An improved criterion on finite-time stability for fractional-order fuzzy cellular neural networks involving leakage and discrete delays

Abstract

This paper concentrates on the finite-time stability (FTS) for fractional-order fuzzy cellular neural networks involving leakage and discrete delays. We propose a method to develop a new FTS criterion which is a supplement to the research on stability for fractional-order systems. The proof mainly depends on a new Henry–Gronwall integral inequality (HGII) with two discrete delays. This inequality generalizes some known ones which have played a significant role in the analysis on fractional-order systems. Finally, we demonstrate the correctness and advantages of the obtained criterion by supplying some examples.
