Sampled-Data Control for Exponential Synchronization of Delayed Inertial Neural Networks With Aperiodic Sampling and State Quantization

This article is devoted to dealing with exponential synchronization for inertial neural networks (INNs) with heterogeneous time-varying delays (HTVDs) under the framework of aperiodic sampling and state quantization. First, by taking the effect of aperiodic sampling and state quantization into consideration, a novel quantized sampled-data (QSD) controller with time-varying control gain is designed to tackle the exponential synchronization of INNs. Second, considering the available information of the lower and upper bounds of each HTVD, a refined Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional (LKF) is proposed. Meanwhile, an improved looped-functional method is utilized to fully capture the characteristic of practical sampling patterns and further relax the positive definiteness requirement for LKF. Consequently, less conservative exponential synchronization conditions with extra flexibility are derived. Finally, a numerical example is employed to demonstrate the effectiveness and advantages of the proposed synchronization method.

Event-Triggered Resilient Filtering With the Interval Type Uncertainty for Markov Jump Systems

The problem of event-triggered resilient filtering for Markov jump systems is investigated in this article. The hidden Markov model is used to characterize asynchronous constraints between the filters and the systems. Gain uncertainties of the resilient filter are the interval type in this article, which is more accurate than the norm-bounded type to model the uncertain phenomenon. The number of linear matrix inequalities constraints can be decreased significantly by separating the vertices of the uncertain interval, so that the difficulty of calculation and calculation time can be reduced. Moreover, the event-triggered scheme is applied to depress the consumption of network resources. In order to find a balance between reducing bandwidth consumed and improving system performance, the threshold parameter is designed as a diagonal matrix in the event-triggered scheme. Utilizing the convex optimization method, the sufficient conditions are derived to guarantee that the filtering error systems are stochastically stable and satisfy the extended dissipation performance. Finally, a single-link robot arm system is delivered to certify the effectiveness and advantages of the proposed method.

Markovian RNN: An Adaptive Time Series Prediction Network With HMM-Based Switching for Nonstationary Environments

We investigate nonlinear regression for nonstationary sequential data. In most real-life applications such as business domains including finance, retail, energy, and economy, time series data exhibit nonstationarity due to the temporally varying dynamics of the underlying system. We introduce a novel recurrent neural network (RNN) architecture, which adaptively switches between internal regimes in a Markovian way to model the nonstationary nature of the given data. Our model, Markovian RNN employs a hidden Markov model (HMM) for regime transitions, where each regime controls hidden state transitions of the recurrent cell independently. We jointly optimize the whole network in an end-to-end fashion. We demonstrate the significant performance gains compared to conventional methods such as Markov Switching ARIMA, RNN variants and recent statistical and deep learning-based methods through an extensive set of experiments with synthetic and real-life datasets. We also interpret the inferred parameters and regime belief values to analyze the underlying dynamics of the given sequences.

Dynamic Event-Triggered State Estimation for Markov Jump Neural Networks With Partially Unknown Probabilities

This article focuses on the investigation of finite-time dissipative state estimation for Markov jump neural networks. First, in view of the subsistent phenomenon that the state estimator cannot capture the system modes synchronously, the hidden Markov model with partly unknown probabilities is introduced in this article to describe such asynchronization constraint. For the upper limit of network bandwidth and computing resources, a novel dynamic event-triggered transmission mechanism, whose threshold parameter is constructed as an adjustable diagonal matrix, is set between the estimator and the original system to avoid data collision and save energy. Then, with the assistance of Lyapunov techniques, an event-based asynchronous state estimator is designed to ensure that the resulting system is finite-time bounded with a prescribed dissipation performance index. Ultimately, the effectiveness of the proposed estimator design approach combining with a dynamic event-triggered transmission mechanism is demonstrated by a numerical example.

A Hierarchical Structure Approach to Finite-Time Filter Design for Fuzzy Markov Switching Systems With Deception Attacks

This work is concerned with the issue of finite-time filter design for a type of Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy Markov switching system (MSSs) with deception attacks (DAs). In view of communication network security, the randomly occurring DAs are considered in the measurement output (MO), in which the malicious unknown but bounded signals are launched by the adversary. Notably, to characterize the fallibility of the communication links between the MO and the filter, the packet dropouts, DAs, and quantization effects are taken into account simultaneously, which signifies that the resulting system is much more applicable than the existing results. Meanwhile, to deal with the phenomenon of asynchronous switching, a hierarchical structure approach is adopted, which involves the existing nonsynchronous/synchronous strategy as special cases. By means of a fuzzy-basis-dependent Lyapunov strategy, sufficient criteria are formulated such that the resulting system is stochastic finite-time boundedness under randomly occurring DAs. Finally, a double-inverted pendulum model and a numerical example are provided to validate the feasibility of the attained method.

