This paper formulates the model and then studies its dynamics of a system of linearly and diffusively coupled identical delayed neural networks (DNNs), which is generalization of delayed Hopfied neural networks (DHNNs) and delayed cellular neural networks (DCNNs). In particularly, a simple yet generic sufficient condition for global synchronization of such coupled DNNs is derived based on the Lyapunov functional methods and Hermitian matrix theory. It is shown that global synchronization of coupled DNNs is ensured by a suitable design of the coupling matrix and the inner linking matrix. Furthermore, the result is applied to some typical chaotic neural networks. Finally, numerical simulations are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the approach.
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.
