Adaptive observer-based projective synchronization for chaotic neural networks with mixed time delays

摘要

This paper addresses adaptive projective synchronization of chaotic neural networks with mixed time delays based on an observer-based design strategy. For this, the idea of designing nonlinear state observers is used, and a novel adaptive observer-based controller is given to provide projective synchronization between the master and the slave chaotic systems. Lyapunov theorem is also utilized to obtain the adaptation laws for tuning the controller when the parameters of the master system are unknown. The proposed control scheme is successfully applied for projective synchronization of two chaotic neural networks with mixed delays. The simulation results demonstrate the feasibility and efficiency of the presented method. (C) 2016 The Physical Society of the Republic of China (Taiwan). Published by Elsevier B.V.
