Dissipativity Analysis for Neural Networks With Time-Varying Delays via a Delay-Product-Type Lyapunov Functional
Abstract:
This article is concerned with the problem of dissipativity and stability analysis for a class of neural networks (NNs) with time-varying delays. First, a new augmented Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional (LKF), including some delay-product-type terms, is proposed, in which the information on time-varying delay and system states is taken into full consideration. Second, by employing a generalized free-matrix-based inequality and its simplified version to estimate the derivative of the proposed LKF, some improved delay-dependent conditions are derived to ensure that the considered NNs are strictly ( Q , S , R )- γ -dissipative. Furthermore, the obtained results are applied to passivity and stability analysis of delayed NNs. Finally, two numerical examples and a real-world problem in the quadruple tank process are carried out to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Propagation of Action Potentials
Neurons (nerve cells) have a resting membrane potential, with a slightly negative charge inside compared to outside. This is maintained by ion channels, such as sodium (Na+) and potassium (K+) channels, which control the flow of ions. When a stimulus, like a touch or a signal from another neuron, triggers the neuron, sodium channels open, allowing sodium ions to...
