Discrete-time analogs for a class of continuous-time recurrent neural networks.

This paper is concerned with the problem of local and global asymptotic stability for a class of discrete-time recurrent neural networks, which provide discrete-time analogs to their continuous-time counterparts, i.e., continuous-time recurrent neural networks with distributed delay. Some stability criteria, which include some existing results as their special cases, are derived. A discussion about the dynamical consistence of discrete-time neural networks versus their continuous-time counterparts is provided. An unconventional finite difference method is proposed and an example is also given to show the effectiveness of the method.     

Global Asymptotic Stability of Periodic Solutions for Discrete Time Delayed BAM Neural Networks by Combining Coincidence Degree Theory with LMI Method

In this paper, we are concerned with the existence and global asymptotic stability of periodic solutions for a class of delayed discrete-time BAM neural networks. Instead of using the method of the priori estimate of periodic solutions in existing papers to study periodic solutions of neural networks, by combining Mawhin’s continuation theorem of coincidence degree theory with linear matrix inequality (LMI) method as well as inequality techniques, some novel LMI-based sufficient conditions to guarantee the existence and global asymptotic stability of periodic solutions for the neural networks are established. Our results which are both dependent on time delay and external inputs of the neural networks are new and complementary to the existing papers.

Global stability analysis of a general class of discontinuous neural networks with linear growth activation functions

This paper investigates the global asymptotic stability of the periodic solution for a general class of neural networks whose neuron activation functions are modeled by discontinuous functions with linear growth property. By using Leray-Schauder alternative theorem, the existence of the periodic solution is proved. Based on the matrix theory and generalized Lyapunov approach, a sufficient condition which ensures the global asymptotical stability of a unique periodic solution is presented. The obtained results can be applied to check the global asymptotical stability of discontinuous neural networks with a broad range of activation functions assuming neither boundedness nor monotonicity, and also conform the validity of Forti’s conjecture for discontinuous neural networks with linear growth activation functions. Two illustrative examples are given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the present results.

Global asymptotic stability analysis for neutral-type complex-valued neural networks with random time-varying delays

This paper investigates the global asymptotic stability problem for a class of neutral-type complex-valued neural networks with random time-varying delays. By introducing a stochastic variable with Bernoulli distribution, the information of time-varying delay is assumed to be random time-varying delays. By constructing an appropriate Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional and employing inequality technique, several sufficient conditions are obtained to ensure the global asymptotically stability of equilibrium point for the considered neural networks. The obtained stability criterion is expressed in terms of complex-valued linear matrix inequalities, which can be simply solved by effective YALMIP toolbox in MATLAB. Finally, three numerical examples are given to demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed main results.
