Stochastic stability analysis of fuzzy Hopfield neural networks with time-varying delays

摘要

The ordinary Takagi-Sugeno (TS) fuzzy models have provided an approach to represent complex nonlinear systems to a set of linear sub-models by using fuzzy sets and fuzzy reasoning. In this paper, stochastic fuzzy Hopfield neural networks with time-varying delays (SFVDHNNs) are studied. The model of SFVDHNN is first establisbed as a modified TS fuzzy model in which the consequent parts are composed of a set of stochastic Hopfield neural networks with time-varying delays. Secondly, the global exponential stability in the mean square for SFVDHNN is studied by using the Lyapunov-Krasovskii approach. Stability criterion is derived in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs), which can be effectively solved by some standard numerical packages. © 2005 IEEE.
