Synchronization of Coupled Switched Neural Networks with Time-Varying Delays

Abstract

In this paper, the exponential synchronization problem of delayed coupled switched neural networks with individual node and network topology switching is investigated. By using the matrix decomposing approach and the switched system comparison principle, several synchronization criteria for such complex dynamical networks are obtained. Firstly, under the assumption that all subnetworks are self-synchronized, a sufficient condition is derived in terms of an algebraic inequality. Then, when some subnetworks are not self-synchronized, based on the maximal dwell time length, the exponential synchronization criteria are given in terms of algebraic inequalities. Finally, examples are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results.

Exponential Stability of Switched Neural Networks with Partial State Reset and Time-Varying Delays

“…In [18], each gene expression process can be roughly defined by a continuous dynamic behavior in a gene regulatory network, which is made up of a set of interacting genes, but when the protein concentration exceeds a certain threshold, the regulation kinetics will change abruptly. Furthermore, stable and unstable subsystems usually coexist in complex networks [19][20][21] since some subsystems in a switched system may be unstable due to disturbances, highly nonlinear dynamics, or possible failures [19,22]. As a result, considering switched neural networks (SNNs) with only stable or unstable subsystems are impractical.…”

A Sparse Auto Encoder Deep Process Neural Network Model and its Application

“…In 2000, in order to analyze the time-varying signal of nonlinear systems, He Xingui proposed 14,15 a spatio-temporal information processing oriented process neural network (PNN). The process neuron structure differs from the traditional neuron in that its input and connection weights can all be timevarying functions, and an time-aggregation is added to the neurons.…”
