Stability and Synchronization of a Fractional Neutral Higher-Order Neural Network System

摘要

We discuss the stability and synchronization of some neural network systems with more than one feature. They are of higher-order, of fractional order and also involving delays of neutral type. Each one of these features presents substantial difficulties to overcome. We prove stability and synchronization of Mittag-Leffler type. This rate is fairly reasonable in case of fractional order. This leads us to prove a neutral fractional version of the well-known Halanay inequality which is interesting by itself. Another feature of the present work is the treatment of unbounded activation functions. The condition of uniform boundedness of the activation functions was commonly used in the literature.
