Stabilization of Discrete-Time Stochastic Delayed Neural Networks by Intermittent Control

This article investigates the stabilization of discrete-time stochastic neural networks with time-varying delay via aperiodically intermittent control (AIC). A comprehensive analysis of the stabilization of discrete-time delayed systems via AIC is provided, where the Lyapunov function method and the Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional method are investigated, respectively. Then, three stabilization criteria are given, which extend previous works from the continuous-time framework to the discrete-time one, and the average activation time ratio (AATR) of AIC is estimated. It is highlighted that for the Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional method, a more flexible estimation for the AATR can be obtained. Finally, the differences and the advantages of the three stabilization criteria are illustrated by numerical simulations.
