Global Exponential Stability for Complex-Valued Recurrent Neural Networks With Asynchronous Time Delays

In this paper, we investigate the global exponential stability for complex-valued recurrent neural networks with asynchronous time delays by decomposing complex-valued networks to real and imaginary parts and construct an equivalent real-valued system. The network model is described by a continuous-time equation. There are two main differences of this paper with previous works: 1) time delays can be asynchronous, i.e., delays between different nodes are different, which make our model more general and 2) we prove the exponential convergence directly, while the existence and uniqueness of the equilibrium point is just a direct consequence of the exponential convergence. Using three generalized norms, we present some sufficient conditions for the uniqueness and global exponential stability of the equilibrium point for delayed complex-valued neural networks. These conditions in our results are less restrictive because of our consideration of the excitatory and inhibitory effects between neurons; so previous works of other researchers can be extended. Finally, some numerical simulations are given to demonstrate the correctness of our obtained results.
