Finite-time H∞ synchronization for complex dynamical networks with time-varying delays based on adaptive control

This paper investigates the problem of finite-time H_∞ synchronization (H_∞FTS) for complex dynamical networks (CDNs) with time-varying delays(TVDs) and unknown internal coupling matrices. External disturbances are also considered into this model. By applying the adaptive control theory, this paper presents the adaptive control method to solve the H_∞FTS of CDNs with external disturbances and TVDs. Some criteria are obtained by utilizing appropriate adaptive controllers and devising a special Lyapunov-Krasovskii function (LKF), which ensure the H_∞FTS of CDNs based on passivity theory. Finally, using some effective mathematical techniques, comparative numerical example and Chua's circuit system are used to explain the advantages and applicability of the results and approaches.

State Estimation for Complex-Valued Inertial Neural Networks with Multiple Time Delays

In this paper, the problem of state estimation for complex-valued inertial neural networks with leakage, additive and distributed delays is considered. By means of the Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional method, the Jensen inequality, and the reciprocally convex approach, a delay-dependent criterion based on linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) is derived. At the same time, the network state is estimated by observing the output measurements to ensure the global asymptotic stability of the error system. Finally, two examples are given to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.

State-Feedback Filtering for Delayed Discrete-Time Complex-Valued Neural Networks

This article explores a new filtering problem for the class of delayed discrete-time complex-valued neural networks (CVNNs) via state-feedback control design. The novelty of this article comes from the consideration of the newly developed complex-valued reciprocal convex matrix inequality as well as the complex-valued Jensen-based summation inequalities (JSIs). By employing an appropriate Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional (LKF) and by using newly proposed complex-valued inequalities, attention is concentrated on the design of a state-feedback filter such that the associated filtering error system is asymptotically stable with prescribed filter and control gain matrices. The proposed theoretical results are presented in terms of complex-valued linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) that can be solved numerically by using the YALMIP toolbox in MATLAB software. Additionally, one numerical example is given to confirm the validity of the resulting sufficient conditions with the availability of the suitable control and filter design.

Robust Stability of Complex-Valued Stochastic Neural Networks with Time-Varying Delays and Parameter Uncertainties

In practical applications, stochastic effects are normally viewed as the major sources that lead to the system’s unwilling behaviours when modelling real neural systems. As such, the research on network models with stochastic effects is significant. In view of this, in this paper, we analyse the issue of robust stability for a class of uncertain complex-valued stochastic neural networks (UCVSNNs) with time-varying delays. Based on the real-imaginary separate-type activation function, the original UCVSNN model is analysed using an equivalent representation consisting of two real-valued neural networks. By constructing the proper Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional and applying Jensen’s inequality, a number of sufficient conditions can be derived by utilizing It o ^ ’s formula, the homeomorphism principle, the linear matrix inequality, and other analytic techniques. As a result, new sufficient conditions to ensure robust, globally asymptotic stability in the mean square for the considered UCVSNN models are derived. Numerical simulations are presented to illustrate the merit of the obtained results.

A Delay-Dividing Approach to Robust Stability of Uncertain Stochastic Complex-Valued Hopfield Delayed Neural Networks

In scientific disciplines and other engineering applications, most of the systems refer to uncertainties, because when modeling physical systems the uncertain parameters are unavoidable. In view of this, it is important to investigate dynamical systems with uncertain parameters. In the present study, a delay-dividing approach is devised to study the robust stability issue of uncertain neural networks. Specifically, the uncertain stochastic complex-valued Hopfield neural network (USCVHNN) with time delay is investigated. Here, the uncertainties of the system parameters are norm-bounded. Based on the Lyapunov mathematical approach and homeomorphism principle, the sufficient conditions for the global asymptotic stability of USCVHNN are derived. To perform this derivation, we divide a complex-valued neural network (CVNN) into two parts, namely real and imaginary, using the delay-dividing approach. All the criteria are expressed by exploiting the linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Based on two examples, we obtain good theoretical results that ascertain the usefulness of the proposed delay-dividing approach for the USCVHNN model.