Dissipativity-Based Synchronization for Switched Discrete-Time-Delayed Neural Networks With Combined Switching Paradigm

The present study concerns the dissipativity-based synchronization problem for the discrete-time switched neural networks with time-varying delay. Different from some existing research depending on the arbitrary and time-dependent switching mechanisms, all subsystems of the investigated delayed neural networks are permitted to be nondissipative. For reducing the switching frequency, the combined switching paradigm constituted by the time-dependent and state-dependent switching strategies is then constructed. In light of the proposed dwell-time-dependent storage functional, sufficient conditions with less conservativeness are formulated, under which the resultant synchronization error system is strictly (~X,~Y,~Z) - ϑ -dissipative on the basis of the combined switching mechanism or the joint action of the switching mechanism and time-varying control input. Finally, the applicability and superiority of the theoretical results are adequately substantiated with the synchronization issue of two discrete-time switched Hopfield neural networks with time-varying delay, and the relationship among the performance index, time delay, and minimum dwell time is also revealed.

Extended Dissipativity Analysis for Markovian Jump Neural Networks via Double-Integral-Based Delay-Product-Type Lyapunov Functional

This brief studies the problem of extended dissipativity analysis for the Markovian jump neural networks (MJNNs) with time-varying delay. A double-integral-based delay-product-type (DIDPT) Lyapunov functional is first constructed in this brief, which makes full use of the information of time delay. Moreover, some unnecessary constraints on the system structure are removed, which leads to more general results. A numerical example is employed to illustrate the advantages of the proposed method.

Dissipativity-Based Filtering for Switched Genetic Regulatory Networks with Stochastic Disturbances and Time-Varying Delays

This paper deals with the problem of dissipativity-based filtering for switched genetic regulatory networks (GRNs) with stochastic perturbation and time-varying delays. By choosing an appropriate piecewise Lyapunov function and using the average dwell time method, we propose a new set of sufficient conditions in terms of Linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) for the existence of dissipative filter, which ensures that the resulting filtering error system is mean-square exponentially stable with dissipativity performance. The filter gains are provided by solving feasible solutions to a certain set of LMIs. A simulation example is given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the desired dissipativity-based filter design approach.

Observer-Based Finite-Time Adaptive Fuzzy Control for Nontriangular Nonlinear Systems With Full-State Constraints

This article focuses on finite-time adaptive fuzzy output-feedback control for a class of nontriangular nonlinear systems with full-state constraints and unmeasurable states. Fuzzy-logic systems and the fuzzy state observer are employed to approximate uncertain nonlinear functions and estimate the unmeasured states, respectively. In order to solve the algebraic loop problem generated by the nontriangular structure, a variable separation approach based on the property of the fuzzy basis function is utilized. The barrier Lyapunov function is incorporated into each step of backstepping, and the condition of the state constraint is satisfied. The dynamic surface technique with an auxiliary first-order linear filter is applied to avoid the problem of an "explosion of complexity." Based on the finite-time stability theory, an adaptive fuzzy controller is constructed to guarantee that all signals in the closed-loop system are bounded, the tracking error converges to a small neighborhood of the origin in a finite time, and all states are ensured to remain in the predefined sets. Finally, the simulation results reveal the effectiveness of the proposed control design.

Resilient asynchronous state estimation of Markov switching neural networks: A hierarchical structure approach

This paper deals with the issue of resilient asynchronous state estimation of discrete-time Markov switching neural networks. Randomly occurring signal quantization and packet dropout are involved in the imperfect measured output. The asynchronous switching phenomena appear among Markov switching neural networks, quantizer modes and filter modes, which are modeled by a hierarchical structure approach. By resorting to the hierarchical structure approach and Lyapunov functional technique, sufficient conditions are achieved, and asynchronous resilient filters are derived such that filtering error dynamic is stochastically stable. Finally, two examples are included to verify the validity of the proposed method.

