Delay dependent stability results for fuzzy BAM neural networks with Markovian jumping parameters

摘要

This paper deals with the delay-dependent asymptotic stability analysis problem for a class of fuzzy bidirectional associative memory (BAM) neural networks with time-varying interval delays and Markovian jumping parameters by Takagi–Sugeno (T–S) fuzzy model. The nonlinear delayed BAM neural networks are first established as a modified T–S fuzzy model in which the consequent parts are composed of a set of Markovian jumping BAM neural networks with time-varying interval delays. The jumping parameters considered here are generated from a continuous-time discrete-state homogeneous Markov process, which are governed by a Markov process with discrete and finite-state space. The new type of Markovian jumping matrices Pk and Qk are introduced in this paper. The parameter uncertainties are assumed to be norm bounded and the delay is assumed to be time-varying and belong to a given interval, which means that the lower and upper bounds of interval time-varying delays are available. A new delay-dependent stability condition is derived in terms of linear matrix inequality by constructing a new Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional and introducing some free-weighting matrices. Numerical examples are given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed methods.
