Reliable stability and stabilizability for complex-valued memristive neural networks with actuator failures and aperiodic event-triggered sampled-data control

Abstract

This study addresses the stability and stabilizability problems for complex-valued memristive neural networks (CVMNNs) with actuator failures via reliable aperiodic event-triggered sampled-data control. Different from the traditional control methods with time-triggered mechanism, an aperiodic event-triggered sampled-data control scheme is first proposed for CVMNNs. Taking the influence of actuator failures into account, a reliable controller is designed. In comparison with the existing control approaches, the one here is not only more applicable but effective to save the communication resources for CVMNNs. Then, a new Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional (LKF) is introduced, which can fully capture the information of sampling and complex-valued activation functions. Based on the LKF and some new estimation techniques, novel stability and stabilizability criteria are established, and the desired reliable aperiodic event-triggered sampled-data controller gains are obtained simultaneously. Finally, numerical simulations are provided to verify the effectiveness of the obtained theoretical results.
