Novel stability criteria of T-S fuzzy hopfield neural networks with time-varying delays and uncertainties
Caigen Zhou, Xiaoqin Zeng, Jianglong Yu · 2014
The problem of asymptotic stability for Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy Hopfield neural networks with time-varying delays is studied in this paper. Based on the Lyapunov functional method, new delay-dependent stability criteria are derived in terms of Linear Matrix Inequalities (LMIs) that can be calculated easily by the LMI Toolbox in MATLAB. The proposed approach does not involve free weighting matrices and can provide less conservative results than some existing ones. Besides, numerical examples are given to show the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
