems with incomplete information are surveyed. The incomplete information under consideration mainly includes missing measurements, randomly varying sensor delays, signal quantization, sensor saturations, and signal sampling. With such incomplete information, the developments on various filtering and control issues are reviewed in great detail. In particular, the addressed nonlinear stochastic complex systems are so comprehensive that they include conventional nonlinear stochastic systems, different kinds of complex networks, and a large class of sensor networks. The corresponding filtering and control technologies for such nonlinear stochastic complex systems are then discussed. Subsequently, some latest results on the filtering and control problems for the complex systems with incomplete information are given. Finally, conclusions are drawn and several possible future research directions are pointed out.This work was supported in part by the National Natural Science Foundation of China under Grant nos. 61134009, 61104125, 61028008, 61174136, 60974030, and 61074129, the Qing Lan Project of Jiangsu Province of China, the Project sponsored by SRF for ROCS of SEM of China, the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council EPSRC of the UK under Grant GR/S27658/01, 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

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

Robust L2 - L∞ filtering for a class of dynamical systems with nonhomogeneous Markov jump process

This paper investigates the problem of robust L2 - L∞ filtering for a class of dynamical systems with nonhomogeneous Markov jump process. The time-varying transition probabilities which evolve as a nonhomogeneous jump process are described by a polytope, and parameter-dependent and mode-dependent Lyapunov function is constructed for such system, and then a robust L2 -L8 filter is designed which guarantees that the resulting error dynamic system is robustly stochasticallystable and satisfies a prescribed L2 - L∞ performance index. A numerical example is given to illustrate the effectiveness of the developed techniques

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

Stability Analysis of Stochastic Markovian Jump Neural Networks with Different Time Scales and Randomly Occurred Nonlinearities Based on Delay-Partitioning Projection Approach

In this paper, the mean square asymptotic stability of stochastic Markovian jump neural networks with different time scales and randomly occurred nonlinearities is investigated. In terms of linear matrix inequality (LMI) approach and delay-partitioning projection technique, delay-dependent stability criteria are derived for the considered neural networks for cases with or without the information of the delay rates via new Lyapunov-Krasovskii functionals. We also obtain that the thinner the delay is partitioned, the more obviously the conservatism can be reduced. An example with simulation results is given to show the effectiveness of the proposed approach

Finite-Time H

This paper investigates the finite-time control problem for discrete-time Markov jump systems subject to saturating actuators. A finite-state Markovian process is given to govern the transition of the jumping parameters. The finite-time H∞ controller via state feedback is designed to guarantee that the resulting system is mean-square locally asymptotically finite-time stabilizable. Based on stochastic finite-time stability analysis, sufficient conditions that ensure stochastic control performance of discrete-time Markov jump systems are derived in the form of linear matrix inequalities. Finally, a numerical example is provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach
