This paper concerns complex delayed neural networks with discontinuous activations. Based on the framework of differential inclusion theory, we design two novel controllers by regulating a parameter σ 0≤σ<1 which covers both discontinuous and continuous controllers. Then, we investigate a nonautonomous cellular neural network system and autonomous neural network with linear coupling, respectively. By choosing a time-dependent Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional candidate and suitable controllers, some criteria are studied to guarantee the exponential synchronization of the complex delayed dynamical network. Finally, two numerical examples are given to illustrate our theoretical analysis.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
