By introducing a new type of Lyapunov functional and applying the homeomorphism theory and inequality technique, some new conditions axe derived ensuring the existence and uniqueness of the equilibrium point and its global exponential stability for CGNNs. These results obtained are independent of delays, develop the existent outcome in the earlier literature and are very easily checked in practice.

Global stability of Cohen-Grossberg neural networks with time-varying and distributed delays

In this paper, the global asymptotic stability is investigated for a class of Cohen-Grossberg neural networks with time-varying and distributed delays. By using the Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional and equivalent descriptor form of the considered system, several delay-dependent sufficient conditions are obtained to guarantee the asymptotic stability of the addressed systems. These conditions are dependent on both time-varying and distributed delays and presented in terms of LMIs and therefore, the stability criteria of such systems can be checked readily by resorting to the Matlab LMI toolbox. Finally, an example is given to show the effectiveness and less conservatism of the proposed methods.

The simulation samples have proved the effectiveness of the conclusions.

Short-TermWind Power Prediction Based on Combinatorial Neural Networks

Wind power volatility not only limits the large-scale grid connection but also poses many challenges to safe grid operation.Accurate wind power prediction can mitigate the adverse effects of wind power volatility on wind power grid connections.For the characteristics of wind power antecedent data and precedent data jointly to determine the prediction accuracy of the prediction model,the short-term prediction of wind power based on a combined neural network is proposed.First,the Bi-directional Long Short Term Memory(BiLSTM)network prediction model is constructed,and the bi-directional nature of the BiLSTM network is used to deeply mine the wind power data information and find the correlation information within the data.Secondly,to avoid the limitation of a single prediction model when the wind power changes abruptly,the Wavelet Transform-Improved Adaptive Genetic Algorithm-Back Propagation(WT-IAGA-BP)neural network based on the combination of the WT-IAGA-BP neural network and BiLSTM network is constructed for the short-term prediction of wind power.Finally,comparing with LSTM,BiLSTM,WT-LSTM,WT-BiLSTM,WT-IAGA-BP,and WT-IAGA-BP&LSTM prediction models,it is verified that the wind power short-term prediction model based on the combination of WT-IAGA-BP neural network and BiLSTM network has higher prediction accuracy.

Stability Analysis of Cohen-Grossberg Neural Networks with Time-Varying Delays

The global exponential stability of Cohen-Grossberg neural networks with time-varying delays is studied. By constructing several suitable Lyapunov functionals and utilizing differential in-equality techniques, some sufficient criteria for the global exponential stability and the exponential convergence rate of the equilibrium point of the system are obtained. The criteria do not require the activation functions to be differentiable or monotone nondecreasing. Some stability results from previous works are extended and improved. Comparisons are made to demonstrate the advantage of our results.

Multiple Lagrange stability and Lyapunov asymptotical stability of delayed fractional-order Cohen-Grossberg neural networks

This paper addresses the coexistence and local stability of multiple equilibrium points for fractional-order Cohen-Grossberg neural networks(FOCGNNs)with time delays.Based on Brouwer's fixed point theorem,sufficient conditions are established to ensure the existence of Πi=1^n(2Ki+1)equilibrium points for FOCGNNs.Through the use of Hardy inequality,fractional Halanay inequality,and Lyapunov theory,some criteria are established to ensure the local Lagrange stability and the local Lyapunov asymptotical stability of Πi=1^n(Ki+1)equilibrium points for FOCGNNs.The obtained results encompass those of integer-order Hopfield neural networks with or without delay as special cases.The activation functions are nonlinear and nonmonotonic.There could be many corner points in this general class of activation functions.The structure of activation functions makes FOCGNNs could have a lot of stable equilibrium points.Coexistence of multiple stable equilibrium points is necessary when neural networks come to pattern recognition and associative memories.Finally,two numerical examples are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the obtained results.

Our results can be easily verified and they are also less restrictive than previously known criteria and can be applied to Cohen-Grossberg neural networks, recurrent neural networks, and cellular neural networks. Finally, the proposed stability conditions are demonstrated with numerical examples.

