Finite-time synchronization control of a class of memristor-based recurrent neural networks

Fast synchronization of complex dynamical networks with time-varying delay via periodically intermittent control

“…If Lyapunov functionV (t) ≤ −αV (t) (p = 0) when controllers are added into the network and the control rate θ = 1. Many previous results focus on this case (see [8,[24][25][26][27]). …”

“…) 2 , the error systems (4) would be finite-time synchronized via continuous control, while this trivial case have been investigated by many previous works [8,[24][25][26][27]29]. Hence, this case is not discussed in this paper.…”

“…Synchronization plays a very important role in many contexts, such as synchronous communication, signal synchronization (for example, synchronization between video and audio signals), firefly bioluminescence synchronization, geostationary satellites, synchronous motors, database synchronization [1][2][3][4][5]. So far, many effective control approaches have been proposed to achieve synchronization, such as adaptive control [6][7], feedback control [8][9], pinning control [10][11], impulsive control [12][13] and intermittent control [14][15][16][17][18][19].…”

Finite‐time synchronisation of neural networks with discrete and distributed delays via periodically intermittent memory feedback control

“…That is why finite-time control problem becomes a hot topic nowadays. Finite-time synchronization of systems without time delay by using a feedback controller was investigated [13,30]. Finite-time synchronization of systems with time delay by designing a non-smooth controller and a smooth controller were studied [33]- [35], [36].…”

Semiglobal Finite-Time Synchronization of Complex Dynamical Networks via Periodically Intermittent Control

“…Meanwhile, lots of control approaches have been developed to synchronize nonlinear systems such as adaptive control [9,10], feedback control [11,12], observer control [13,14], impulsive control [15][16][17][18][19], and intermittent control [20][21][22][23][24][25][26]. Among these control approaches and other control methods, the discontinuous control methods, such as impulsive control and intermittent control, have received much interest because they are practical and easily implemented in engineering fields such as transportation and communication.…”
