Finite-time Mittag-Leffler synchronization of fractional-order complex-valued memristive neural networks with time delay

Without dividing the complex-valued systems into two real-valued ones, a class of fractional-order complex-valued memristive neural networks(FCVMNNs) with time delay is investigated. Firstly, based on the complex-valued sign function, a novel complex-valued feedback controller is devised to research such systems. Under the framework of Filippov solution, differential inclusion theory and Lyapunov stability theorem, the finite-time Mittag-Leffler synchronization(FTMLS) of FCVMNNs with time delay can be realized. Meanwhile, the upper bound of the synchronization settling time(SST) is less conservative than previous results. In addition, by adjusting controller parameters, the global asymptotic synchronization of FCVMNNs with time delay can also be realized, which improves and enrich some existing results. Lastly,some simulation examples are designed to verify the validity of conclusions.

Synchronization of Stochastic Memristive Neural Networks with Retarded and Advanced Argument

In this paper, we discuss the driving-response synchronization problem for two memristive neural networks with retarded and advanced arguments under the condition of additional noise. The control law is related to the linear time-delay feedback term, and the discontinuous feedback term. Moreover, the random different equation is used to prove the stability of this theory. At the end, the simulation results verify the correctness of the theoretical results.

This paper is devoted to event-triggered synchronization of delayed memristive neural networks with H∞and passivity performance.The aim is to guarantee the exponential synchronization and mixed H∞and passivity control for memristive neural networks by using event-triggered control.Firstly,a switching system is constructed under the event-triggered control strategy.Then,by adopting a piece-wise Lyapunov functional,a sufficient condition is established for the exponential synchronization and mixed H_(∞)and passivity performance.Moreover,an event-triggered controller design scheme is proposed using matrix decoupling method.Finally,the effectiveness of the designed controller is exemplified by a numerical example.

Memory Analysis for Memristors and Memristive Recurrent Neural Networks

Traditional recurrent neural networks are composed of capacitors, inductors, resistors, and operational amplifiers.Memristive neural networks are constructed by replacing resistors with memristors. This paper focuses on the memory analysis,i.e. the initial value computation, of memristors. Firstly, we present the memory analysis for a single memristor based on memristors’ mathematical models with linear and nonlinear drift.Secondly, we present the memory analysis for two memristors in series and parallel. Thirdly, we point out the difference between traditional neural networks and those that are memristive. Based on the current and voltage relationship of memristors, we use mathematical analysis and SPICE simulations to demonstrate the validity of our methods.

A memristive Hopfield neural network(MHNN)with a special activation gradient is proposed by adding a suitable memristor to the Hopfield neural network(HNN)with a special activation gradient.The MHNN is simulated and dynamically analyzed,and implemented on FPGA.Then,a new pseudo-random number generator(PRNG)based on MHNN is proposed.The post-processing unit of the PRNG is composed of nonlinear post-processor and XOR calculator,which effectively ensures the randomness of PRNG.The experiments in this paper comply with the IEEE 754-1985 high precision32-bit floating point standard and are done on the Vivado design tool using a Xilinx XC7 Z020 CLG400-2 FPGA chip and the Verilog-HDL hardware programming language.The random sequence generated by the PRNG proposed in this paper has passed the NIST SP800-22 test suite and security analysis,proving its randomness and high performance.Finally,an image encryption system based on PRNG is proposed and implemented on FPGA,which proves the value of the image encryption system in the field of data encryption connected to the Internet of Things(Io T).

Global Synchronization of Stochastically Disturbed Memristive Neurodynamics via Discontinuous Control Laws

This paper presents the theoretical results on the master-slave(or driving-response) synchronization of two memristive neural networks in the presence of additive noise. First,a control law with a linear time-delay feedback term and a discontinuous feedback term is introduced. By utilizing the stability theory of stochastic differential equations, sufficient conditions are derived for ascertaining global synchronization in mean square using this control law. Second, an adaptive control law consisting of a linear feedback term and a discontinuous feedback term is designed to achieve global synchronization in mean square, and it does not need prior information of network parameters or random disturbances. Finally, simulation results are presented to substantiate the theoretical results.

Almost periodic solutions of memristive multidirectional associative memory neural networks with mixed time delays

Traditional biological neural networks cannot simulate the real situation of the abrupt synaptic connections between neurons while modeling associative memory of human brains.In this paper,the memristive multidirectional associative memory neural networks(MAMNNs)with mixed time-varying delays are investigated in the sense of Filippov solution.First,three steps are given to prove the existence of the almost periodic solution.Two new lemmas are proposed to prove the boundness of the solution and the asymptotical almost periodicity of the solution by constructing Lyapunov function.Second,the uniqueness and global exponential stability of the almost periodic solution of memristive MAMNNs are investigated by a new Lyapunov function.The sufficient conditions guaranteeing the properties of almost periodic solution are derived based on the relevant definitions,Halanay inequality and Lyapunov function.The investigation is an extension of the research on the periodic solution and almost periodic solution of bidirectional associative memory neural networks.Finally,numerical examples with simulations are presented to show the validity of the main results.
