Complete stability of delayed recurrent neural networks with Gaussian activation functions. (English) Zbl 1432.34093

Summary: This paper addresses the complete stability of delayed recurrent neural networks with Gaussian activation functions. By means of the geometrical properties of Gaussian function and algebraic properties of nonsingular \(M\)-matrix, some sufficient conditions are obtained to ensure that for an \(n\)-neuron neural network, there are exactly \(3^k\) equilibrium points with \(0\leq k\leq n\), among which \(2^k\) and \(3^k-2^k\) equilibrium points are locally exponentially stable and unstable, respectively. Moreover, it concludes that all the states converge to one of the equilibrium points; i.e., the neural networks are completely stable. The derived conditions herein can be easily tested. Finally, a numerical example is given to illustrate the theoretical results.
