Event-Triggered Exponential Synchronization for Complex-Valued Memristive Neural Networks With Time-Varying Delays

Dynamic Event-Triggered Control for GSES of Memristive Neural Networks Under Multiple Cyber-Attacks

In this article, the dynamic event-triggered control problem of memristive neural networks (MNNs) under multiple cyber-attacks is considered. A novel dynamic event-triggering scheme (DETS) and the corresponding event-triggered controller are proposed by taking into consideration both denial-of-service and deception attacks (DoS-DAs). Then, a key lemma is established to show that the dynamic event-triggered controller can be used to solve the globally stochastically exponential stability (GSES) issue of concerned MNN under multiple cyber-attacks. Meanwhile, a novel Lyapunov functional is proposed based on the actual sampling pattern. It is shown that under our proposed dynamic event-triggered controller and Lyapunov functional, the concerned MNN can achieve GSES in the presence of DoS-DAs. In addition, our results include relevant results on event-triggered control of MNN with static event-triggering scheme (SETS) or without cyber-attacks as special cases. The effectiveness of the proposed event-triggered controller under multiple cyber-attacks is illustrated by a simulation example.

Global synchronization of complex-valued neural networks with unbounded time-varying delays

This paper investigates global synchronization of complex-valued neural networks (CVNNs) with unbounded time-varying delays. By applying analytical method and inequality techniques, an algebraic criterion is established to ensure global synchronization of the CVNNs via a devised feedback controller, which generalizes some existing outcomes. Finally, two numerical simulations and one application in image encryption are provided to verify the effectiveness of the theoretical results.

Non-fragile output-feedback synchronization for delayed discrete-time complex-valued neural networks with randomly occurring uncertainties

This paper is step forward to establish an exponential synchronization criterion for discrete-time complex-valued neural networks (CVNNs) having time-varying delays subject to randomly occurring uncertain weighting parameters, in order to overcome the fluctuation when the output-feedback controller imposes on its dynamics. To achieve this, Jensen's weighted summation inequalities (WSIs) and an extended reciprocal convex matrix inequality (ERCMI) are extended into the domain of complex field. By introducing some augmented vectors, a Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional (LKF) is constructed to attain an improved delay-dependent linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) constraint for the exponential synchronization phenomenon of the desired master-slave neuronal system model. For instance, the upper bound of the quadratic summation terms occurred in the finite difference of the LKF have been obtained from its linearization that has been made by the developed complex-valued WSIs and complex-valued ERCMI. The proposed results are less restrictive with the minimum number of decision variables than those obtained using existing inequalities. The designed output-feedback control gain has been determined by solving a set of complex-valued LMIs and it has been enforced with a prescribed exponential decay rate. Finally, in sight of MATLAB software, the established results have been examined via a numerical example supported by the simulation results.

Improved Results on Fixed-/Preassigned-Time Synchronization for Memristive Complex-Valued Neural Networks

This article concerns the problems of synchronization in a fixed time or prespecified time for memristive complex-valued neural networks (MCVNNs), in which the state variables, activation functions, rates of neuron self-inhibition, neural connection memristive weights, and external inputs are all assumed to be complex-valued. First, the more comprehensive fixed-time stability theorem and more accurate estimations on settling time (ST) are systematically established by using the comparison principle. Second, by introducing different norms of complex numbers instead of decomposing the complex-valued system into real and imaginary parts, we successfully design several simpler discontinuous controllers to acquire much improved fixed-time synchronization (FXTS) results. Third, based on similar mathematical derivations, the preassigned-time synchronization (PATS) conditions are explored by newly developed new control strategies, in which ST can be prespecified and is independent of initial values and any parameters of neural networks and controllers. Finally, numerical simulations are provided to illustrate the effectiveness and superiority of the improved synchronization methodology.

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.

Event-Triggered Exponential Stabilization for State-Based Switched Inertial Complex-Valued Neural Networks With Multiple Delays

This article explores the exponential stabilization issue of a class of state-based switched inertial complex-valued neural networks with multiple delays via event-triggered control. First, the state-based switched inertial complex-valued neural networks with multiple delays are modeled. Second, by separating the real and imaginary parts of complex values, the state-based switched inertial complex-valued neural networks are transformed into two state-based switched inertial real-valued neural networks. Through the variable substitution method, the model of the second-order inertial neural networks is transformed into a model of the first-order neural networks. Third, an event-triggered controller with the transmission sequence is designed to study the exponential stabilization issue of neural networks constructed above. Then, by constructing the Lyapunov functions and based on some inequalities, we obtain sufficient conditions for exponential stabilization of the proposed neural networks. Furthermore, it is proved that the Zeno phenomenon cannot happen under the designed event-triggered controller. Finally, a simulation example is given to illustrate the correctness of the results.

Exponential Synchronization of Memristor-Based Competitive Neural Networks With Reaction-Diffusions and Infinite Distributed Delays

Taking into account the infinite distributed delays and reaction-diffusions, this article investigates the global exponential synchronization problem of a class of memristor-based competitive neural networks (MCNNs) with different time scales. Based on the Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional and inequality approach, an adaptive control approach is proposed to ensure the exponential synchronization of the addressed drive-response networks. The closed-loop system is a discontinuous and delayed partial differential system in a cascade form, involving the spatial diffusion, the infinite distributed delays, the parametric adaptive law, the state-dependent switching parameters, and the variable structure controllers. By combining the theories of nonsmooth analysis, partial differential equation (PDE) and adaptive control, we present a new analytical method for rigorously deriving the synchronization of the states of the complex system. The derived m-norm (m ≥ 2)-based synchronization criteria are easily verified and the theoretical results are easily extended to memristor-based neural networks (NNs) without different time scales and reaction-diffusions. Finally, numerical simulations are presented to verify the effectiveness of the theoretical results.
