Quasisynchronization of Heterogeneous Neural Networks With Time-Varying Delays via Event-Triggered Impulsive Controls
Abstract:
Time delays are unavoidable since they are ubiquitous and may have a great impact on the performance of neural networks. Resources efficiency is a common concern in many networked systems with limited resources. This article investigates quasisynchronization of the heterogeneous neural networks with time-varying delays via event-triggered impulsive controls which combine the impulsive control and the event-triggered technique. The centralized and distributed event-triggered impulsive controls are, respectively, presented. The suitable Lyapunov functions are constructed, and the triggering functions are derived, which guarantee that not only are the synchronization errors less than a non-negative bound but also the Zeno behaviors can be eliminated. It is suggested that the distributed one has great superiority in taking up fewer resources compared with the time-triggered impulsive control. Numerical examples are proposed to verify the validity of the centralized and distributed control methods.

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...
