Event-Triggered Exponential Synchronization of the Switched Neural Networks With Frequent Asynchronism
Abstract:
The synchronization for a class of switched uncertain neural networks (NNs) with frequent asynchronism based on event-triggered control is researched in this article. Compared with existing works that require one switching during an inter-event interval, frequent switching is allowed in this article. By employing controller-mode-dependent Lyapunov-Krasovskii functionals (LKFs), we devise the control strategy to guarantee that the switched NNs can be synchronized. The proposed LKFs can make full use of system information. Using an improved integral inequality, some sufficient stability conditions formed by linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) are derived for the synchronization of switched uncertain NNs. Average dwell time (ADT) is obtained in the form of inequality that includes the maximum inter-event interval. In addition, the existence of lower bound of inter-event interval is discussed to avoid Zeno behavior. At last, the feasibility of the proposed method is proven by a numerical example.

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...
