Global asymptotic stability of switched boolean networks with missing data

Abstract

This paper investigates the global asymptotic stability of a switched Boolean network (SBN) with missing data. Due to the physical constraints of the communication media, data loss often occurs during the transmission. In this paper, the data loss is described as a Bernoulli distribution sequence, and the switching signal sequence is determined by a logical system. Using a semi-tensor product, the dynamics of a SBN with missing data are converted to an algebraic form. Based on this, a necessary and sufficient condition for global asymptotic stability of SBNs with missing data and auxiliary theorems are provided. Two illustrative examples are presented to show the applicability of the developed theorems.
