A new approach to non-fragile state estimation for continuous neural networks with time-delays

Abstract

In this paper, the non-fragile state estimation problem is investigated for a class of continuous neural networks with time-delays and nonlinear perturbations. The estimator to be designed is of a simple linear structure without requiring the exact information of the activation functions or the time-delays, and is therefore easy to be implemented. Furthermore, the designed estimator gains are allowed to undergo multiplicative parameter variations within a given range and the non-fragility is guaranteed against possible implementation errors. The main purpose of the addressed problem is to design a non-fragile state estimator for the recurrent delayed neural networks such that the dynamics of the estimation error converges to the equilibrium asymptotically irrespective of the admissible parameter variations with the estimator gains. By employing a combination of the Lyapunov functionals and the matrix analysis techniques, sufficient conditions are established to ensure the existence of the desired estimators and the explicit characterization of such estimators are then given via solving a linear matrix inequality. Finally, a simulation example is used to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed design method.

Machine Learning with Applications in Breast Cancer Diagnosis and Prognosis

“…Over the past few decades, ANNs have been employed increasingly by more and more researchers, and become an active research area [37][38][39][40]. ANNs have afforded numerous successes with great progress in BC classification and diagnosis in the very early stages [22,[41][42][43][44][45][46][47].…”

Distributed Event-Based Set-Membership Filtering for a Class of Nonlinear Systems With Sensor Saturations Over Sensor Networks

“…These phenomena are customarily referred to as the incomplete information that has attracted much research interest in developing filtering schemes [1], [8]- [10], [16]- [18], [22], [23], [25], [32], [37], [39], [41], [43], [46]. However, when it comes to the event-based distributed filtering problems with incomplete information, the corresponding results have been very few owing mainly to the lack of appropriate techniques for coping with 1) the complicated node coupling according to the topological information and 2) the demanding triggering mechanism accounting for the limited capability.…”

A survey on set-membership filtering for networked control systems under communication protocols

“…Zhivoglyadov & Middleton, 2003) and has led to rich yet complex network-induced behaviours such as signal quantization, missing/fading measurements, communication delays, sensor saturations and out-of-sequencemeasurement updates. These behaviours have gained considerable research attention as introduced in Bahreini and Zarei (2016), Hassani and Zarei (2016), Li, Dong, Han, Hou and Li (2017), Gholami and Binazadeh (2018), Yu, Dong, Wang, Ren, and Alsaadi (2016), Yang, Dong, Wang, Ren, and Alsaadi (2016), Li and Bao (2017), Dong, Wang, Ding, and Gao (2014) and Shen, Song, Zhu, and Luo (2009). Hence, it has important practical significance to discuss the set-membership filtering problem for the NCSs.…”
