Abstract:
We utilize the Lyapunov function method to analyze stability of continuous nonlinear neural networks with delays and obtain some new sufficient conditions ensuring the globally asymptotic stability independent of delays. Three main conditions imposed on the weighting matrices are established. (i). The spectral radius rho(M(-1)(W0 + Wtau)K) < 1. (ii). The row norm M(-1)(W0 + Wtau)K + P(-1) ((W0 + Wtau)KM(-1))T P infinity < 2. (iii). mu2(W0) + Wtau2,F < (m/k). These three conditions are independent to each other. The delayed Hopfield network, Bidirectional associative memory network and cellular neural network are special cases of the network model considered in this paper. So we improve some previous works of other researchers.

BIBO stability of continuous and discrete -time systems
To determine the BIBO stability, the convolution integral is utilized when a bounded continuous-time input is applied to a Linear Time-Invariant (LTI) system.
Feedback control systems
Linear feedback systems are theoretical models that simplify analysis and design. These systems operate under the principle that their output is directly proportional to their input within certain ranges. For instance, an amplifier in a control system behaves linearly as long as the input signal remains within a specific range. However, most physical systems exhibit inherent nonlinearity...
