Finite time stabilization of delayed neural networks

Comprehensive analysis of fixed-time stability and energy cost for delay neural networks

This paper focuses on comprehensive analysis of fixed-time stability and energy consumed by controller in nonlinear neural networks with time-varying delays. A sufficient condition is provided to assure fixed-time stability by developing a global composite switched controller and employing inequality techniques. Then the specific expression of the upper of energy required for achieving control is deduced. Moreover, the comprehensive analysis of the energy cost and fixed-time stability is investigated utilizing a dual-objective optimization function. It illustrates that adjusting the control parameters can make the system converge to the equilibrium point under better control state. Finally, one numerical example is presented to verify the effectiveness of the provided control scheme.

Finite-Time Passivity Analysis of Neutral-Type Neural Networks with Mixed Time-Varying Delays

This research study investigates the issue of finite-time passivity analysis of neutral-type neural networks with mixed time-varying delays. The time-varying delays are distributed, discrete and neutral in that the upper bounds for the delays are available. We are investigating the creation of sufficient conditions for finite boundness, finite-time stability and finite-time passivity, which has never been performed before. First, we create a new Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional, Peng–Park’s integral inequality, descriptor model transformation and zero equation use, and then we use Wirtinger’s integral inequality technique. New finite-time stability necessary conditions are constructed in terms of linear matrix inequalities in order to guarantee finite-time stability for the system. Finally, numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the result’s effectiveness. Moreover, our proposed criteria are less conservative than prior studies in terms of larger time-delay bounds.

Finite-time stabilization and energy consumption estimation for delayed neural networks with bounded activation function

This paper concentrates on finite-time stabilization and energy consumption estimation for one type of delayed neural networks (DNNs) with bounded activation function. Under the bounded activation function condition and using the comparison theorem, a new switch controller is proposed to ensure the finite-time stability of the considered DNNs. Furthermore, the energy consumption produced in system controlling is estimated by inequality techniques. We generalize the previous results about the problem of finite-time stabilization and energy consumption estimation for neural networks. Ultimately, two numerical simulations are carried out to verify the validity of our results.

Novel results on finite-time stabilization of state-based switched chaotic inertial neural networks with distributed delays

The p-norm finite-time stabilization (FTS) issue of a class of state-based switched inertial chaotic neural networks (SBSCINNs) with distributed time-varying delays is investigated. By using a suitable variable transformation, such second-order SBSCINNs are turned into the first-order differential equations. Then some novel criteria are obtained to stabilize SBSCINNs in a finite time based on the theory of finite-time control and non-smooth analysis together with designing two proper delay-dependent feedback controllers. Besides, the settling time of FTS is also estimated and discussed. Finally, the validity and practicability of the deduced theoretical results are verified by examples and applications.

Fixed-time synchronization of delayed Cohen-Grossberg neural networks based on a novel sliding mode

This paper has discussed fixed-time synchronization of discontinuous Cohen-Grossberg neural networks with time-varying delays and matched disturbances based on sliding mode control technology. First, a novel sliding-mode surface is established. And, the dynamics on the sliding-mode surface can be achieved in the fixed time by employing the Gudermannian function. Then, considering the effect of delay, two different control schemes are introduced to ensure the fixed time reachability of the sliding mode. In addition, some useful criteria are given out for fixed-time synchronization of neural networks, and the setting time is formulated in a straightforward way. Finally, some examples and simulations are presented to verify the validity of the proposed results.

Robust Finite-Time Stabilization of Fractional-Order Neural Networks With Discontinuous and Continuous Activation Functions Under Uncertainty

This paper is concerned with robust finite-time stabilization for a class of fractional-order neural networks (FNNs) with two types of activation functions (i.e., discontinuous and continuous activation function) under uncertainty. It is worth noting that there exist few results about FNNs with discontinuous activation functions, which is mainly because classical solutions and theories of differential equations cannot be applied in this case. Especially, there is no relevant finite-time stabilization research for such system, and this paper makes up for the gap. The existence of global solution under the framework of Filippov for such system is guaranteed by limiting discontinuous activation functions. According to set-valued analysis and Kakutani's fixed point theorem, we obtain the existence of equilibrium point. In particular, based on differential inclusion theory and fractional Lyapunov stability theory, several new sufficient conditions are given to ensure finite-time stabilization via a novel discontinuous controller, and the upper bound of the settling time for stabilization is estimated. In addition, we analyze the finite-time stabilization of FNNs with Lipschitz-continuous activation functions under uncertainty. The results of this paper improve corresponding ones of integer-order neural networks with discontinuous and continuous activation functions. Finally, three numerical examples are given to show the effectiveness of the theoretical results.

Event-based finite-time state estimation for Markovian jump systems with quantizations and randomly occurring nonlinear perturbations

This paper is concerned with finite-time state estimation for Markovian jump systems with quantizations and randomly occurring nonlinearities under event-triggered scheme. The event triggered scheme and the quantization effects are used to reduce the data transmission and ease the network bandwidth burden. The randomly occurring nonlinearities are taken into account, which are governed by a Bernoulli distributed stochastic sequence. Based on stochastic analysis and linear matrix inequality techniques, sufficient conditions of stochastic finite-time boundedness and stochastic H_∞ finite-time boundedness are firstly derived for the existence of the desired estimator. Then, the explicit expression of the gain of the desired estimator are developed in terms of a set of linear matrix inequalities. Finally, a numerical example is employed to demonstrate the usefulness of the theoretical results.

Synchronization of a Class of Switched Neural Networks with Time-Varying Delays via Nonlinear Feedback Control

This paper is concerned with the synchronization problem for a class of switched neural networks (SNNs) with time-varying delays. First, a new crucial lemma which includes and extends the classical exponential stability theorem is constructed. Then by using the lemma, new algebraic criteria of ψ -type synchronization (synchronization with general decay rate) for SNNs are established via the designed nonlinear feedback control. The ψ -type synchronization which is in a general framework is obtained by introducing a ψ -type function. It contains exponential synchronization, polynomial synchronization, and other synchronization as its special cases. The results of this paper are general, and they also complement and extend some previous results. Finally, numerical simulations are carried out to demonstrate the effectiveness of the obtained results.

Mean-square exponential input-to-state stability of delayed Cohen-Grossberg neural networks with Markovian switching based on vector Lyapunov functions

This paper studies the mean-square exponential input-to-state stability of delayed Cohen-Grossberg neural networks with Markovian switching. By using the vector Lyapunov function and property of M-matrix, two generalized Halanay inequalities are established. By means of the generalized Halanay inequalities, sufficient conditions are also obtained, which can ensure the exponential input-to-state stability of delayed Cohen-Grossberg neural networks with Markovian switching. Two numerical examples are given to illustrate the efficiency of the derived results.
