Abstract: In this paper, a finite-time lag synchronization of coupled neural networks with time delay is investigated. By means of the Lyapunov stability theory, a feedback controller is designed for achieving lag synchronization between two delayed neural networks systems in finite time. Paper extends some basic results from the area of finite time to time-delay systems. Numerical simulations on coupled Lu neural systems illustrate the effectiveness of the results.

This paper studies projective lag synchronization of coupled neural networks with time delay and parameter mismatch. An adaptive controller is designed to achieve weak projective lag synchronization of coupled neural networks. This method is employed to realize projective lag synchronization between coupled neural systems with an error level. Numerical simulation illustrates the effectiveness of the results.

Abstract: This paper deals with the synchronization of two coupled identical chaotic systems with parameter mismatch via using periodically intermittent control. In general, parameter mismatches are considered to have a detrimental effect on the synchronization quality between coupled identical systems: in the case of small parameter mismatches the synchronization error does not decay to zero or even a nonzero mean. Larger values of parameter mismatches can even result in the loss of synchronization. via intermittent control with periodically intervals, we can obtain the weak synchronization. Some sufficient conditions for the stabilization and weak synchronization of a large class of coupled identical chaotic systems will be derived by using Lyapunov stability theory. The analytical results are confirmed by numerical simulations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper talks about the stability and synchronization problems of fractional-order quaternion-valued neural networks (FQVNNs) with linear threshold neurons. On account of the non-commutativity of quaternion multiplication resulting from Hamilton rules, the FQVNN models are separated into four real-valued neural network (RVNN) models. Consequently, the dynamic analysis of FQVNNs can be realized by investigating the real-valued ones. Based on the method of M -matrix, the existence and uniqueness of the equilibrium point of the FQVNNs are obtained without detailed proof. Afterwards, several sufficient criteria ensuring the global Mittag-Leffler stability for the unique equilibrium point of the FQVNNs are derived by applying the Lyapunov direct method, the theory of fractional differential equation, the theory of matrix eigenvalue, and some inequality techniques. In the meanwhile, global Mittag-Leffler synchronization for the drive–response models of the addressed FQVNNs are investigated explicitly. Finally, simulation examples are designed to verify the feasibility and availability of the theoretical results. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, we investigate a more general sparse signal recovery minimization model and a smoothing neural network optimal method for compress sensing problem, where the objective function is a L p − q minimization model which includes nonsmooth, nonconvex, and non-Lipschitz quasi-norm L p norms 1 ≥ p > 0 and nonsmooth L q norms 2 ≥ p > 1 , and its feasible set is a closed convex subset of R n . Firstly, under the restricted isometry property (RIP) condition, the uniqueness of solution for the minimization model with a given sparsity s is obtained through the theoretical analysis. With a mild condition, we get that the larger of the q , the more effective of the sparse recovery model under sensing matrix satisfies RIP conditions at fixed p . Secondly, using a smoothing approximate method, we propose the smoothing inertial projection neural network (SIPNN) algorithm for solving the proposed general model. Under certain conditions, the proposed algorithm can converge to a stationary point. Finally, convergence behavior and successful recover performance experiments and a comparison experiment confirm the effectiveness of the proposed SIPNN algorithm. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper focuses on the hybrid effects of coupling, time-varying delay, intermittent controller on memristor-based neural networks. Firstly, we constructed an array of linearly coupled memristor-based neural networks with time-varying delay. Secondly, our sufficient conditions, ensuring the stability and synchronization, are dependent on coupling and intermittent control and show coupling and intermittent control on the stability and synchronization of memristor-based neural networks. Finally, numerical simulations were given to verify the theoretical results. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, a feedback neural network model is proposed for solving a class of convex quadratic bi-level programming problems based on the idea of successive approximation. Differing from existing neural network models, the proposed neural network has the least number of state variables and simple structure. Based on Lyapunov theories, we prove that the equilibrium point sequence of the feedback neural network can approximately converge to an optimal solution of the convex quadratic bi-level problem under certain conditions, and the corresponding sequence of the function value approximately converges to the optimal value of the convex quadratic bi-level problem. Simulation experiments on three numerical examples and a portfolio selection problem are provided to show the efficiency and performance of the proposed neural network approach. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
