Exponential Stability of DSNNs via Improved Zero Equations With Unrestricted Weight Matrices
摘要
This paper addresses the issue of exponential stability for discrete-time switched neural networks (DSNNs) with time-varying delays. The considered system switches from one mode to another according to the mode-dependent average dwell-time (MDADT), which is more practical than classical average dwell-time (ADT) switching. Moreover, the specific goal is to use some improved zero equations with unrestricted weight matrices, which are provided to obtain more free variables. In addition, the augmented Lyapunov-Krasovskii functionals (LKFs) containing some new state-related vectors are proposed under MDADT switching signal, which effectively obviate the appearance for high-order polynomials. Furthermore, an augmented delay-product-type LKF is also established for enhancing the stability conditions of DSNNs. Then, based on the above methods and some classic inequalities, less conservative stability conditions are provided for DSNNs with time-varying delays. Finally, two numerical examples are offered to show the validity of obtained results.
