Li-Function Activated Zhang Neural Network for Online Solution of Time-Varying Linear Matrix Inequality

摘要

In the previous work, a typical recurrent neural network termed Zhang neural network (ZNN) has been developed for various time-varying problems solving. Based on the previous work, by exploiting a special activation function (i.e., Li activation function), the resultant ZNN model is presented and investigated in this paper for online solution of time-varying linear matrix inequality (TVLMI). For such a Li-function activated ZNN (LFAZNN) model, theoretical results are provided to show its excellent computational performance on solving the TVLMI. That is, the presented LFAZNN model has the property of finite-time convergence. Comparative simulation results with two illustrative examples further substantiate the efficacy of the presented LFAZNN model for TVLMI solving.
