Delay-independent stability criteria for complex-valued BAM neutral-type neural networks with time delays

This paper focuses on the global asymptotic stability of complex-valued bidirectional associative memory (BAM) neutral-type neural networks with time delays. By virtue of homeomorphism theory, inequality techniques and Lyapunov functional, a set of delay-independent sufficient conditions is established for assuring the existence, uniqueness and global asymptotic stability of an equilibrium point of the considered complex-valued BAM neutral-type neural network model. The assumption on boundedness of the activation functions is not required, and the LMI-based criteria are easy to be checked and executed in practice. Finally, we give one example with simulation to show the applicability and effectiveness of our main results.
