Robust Finite-Time Zeroing Neural Networks With Fixed and Varying Parameters for Solving Dynamic Generalized Lyapunov Equation

For solving dynamic generalized Lyapunov equation, two robust finite-time zeroing neural network (RFTZNN) models with stationary and nonstationary parameters are generated through the usage of an improved sign-bi-power (SBP) activation function (AF). Taking differential errors and model implementation errors into account, two corresponding perturbed RFTZNN models are derived to facilitate the analyses of robustness on the two RFTZNN models. Theoretical analysis gives the quantitatively estimated upper bounds for the convergence time (UBs-CT) of the two derived models, implying a superiority of the convergence that varying parameter RFTZNN (VP-RFTZNN) possesses over the fixed parameter RFTZNN (FP-RFTZNN). When the coefficient matrices and perturbation matrices are uniformly bounded, residual error of FP-RFTZNN is bounded, whereas that of VP-RFTZNN monotonically decreases at a super-exponential rate after a finite time, and eventually converges to 0. When these matrices are bounded but not uniform, residual error of FP-RFTZNN is no longer bounded, but that of VP-RFTZNN still converges. These superiorities of VP-RFTZNN are illustrated by abundant comparative experiments, and its application value is further proved by an application to robot.

Bogdanov–Takens Bifurcation in a Neutral Delayed Hopfield Neural Network with Bidirectional Connection

In this paper, a neutral Hopfield neural network with bidirectional connection is considered. In the first step, by choosing the connection weights as parameters bifurcation, the critical point at which a zero root of multiplicity two occurs in the characteristic equation associated with the linearized system. In the second step, we studied the zeros of a third degree exponential polynomial in order to make sure that except the double zero root, all the other roots of the characteristic equation have real parts that are negative. Moreover, we find the critical values to guarantee the existence of the Bogdanov–Takens bifurcation. In the third step, the normal form is obtained and its dynamical behaviors are studied after the use of the reduction on the center manifold and the theory of the normal form. Furthermore, for the demonstration of our results, we have given a numerical example.
