Bipartite Synchronization of Multiple Memristor-Based Neural Networks With Antagonistic Interactions

摘要

In this article, by introducing a signed graph to describe the coopetition interactions among network nodes, the mathematical model of multiple memristor-based neural networks (MMNNs) with antagonistic interactions is established. Since the cooperative and competitive interactions coexist, the states of MMNNs cannot reach complete synchronization. Instead, they will reach the bipartite synchronization: all nodes' states will reach an identical absolute value but opposite sign. To reach bipartite synchronization, two kinds of the novel node- and edge-based adaptive strategies are proposed, respectively. First, based on the global information of the network nodes, a node-based adaptive control strategy is constructed to solve the bipartite synchronization problem of MMNNs. Secondly, a local edge-based adaptive algorithm is proposed, where the weight values of edges between two nodes will change according to the designed adaptive law. Finally, two simulation examples validate the effectiveness of the proposed adaptive controllers and bipartite synchronization criteria.
