Finite-Time and Fixed-Time Synchronization of Coupled Memristive Neural Networks With Time Delay. Academic Article uri icon

abstract

  • This article is devoted to analyzing the finite-time and fixed-time synchronization of coupled memristive neural networks with time delays. The synchronization is leaderless rather than leader-follower as the tracking targets are uncertain. By designing a proper controller and using the Lyapunov method, several sufficient conditions are obtained to achieve the finite-time and fixed-time synchronization of coupled memristive neural networks by introducing a class of special auxiliary matrices. Moreover, the settling times can be estimated for finite-time synchronization that depends on the initial values as well as fixed-time synchronization that is uniformly bounded for any initial values. Finally, two examples are presented to substantiate the effectiveness of the theoretical results.
