Global Synchronization of Multiple Recurrent Neural Networks With Time Delays via Impulsive Interactions.
In this paper, new results on the global synchronization of multiple recurrent neural networks (NNs) with time delays via impulsive interactions are presented. Impulsive interaction means that a number of NNs communicate with each other at impulse instants only, while they are independent at the remaining time. The communication topology among NNs is not required to be always connected and can switch ON and OFF at different impulse instants. By using the concept of sequential connectivity and the properties of stochastic matrices, a set of sufficient conditions depending on time delays is derived to ascertain global synchronization of multiple continuous-time recurrent NNs. In addition, a counterpart on the global synchronization of multiple discrete-time NNs is also discussed. Finally, two examples are presented to illustrate the results.
