Almost periodic solutions of retarded SICNNs with functional response on piecewise constant argument

We consider a new model for shunting inhibitory cellular neural networks, retarded functional differential equations with piecewise constant argument. The existence and exponential stability of almost periodic solutions are investigated. An illustrative example is provided.Comment: 24 pages, 1 figur

Delay-dependent criterion for exponential stability analysis of neural networks with time-varying delays

This note investigates the problem of exponential stability of neural networks with time-varying delays. To derive a less conservative stability condition, a novel augmented Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional (LKF) which includes triple and quadruple-integral terms is employed. In order to reduce the complexity of the stability test, the convex combination method is utilized to derive an improved delay dependent stability criterion in the form of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). The superiority of the proposed approach is demonstrated by two comparative examples

New delay-dependent stability criteria for recurrent neural networks with time-varying delays

Dimirovski, Georgi M. (Dogus Author)This work is concerned with the delay-dependentstability problem for recurrent neural networks with time-varying delays. A new improved delay-dependent stability criterion expressed in terms of linear matrix inequalities is derived by constructing a dedicated Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional via utilizing Wirtinger inequality and convex combination approach. Moreover, a further improved delay-dependent stability criterion is established by means of a new partitioning method for bounding conditions on the activation function and certain new activation function conditions presented. Finally, the application of these novel results to an illustrative example from the literature has been investigated and their effectiveness is shown via comparison with the existing recent ones
