Delay-Dependent Global Exponential Stability for Delayed Recurrent Neural Networks

Global Stability of Bidirectional Associative Memory Neural Networks With Multiple Time-Varying Delays

This article investigates the global stability of bidirectional associative memory neural networks with discrete and distributed time-varying delays (DBAMNNs). By employing the comparison strategy and inequality techniques, global asymptotic stability (GAS) and global exponential stability (GES) of the underlying DBAMNNs are of concern in terms of p -norm ( p ≥ 2 ). Meanwhile, GES of the addressed DBAMNNs is also analyzed in terms of 1-norm. When distributed time delay is neglected, the GES of the corresponding bidirectional associative memory neural networks is presented as an M -matrix, which includes certain existing outcomes as special cases. Two examples are finally provided to substantiate the validity of theories.

Global Exponential Stability of Memristive Neural Networks With Mixed Time-Varying Delays

This article investigates the Lagrange exponential stability and the Lyapunov exponential stability of memristive neural networks with discrete and distributed time-varying delays (DMNNs). By means of inequality techniques, theories of the M-matrix, and the comparison strategy, the Lagrange exponential stability of the underlying DMNNs is considered in the sense of Filippov, and the globally exponentially attractive set is estimated through employing the M-matrix and external input. Especially, when the external input is not concerned, the Lyapunov exponential stability of the corresponding DMNNs is developed immediately in the form of an M-matrix, which contains some published outcomes as special cases. Furthermore, by constructing an M-matrix-based differential system, the Lyapunov exponential stability of the DMNNs is studied, which is less conservative than some existing ones. Finally, three simulation examples are carried out to examine the validness of the theories.

Lagrange Stability and Finite-Time Stabilization of Fuzzy Memristive Neural Networks With Hybrid Time-Varying Delays

This paper focuses on Lagrange exponential stability and finite-time stabilization of Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy memristive neural networks with discrete and distributed time-varying delays (DFMNNs). By resorting to theories of differential inclusions and the comparison strategy, an algebraic condition is developed to confirm Lagrange exponential stability of the underlying DFMNNs in Filippov's sense, and the exponentially attractive set is estimated. When external input is not considered, global exponential stability of DFMNNs is derived directly, which includes some existing ones as special cases. Furthermore, finite-time stabilization of the addressed DFMNNs is analyzed by exploiting inequality techniques and the comparison approach via designing a nonlinear state feedback controller. The boundedness assumption of activation functions is removed herein. Finally, two simulations are presented to demonstrate the validness of the outcomes, and an application is performed in pseudorandom number generation.

Distributed Adaptive Tracking Synchronization for Coupled Reaction-Diffusion Neural Network

This paper considers the tracking synchronization problem for a class of coupled reaction-diffusion neural networks (CRDNNs) with undirected topology. For the case where the tracking trajectory has identical individual dynamic as that of the network nodes, the edge-based and vertex-based adaptive strategies on coupling strengths as well as adaptive controllers, which demand merely the local neighbor information, are proposed to synchronize the CRDNNs to the tracking trajectory. To reduce the control costs, an adaptive pinning control technique is employed. For the case where the tracking trajectory has different individual dynamic from that of the network nodes, the vertex-based adaptive strategy is proposed to drive the synchronization error to a relatively small area, which is adjustable according to the parameters of the adaptive strategy. This kind of adaptive design can enhance the robustness of the network against the external disturbance posed on the tracking trajectory. The obtained theoretical results are verified by two representative examples.

Exponential Stabilization of Fuzzy Memristive Neural Networks With Hybrid Unbounded Time-Varying Delays

This paper is concerned with exponential stabilization for a class of Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy memristive neural networks (FMNNs) with unbounded discrete and distributed time-varying delays. Under the framework of Filippov solutions, algebraic criteria are established to guarantee exponential stabilization of the addressed FMNNs with hybrid unbounded time delays via designing a fuzzy state feedback controller by exploiting inequality techniques, calculus theorems, and theories of fuzzy sets. The obtained results in this paper enhance and generalize some existing ones. Meanwhile, a general theoretical framework is proposed to investigate the dynamical behaviors of various neural networks with mixed infinite time delays. Finally, two simulation examples are performed to illustrate the validity of the derived outcomes.

Deep Hyperspectral Image Sharpening

Hyperspectral image (HSI) sharpening, which aims at fusing an observable low spatial resolution (LR) HSI (LR-HSI) with a high spatial resolution (HR) multispectral image (HR-MSI) of the same scene to acquire an HR-HSI, has recently attracted much attention. Most of the recent HSI sharpening approaches are based on image priors modeling, which are usually sensitive to the parameters selection and time-consuming. This paper presents a deep HSI sharpening method (named DHSIS) for the fusion of an LR-HSI with an HR-MSI, which directly learns the image priors via deep convolutional neural network-based residual learning. The DHSIS method incorporates the learned deep priors into the LR-HSI and HR-MSI fusion framework. Specifically, we first initialize the HR-HSI from the fusion framework via solving a Sylvester equation. Then, we map the initialized HR-HSI to the reference HR-HSI via deep residual learning to learn the image priors. Finally, the learned image priors are returned to the fusion framework to reconstruct the final HR-HSI. Experimental results demonstrate the superiority of the DHSIS approach over existing state-of-the-art HSI sharpening approaches in terms of reconstruction accuracy and running time.

Based on our newly proposed Lyapunov functionals and a relaxed Wirtinger-based integral inequality, new stability criteria are derived in the form of linear matrix inequalities. A comprehensive comparison of results is given to illustrate the newly proposed stability criteria from both the conservative and computational complexity point of views.

Synchronization of Coupled Reaction-Diffusion Neural Networks With Directed Topology via an Adaptive Approach

This paper investigates the synchronization issue of coupled reaction-diffusion neural networks with directed topology via an adaptive approach. Due to the complexity of the network structure and the presence of space variables, it is difficult to design proper adaptive strategies on coupling weights to accomplish the synchronous goal. Under the assumptions of two kinds of special network structures, that is, directed spanning path and directed spanning tree, some novel edge-based adaptive laws, which utilized the local information of node dynamics fully are designed on the coupling weights for reaching synchronization. By constructing appropriate energy function, and utilizing some analytical techniques, several sufficient conditions are given. Finally, some simulation examples are given to verify the effectiveness of the obtained theoretical results.

The proposed criteria herein enhance and generalize some published ones. Three numerical examples are presented to substantiate the validity and merits of the obtained theoretical results.

The proposed results are very easy to verify, and they also extend some previous related works on memristor-based real-valued neural networks. Meanwhile, the obtained sufficient conditions of this paper may be conducive to qualitative analysis of some complex-valued nonlinear delayed systems. A numerical example is given to demonstrate the effectiveness of our theoretical results.
