Quasi-Synchronization and Complete Synchronization of Fractional-Order Fuzzy BAM Neural Networks Via Nonlinear Control

Complete synchronization of discrete-time fractional-order BAM neural networks with leakage and discrete delays

This paper concerns complete synchronization (CS) problem of discrete-time fractional-order BAM neural networks (BAMNNs) with leakage and discrete delays. Firstly, on the basis of Caputo fractional difference theory and nabla l-Laplace transform, two equations about the nabla sum are strictly proved. Secondly, two extended Halanay inequalities that are suitable for discrete-time fractional difference inequations with arbitrary initial time and multiple types of delays are introduced. In addition, through applying Caputo fractional difference theory and combining with inequalities gained from this paper, some sufficient CS criteria of discrete-time fractional-order BAMNNs with leakage and discrete delays are established under adaptive controller. Finally, one numerical simulation is utilized to certify the effectiveness of the obtained theoretical results.

Event-triggered impulsive quasi-synchronization for BAM neural networks with reliable redundant channel

This work addresses the quasi-synchronization of delay master-slave BAM neural networks. To improve the utilization of channel bandwidth, a dynamic event-triggered impulsive mechanism is employed, in which data is transmitted only when a preset event-triggered mechanism or a forced impulse interval is satisfied. In addition, to guarantee the reliability of information transmission, a reliable redundant channel for BAM neural networks is adopted, whose transmission scheduling strategy is designed on the basis of the packet dropouts rate of the main communication channels. Further, an algorithm is employed to reduce the quasi-synchronization range of the error systems and the controllers are obtained. At last, a simulation result is shown to illustrate the effectiveness of the presented strategy.

Quasi-Synchronization and Quasi-Uniform Synchronization of Caputo Fractional Variable-Parameter Neural Networks with Probabilistic Time-Varying Delays

Owing to the symmetry between drive–response systems, the discussions of synchronization performance are greatly significant while exploring the dynamics of neural network systems. This paper investigates the quasi-synchronization (QS) and quasi-uniform synchronization (QUS) issues between the drive–response systems on fractional-order variable-parameter neural networks (VPNNs) including probabilistic time-varying delays. The effects of system parameters, probability distributions and the order on QS and QUS are considered. By applying the Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional approach, Hölder’s inequality and Jensen’s inequality, the synchronization criteria of fractional-order VPNNs under controller designs with constant gain coefficients and time-varying gain coefficients are derived. The obtained criteria are related to the probability distributions and the order of the Caputo derivative, which can greatly avoid the situation in which the upper bound of an interval with time delay is too large yet the probability of occurrence is very small, and information such as the size of time delay and probability of occurrence is fully considered. Finally, two examples are presented to further confirm the effectiveness of the algebraic criteria under different probability distributions.
