Abstract:
In this paper, a new three-dimensional fractional-order Hopfield-type neural network with delay is proposed. The system has a unique equilibrium point at the origin, which is a saddle point with index two, hence unstable. Intermittent chaos is found in this system. The complex dynamics are analyzed both theoretically and numerically, including intermittent chaos, periodicity, and stability. Those phenomena are confirmed by phase portraits, bifurcation diagrams, and the Largest Lyapunov exponent. Furthermore, a synchronization method based on the state observer is proposed to synchronize a class of time-delayed fractional-order Hopfield-type neural networks.
