Nonfragile Finite-Time Synchronization for Coupled Neural Networks With Impulsive Approach

Finite-time synchronization for coupled neural networks with time-delay jumping coupling

The finite-time synchronization problem is studied for coupled neural networks (CNNs) with time-delay jumping coupling. Markovian switching topologies, imprecise delay models, uncertain parameters and the unavailable of topology modes are considered in this work. A mode-dependent delay with pre-known conditional probability is built to handle the imprecise delay model problem. A hidden Markov model with uncertain parameters is introduced to describe the mode mismatch problem, and an asynchronous controller is designed. Besides, a set of Bernoulli processes models the random packet dropouts during data communication. Based on Markovian switching topologies, mode-dependent delays, uncertain probabilities and packet dropout, a sufficient condition that guarantees the CNNs reach finite-time synchronization (FTS) is derived. Finally, a numerical example is derived to demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed synchronous technique.

Finite-Time Estimation for Markovian BAM Neural Networks With Asymmetrical Mode-Dependent Delays and Inconstant Measurements

The issue of finite-time state estimation is studied for discrete-time Markovian bidirectional associative memory neural networks. The asymmetrical system mode-dependent (SMD) time-varying delays (TVDs) are considered, which means that the interval of TVDs is SMD. Because the sensors are inevitably influenced by the measurement environments and indirectly influenced by the system mode, a Markov chain, whose transition probability matrix is SMD, is used to describe the inconstant measurement. A nonfragile estimator is designed to improve the robustness of the estimator. The stochastically finite-time bounded stability is guaranteed under certain conditions. Finally, an example is used to clarify the effectiveness of the state estimation.

Synchronization of Complex Dynamical Networks Subject to DoS Attacks: An Improved Coding-Decoding Protocol

This article investigates the synchronization of communication-constrained complex dynamic networks subject to malicious attacks. An observer-based controller is designed by virtue of the bounded encode sequence derived from an improved coding-decoding communication protocol. Moreover, taking the security of data transmission into consideration, the denial-of-service attacks with the frequency and duration characterized by the average dwell-time constraint are introduced into data communication, and their influence on the coder string is analyzed explicitly. Thereafter, by imposing reasonable restrictions on the transmission protocol and the occurrence of attacks, the boundedness of coding intervals can be obtained. Since the precision of data is generally limited, it may lead to the situation that the signal to be encoded overflows the coding interval such that it results in the unavailability of the developed coding scheme. To cope with this problem, a dynamic variable is introduced to the design of the protocol. Subsequently, based on the Lyapunov stability theory, sufficient conditions for ensuring the input-to-state stability of the synchronization error systems under the communication-constrained condition and malicious attacks are presented. The validity of the developed method is finally verified by a simulation example of chaotic networks.

Dynamic Event-Triggered State Estimation for Markov Jump Neural Networks With Partially Unknown Probabilities

This article focuses on the investigation of finite-time dissipative state estimation for Markov jump neural networks. First, in view of the subsistent phenomenon that the state estimator cannot capture the system modes synchronously, the hidden Markov model with partly unknown probabilities is introduced in this article to describe such asynchronization constraint. For the upper limit of network bandwidth and computing resources, a novel dynamic event-triggered transmission mechanism, whose threshold parameter is constructed as an adjustable diagonal matrix, is set between the estimator and the original system to avoid data collision and save energy. Then, with the assistance of Lyapunov techniques, an event-based asynchronous state estimator is designed to ensure that the resulting system is finite-time bounded with a prescribed dissipation performance index. Ultimately, the effectiveness of the proposed estimator design approach combining with a dynamic event-triggered transmission mechanism is demonstrated by a numerical example.

Adaptive Event-Triggered Finite-Time Dissipative Filtering for Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Markov Jump Systems With Asynchronous Modes

This article investigates the adaptive event-triggered finite-time dissipative filtering problems for the interval type-2 (IT2) Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy Markov jump systems (MJSs) with asynchronous modes. By designing a generalized performance index, the H_∞ , L₂-L_∞ , and dissipative fuzzy filtering problems with network transmission delay are addressed. The adaptive event-triggered scheme (ETS) is proposed to guarantee that the IT2 T-S fuzzy MJSs are finite-time boundedness (FTB) and, thus, lower the energy consumption of communication while ensuring the performance of the system with extended dissipativity. Different from the conventional triggering mechanism, in this article, the parameters of the triggering function are based on an adaptive law, which is obtained online rather than as a predefined constant. Besides, the asynchronous phenomenon between the plant and the filter is considered, which is described by a hidden Markov model (HMM). Finally, two examples are presented to show the availability of the proposed algorithms.

Quasisynchronization for Neural Networks With Partial Constrained State Information via Intermittent Control Approach

This work addresses quasisynchronization (QS) of the master-slave (MS) neural networks (NNs) with mismatched parameters. The logarithmic quantizer and the round-robin protocol (RRP) are used to deal with the limited communication channel (CC) capacity, then the intermittent control strategy is employed to improve the efficiency of CC and the controller. A transmission-dependent controller is designed, and the synchronization error system (SES) is established. The QS with a boundary is ensured for the MS NNs by a developed sufficient condition, and the controller design method is given. A numerical simulation is given to show the effectiveness of the obtained method.

Fixed-Time Synchronization for Fuzzy-Based Impulsive Complex Networks

This paper mainly deals with the issue of fixed-time synchronization of fuzzy-based impulsive complex networks. By developing fixed-time stability of impulsive systems and proposing a T-S fuzzy control strategy with pure power-law form, some simple criteria are acquired to achieve fixed-time synchronization of fuzzy-based impulsive complex networks and the estimation of the synchronized time is given. Ultimately, the presented control scheme and synchronization criteria are verified by numerical simulation.

Reliable impulsive synchronization for fuzzy neural networks with mixed controllers

This work studies the synchronization of the master-slave (MS) fuzzy neural networks (FNNs) with random actuator failure, where the state information of the master FNNs can not be obtained directly. To reduce the loads of the communication channel and the controller, the simultaneously impulsive driven strategy of the communication channel and the controller is proposed. On the basis of the received measurements of the master FNNs, the mixed controller consisting of observer based controller and the static controller is designed. The randomly occurred actuator failure is also considered. According to the Lyapunov method, the sufficient conditions are achieved to ensure the synchronization of the MS FNNs, and the controller gains are designed by using the obtained results. The validity of the derived results is illustrated by a numerical example.
