Dynamics Analysis and Design for a Bidirectional Super-Ring-Shaped Neural Network With n Neurons and Multiple Delays.

Recently, the dynamics of delayed neural networks has always incurred the widespread concern of scholars. However, they are mostly confined to some simplified neural networks, which are only made up of a small amount of neurons. The main cause is that it is difficult to decompose and analyze generally high-dimensional characteristic matrices. In this article, for the first time, we can solve the computing issues of high-dimensional eigenmatrix by employing the formula of Coates flow graph, and the dynamics is considered for a bidirectional neural network with super-ring structure and multiple delays. Under certain circumstances, the characteristic equation of the linearized network can be transformed into the equation with integration element. By analyzing the equation, we find that the self-feedback coefficient and the delays have significant effects on the stability and Hopf bifurcation of the network. Then, we achieve some sufficient conditions of the stability and Hopf bifurcation on the network. Furthermore, the obtained conclusions are applied to design a standardized high-dimensional network with bidirectional ring structure, and the scale of the standardized high-dimensional network can be easily extended or reduced. Afterward, we propose some designing schemes to expand and reduce the dimension of the standardized high-dimensional network. Finally, the results of theories are coincident with that of experiments.