Asynchronous Partially Mode-Dependent Filtering of Network-Based MSRSNSs With Quantized Measurement

This article addresses the issue of asynchronous partially mode-dependent filtering for networked Markov switching repeated scalar nonlinear systems (MSRSNSs) subject to quantized measurements (QMs). Especially, a novel partially mode-dependent filter (PMDF) is constructed, where the signal transmission of a filter mode occurred randomly and is modeled by a Bernoulli distributed sequence. The designed PMDF is different from state mode, which is governed by an asynchronous switching rule. By utilizing a diagonally dominant-type Lyapunov functional (DDTLF), sufficient conditions ensure that the existence of the PMDF and the l₂-l_∞ performance index are derived. Finally, an economic example is adopted to substantiate the applicability of the developed theoretical results.

Event-Triggered Neural Control of Nonlinear Systems With Rate-Dependent Hysteresis Input Based on a New Filter

In controlling nonlinear uncertain systems, compensating for rate-dependent hysteresis nonlinearity is an important, yet challenging problem in adaptive control. In fact, it can be illustrated through simulation examples that instability is observed when existing control methods in canceling hysteresis nonlinearities are applied to the networked control systems (NCSs). One control difficulty that obstructs these methods is the design conflict between the quantized networked control signal and the rate-dependent hysteresis characteristics. So far, there is still no solution to this problem. In this paper, we consider the event-triggered control for NCSs subject to actuator rate-dependent hysteresis and failures. A new second-order filter is proposed to overcome the design conflict and used for control design. With the incorporation of the filter, a novel adaptive control strategy is developed from a neural network technique and a modified backstepping recursive design. It is proved that all the control signals are semiglobally uniformly ultimately bounded and the tracking error will converge to a tunable residual around zero.

Asynchronous and Resilient Filtering for Markovian Jump Neural Networks Subject to Extended Dissipativity

The problem of asynchronous and resilient filtering for discrete-time Markov jump neural networks subject to extended dissipativity is investigated in this paper. The modes of the designed resilient filter are assumed to run asynchronously with the modes of original Markov jump neural networks, which accord well with practical applications and are described through a hidden Markov model. Due to the fluctuation of the filter parameters, a resilient filter taking into account parameter uncertainty is adopted. Being different from the norm-bound type of uncertainty which has been studied in a considerable number of the existing literatures, the interval type of uncertainty is introduced so as to describe uncertain phenomenon more accurately. By means of convex optimal method, the gains of filter are derived to guarantee the stochastic stability and extended dissipativity of the filtering error system under the wave of the filter parameters. Considering the limited computing power of MATLAB solver, a relatively simple simulation is exploited to verify the effectiveness and merits of the theoretical findings where the relationships among optimal performance index, uncertain parameter σ , and asynchronous rate are revealed.

Resilient guaranteed cost control for uncertain T-S fuzzy systems with time-varying delays and Markov jump parameters

This paper aims to investigate the problem of resilient guaranteed cost control for uncertain Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy systems with Markov jump parameters and time-varying delay. A resilient mode-dependent fuzzy controller is designed and a weak sufficient condition is developed to ensure that the resulting closed-loop system is robust almost surely asymptotically stable with guaranteed cost index not exceeding the specified upper bound. Subsequently, the controller gain and upper bound of the guaranteed cost index can be obtained by solving a set of linear matrix inequalities. Finally, numerical and practical examples of the single-link robot arm system are provided to demonstrate the performance of the proposed approach.

Nonfragile H∞ control for periodic stochastic systems with probabilistic measurement

This paper addresses the problem of nonfragile H_∞ control for periodic stochastic systems with probabilistic measurement. A novel Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional is formulated, which makes full use of both delay and its change rate. In view of the measurement signal, the mode-dependent stochastic variables are employed and new sufficient conditions are achieved. Finally, two numerical examples are worked out to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed control design.

Dissipativity-based non-fragile sampled-data control design of interval type-2 fuzzy systems subject to random delays

This paper investigates the β-dissipativity-based reliable non-fragile sampled-data control problem for a class of interval type-2 (IT2) fuzzy systems. In particular, it is allowed to have randomly occurring time-varying delays in the controller design, which are modeled by Bernoulli distributed white noise sequences. Precisely, the IT2 fuzzy model and the non-fragile sampled-data controller are formulated by considering the mismatched membership functions. By constructing an appropriate Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional, a set of delay-dependent conditions is derived to guarantee that the closed-loop IT2 fuzzy system is strictly <Q,S,R>-β-dissipative. Moreover, the gain matrices of feedback reliable non-fragile sampled-data controller are derived in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs), which can be solved by using existing LMI solvers. Two numerical examples are eventually given to illustrate the applicability and effectiveness of the proposed controller design technique.
