On stability analysis for neural networks with interval time-varying delays via some new augmented Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional

Abstract This paper is concerned with the problem of stability analysis of neural networks with interval time-varying delays. It is assumed that the lower bound of time-varying delays is not restricted to be zero. By constructing a newly augmented Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional which has not been proposed yet and utilizing some integral information on activation function as elements of augmented vectors, an improved stability criterion with the framework of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) is introduced in Theorem 1. Based on the result of Theorem 1 and utilizing the property of the positiveness of Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional, a further relaxed stability condition will be proposed in Theorem 2. The effectiveness and less conservatism of the proposed theorems will be illustrated via three numerical examples.
