Global exponential convergence and synchronization for exponential numerical competitive neural networks with different time scales and fuzzy logic

Abstract

For nonlocal fuzzy delayed competitive neural networks, a novel difference model is first developed in this article using the Mittag-Leffler Euler difference method. Secondly, the existence of a sole globally bounded solution and globally exponential stability to the discrete-time networks are addressed based on Banach contractive mapping principle and the constant variation formula for sequences. Besides, exponential synchronization of the discrete-time networks is investigated and a feedback controller is designed from the viewpoint of the theory of controls. It is the first time to consider nonlocal fuzzy delayed competitive neural networks by using Mittag-Leffler Euler differences. In contrast to nonlocal discrete approaches, such difference competitive neural networks could preferably figure the features of continuous networks. The difference method in this paper extends and improves the traditional difference approaches, for example, Adams-Bashforth Euler differences. Moreover, this article explores some avenue for the research of discrete-time fractional-order systems and develops a set of theories and methodologies for the future investigations.
