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

Abstract

This article solves the event-triggered exponential synchronization problem for a class of complex-valued memristive neural networks with time-varying delays. The drive-response complex-valued memristive neural networks are translated into two real-valued memristive neural networks through the method of separating the complex-valued memristive neural networks into real and imaginary parts. In order to reduce the information exchange frequency between the sensor and the controller, a novel event-triggered mechanism with the event-triggering functions is introduced in wireless communication networks. Some sufficient conditions are established to achieve the event-triggered exponential synchronization for drive-response complex-valued memristive neural networks with time-varying delays. In addition, to guarantee that the Zeno behavior cannot occur, a positive lower bound for the interevent times is explicitly derived. Finally, numerical simulations are provided to illustrate the effectiveness and superiority of the obtained theoretical results.
