Abstract

In this paper, a new approach is proposed for stability issues of neutral-type neural networks (DNNs) with constant delay. First, the semi-free weighting matrices are proposed and used instead of the known free weighting matrices to express the relationship between the terms in the Leibniz-Newton formula to simplify the system synthesis and to obtain less computation demand. Second, global exponential stability conditions which are less conservative and restrictive than the known results are derived. At the same time, based on the above approach, fewer variable matrices are introduced in the construction of the Lyapunov functional and augmented Lyapunov functional. Two examples are given to show their effectiveness and advantages over others.
