Global Robust Exponential Dissipativity for Interval Recurrent Neural Networks with Infinity Distributed Delays

This paper is concerned with the robust dissipativity problem for interval recurrent neural networks (IRNNs) with general activation functions, and continuous time-varying delay, and infinity distributed time delay. By employing a new differential inequality, constructing two different kinds of Lyapunov functions, and abandoning the limitation on activation functions being bounded, monotonous and differentiable, several sufficient conditions are established to guarantee the global robust exponential dissipativity for the addressed IRNNs in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) which can be easily checked by LMI Control Toolbox in MATLAB. Furthermore, the specific estimation of positive invariant and global exponential attractive sets of the addressed system is also derived. Compared with the previous literatures, the results obtained in this paper are shown to improve and extend the earlier global dissipativity conclusions. Finally, two numerical examples are provided to demonstrate the potential effectiveness of the proposed results.

Positive invariant sets and global exponential attractive sets of a class of neural networks with unbounded time-delays

In this paper, we study the positive invariant sets and global exponential attractive sets for a class of neural networks with unbounded time-delays. Based on the assumption for the activation function satisfying the global Lipschitz condition, several algebraic criterions for the aforementioned sets are obtained by constructing proper Lyapunov functions and employing Young inequality. Finally, examples are given and analyzed to demonstrate our results.

Stability in Lagrange sense for Cohen–Grossberg neural networks with time-varying delays and finite distributed delays

In this paper, we study the global exponential stability in Lagrange sense for a class of Cohen–Grossberg neural networks with time-varying delays and finite distributed delays. Based on the Lyapunov stability theory, several global exponential attractive sets in which all trajectories converge are obtained. We analyze three different types of activation functions which include both bounded and unbounded activation functions. These results can also be applied to analyze monostable as well as multistable and more extensive neural networks due to making no assumptions on the number of equilibria. Meanwhile, the results obtained in this paper are more general and challenging than that of the existing references. Finally, one example is given and analyzed to verify our results.

Positive invariant and global exponential attractive sets of neural networks with time-varying delays

In this paper, global exponential stability in Lagrange sense is further studied for various continuous-time delayed recurrent neural network with two different types of activation functions. Based on the parameters of the systems, detailed estimation of global exponential attractive sets and positive invariant sets are presented without any hypothesis on the existence. It is also verified that outside the global exponential attracting set; i.e., within the global attraction domain, there is no equilibrium state, periodic state, almost periodic state, and chaos attractor of the neural network. These theoretical analysis narrows the search field of optimization computation, associative memories, chaos control and synchronization and provide convenience for applications.