Practical Options for Adopting Recurrent Neural Network and Its Variants on Remaining Useful Life Prediction

The remaining useful life(RUL)of a system is generally predicted by utilising the data collected from the sensors that continuously monitor different indicators.Recently,different deep learning(DL)techniques have been used for RUL prediction and achieved great success.Because the data is often time-sequential,recurrent neural network(RNN)has attracted significant interests due to its efficiency in dealing with such data.This paper systematically reviews RNN and its variants for RUL prediction,with a specific focus on understanding how different components(e.g.,types of optimisers and activation functions)or parameters(e.g.,sequence length,neuron quantities)affect their performance.After that,a case study using the well-studied NASA’s C-MAPSS dataset is presented to quantitatively evaluate the influence of various state-of-the-art RNN structures on the RUL prediction performance.The result suggests that the variant methods usually perform better than the original RNN,and among which,Bi-directional Long Short-Term Memory generally has the best performance in terms of stability,precision and accuracy.Certain model structures may fail to produce valid RUL prediction result due to the gradient vanishing or gradient exploring problem if the parameters are not chosen appropriately.It is concluded that parameter tuning is a crucial step to achieve optimal prediction performance.

Detection of Abnormal Network Traffic Using Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory

Nowadays,web systems and servers are constantly at great risk from cyberattacks.This paper proposes a novel approach to detecting abnormal network traffic using a bidirectional long short-term memory(LSTM)network in combination with the ensemble learning technique.First,the binary classification module was used to detect the current abnormal flow.Then,the abnormal flows were fed into the multilayer classification module to identify the specific type of flow.In this research,a deep learning bidirectional LSTM model,in combination with the convolutional neural network and attention technique,was deployed to identify a specific attack.To solve the real-time intrusion-detecting problem,a stacking ensemble-learning model was deployed to detect abnormal intrusion before being transferred to the attack classification module.The class-weight technique was applied to overcome the data imbalance between the attack layers.The results showed that our approach gained good performance and the F1 accuracy on the CICIDS2017 data set reached 99.97%,which is higher than the results obtained in other research.

μ-stability of multiple equilibria in Cohen-Grossberg neural networks and its application to associative memory

In this paper, the μ-stability of multiple equilibrium points(EPs) in the Cohen-Grossberg neural networks(CGNNs) is addressed by designing a kind of discontinuous activation function(AF). Under some criteria, CGNNs with this AF are shown to possess at least 5^(n)EPs, of which 3^(n)EPs are locally μ-stable. Compared with the saturated AF or the sigmoidal AF, CGNNs with the designed AF can produce many more total/stable EPs. Therefore, when CGNNs with the designed discontinuous AF are applied to associative memory, they can store more prototype patterns. Moreover, the AF is expanded to a more general version to further increase the number of total/stable equilibria. The CGNNs with the expanded AF are found to produce(2k+3)^(n)EPs, of which (k+2)^(n)EPs are locally μ-stable. By adjusting two parameters in the AF, the number of sufficient conditions ensuring the μ-stability of multiple equilibria can be decreased. This finding implies that the computational complexity can be greatly reduced.Two numerical examples and an application to associative memory are illustrated to verify the correctness of the obtained results.

Enhanced Deep Learning for Detecting Suspicious Fall Event in Video Data

Suspicious fall events are particularly significant hazards for the safety of patients and elders.Recently,suspicious fall event detection has become a robust research case in real-time monitoring.This paper aims to detect suspicious fall events during video monitoring of multiple people in different moving back-grounds in an indoor environment;it is further proposed to use a deep learning method known as Long Short Term Memory(LSTM)by introducing visual atten-tion-guided mechanism along with a bi-directional LSTM model.This method contributes essential information on the temporal and spatial locations of‘suspi-cious fall’events in learning the video frame in both forward and backward direc-tions.The effective“You only look once V4”(YOLO V4)–a real-time people detection system illustrates the detection of people in videos,followed by a track-ing module to get their trajectories.Convolutional Neural Network(CNN)fea-tures are extracted for each person tracked through bounding boxes.Subsequently,a visual attention-guided Bi-directional LSTM model is proposed for the final suspicious fall event detection.The proposed method is demonstrated using two different datasets to illustrate the efficiency.The proposed method is evaluated by comparing it with other state-of-the-art methods,showing that it achieves 96.9%accuracy,good performance,and robustness.Hence,it is accep-table to monitor and detect suspicious fall events.

Stability switches in a Cohen-Grossberg neural network with multi-delays

In this paper, we consider a Cohen-Grossberg neural network with three delays. Regard- ing time delays as a parameter, we investigate the effect of time delays on its dynamics. We show that there exist stability switches for time delays under certain conditions and the conditions for the existence of periodic oscillations are given by discussing the associated characteristic equation. Numerical simulations are given to illustrate the obtained results and interesting network behaviors are observed, such as multiple stability switches of the network equilibrium and synchronous （asynchronous） oscillations.
