Preface

The rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) has been profoundly changing our daily life as well as the human society. Nowadays, the relevant disciplines of AI technology have been promoted from different aspects including but not limited to theoretical modeling, technological innovation and software and hardware upgrades, etc. To date, the AI technology has been triggering a chain of breakthroughs and promoting various fields of society from networked and digital to intelligent. Since the announcement from the HP Lab on the experimental prototyping of the memristor, memristors and memristive devices have gained wide research attention for their prospective applications in nonvolatile memories, logic devices, neuromorphic devices, and neuromorphic self-organized computation and learning. In the context of neural networks, synapses are essential elements for computation and information storage, which needs to remember its past dynamical history, store a continuous set of states, and be “plastic” according to the synaptic neuronal activity. All these cannot be accomplished by a resistor in traditional recurrent neural networks (RNNs). When the resistors are replaced by the memristors, the resulting memristive neural networks (MNNs) could rather completely solve these problems. Meanwhile, the implemented MNNs could be more efficient than the traditional RNNs when applied in brain emulation, combinatorial optimization, knowledge acquisition, and pattern recognition. As such, the dynamics analysis problems, such as stability and synchronization for MNNs, have recently received considerable research attention and a rich body of relevant literature has been available for different kinds of MNNs. It should be mentioned that almost all results obtained so far have been exclusively for continuous time MNNs and the corresponding results on discrete-time memristive neural networks (DMNNs) have been much fewer. On the other hand, in real-world applications especially in the networked situations, certain frequently-occurring engineering-related issues, such as time-delays, parameter uncertainties, random disturbances, limited communication bandwidth and incomplete information, have proved to be the main sources of system instability as well as performance deterioration, and further imposed fundamentally new challenges on the study of various types of neural networks. When discussing the stability analysis and estimator design problems, these engineering-oriented phenomena cannot be neglected. In contrast, they must be taken into simultaneous consideration with the neural networks

Preface

dynamics under a unified framework so as to achieve a satisfactory level of performance. In this book, faced with various sorts of network-induced phenomena, we discuss the stability analysis and estimator design problems for discrete-time MNNs subject to time-delays. By drawing on a variety of theories and methodologies such as Lyapunov stability theory, delay-dependent technique, graph theory and certain convex optimization algorithms, the study on stability analysis and state estimation have been approached from different perspectives including systems sciences, control theory, signal processing and optimization. Specifically, in each chapter, the analysis problems are firstly considered, where the stability, synchronization and other performances (e.g. reliability, robustness, disturbances attenuation level) are investigated within a unified theoretical framework. In this stage, some novel notions are put forward to reflect the engineering practice in a much more realistic yet comprehensive way. Then, the estimator design issues are discussed where sufficient conditions are derived to ensure the existence of the desired estimators with the guaranteed performances. Finally, the theories and techniques developed in previous parts are applied to deal with some issues in several emerging research areas. This book is a research monograph whose intended audience is graduate and postgraduate students as well as researchers. Hongjian Liu Wuhu, China Zidong Wang London, UK Lifeng Ma Nanjing, China

1 Introduction

The rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) has been profoundly changing our daily life as well as the human society. Nowadays, the relevant disciplines of AI technology have been promoted from different aspects including but not limited to theoretical modeling, technological innovation and software and hardware upgrades, etc. To date, the AI technology has been triggering a chain of breakthroughs and promoting various fields of society from networked and digital to intelligent. The artificial neural network (ANN) is one of the key cornerstones of the development of AI technology, which has once again attracted widespread attention all over the world. Artificial neural network, also referred to as neural network, is a mathematical or computational model that mimics the structure and function of biological, especially human, brain neural networks. This idea of mimicking the function of the biological brain directly affects the development of AI technology. It should be noted that it is of great significance for the development of AI to better realize the “intelligence-like-brain”, thereby completing the decision-making behavior, program behavior and reflection behavior of the human brain. In view of this, researchers have paid considerable attention to the key link of ANN to realize human brain bionics, namely “bionic synapse”. It is widely known that the synapse of human brain neurons is not only the transmission channel of information, but also the basic unit of human brain learning and storing information [105, 110, 149]. On the other hand, along with the appearance of deep neural network (DNN) algorithm, the promotion of parallel computing of graphics processor and the emergence of big data, it has been found that the traditional Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS) transistor is difficult to meet the current requirements of mass data computation due to its physical defects such as large size, high energy consumption and inability of multiple storage. These defects pose many difficulties for the realization of “bionic synapse”, and thus, largely hinder the theory and technology from being applied. The theory of memristor and its physical realization have brought a new dawn to conquer the aforementioned bottlenecks during the development of ANN. The memristor-based neural network, like biological brain, has the ability to handle multiple tasks at the same time. Most importantly, the memristor-based neural network does not require repeated data movement when processing large amounts of data, which is particularly suitable for machine learning systems. Therefore, memristor is a better choice for the implementation of neural 1

Introduction

networks in comparison to the traditional computer system structure. What is more exciting is that, a neural network chip has been created by Dmitri Strukov and his colleagues from University of California and State University of New York using only memristor [62], which is an important step toward creating larger-scale neural networks. In this chapter, we give a review of recent advances on memristive neural networks with emphasis on the issues of stability analysis and state estimation. The rest of the chapter is organized as follows. Section 1.1 introduces the background of the memristive neural networks. Section 1.2 provides the overview of recent progress on the study of MNNs under certain wellstudied engineering-oriented complexities. Several frequently utilized design techniques are presented in Section 1.3 when facing synthesis issues relevant to MNNs. Section 1.4 gives the whole structure of this book.

Background on Memristive Neural Networks

ANNs have now been widely utilized in image processing [12], pattern recognition [107], and dynamic optimization [185], and accordingly, the analysis and synthesis issues of ANNs have also been research hotspots in the field of neural networks. During the past few decades, researchers have devoted a large amount of effort in the area, resulting in a series of results published in the

literature, see, e.g. [61, 69, 80–82, 84, 85, 112, 117, 127, 140, 143, 168, 201, 208]. It should be pointed out that memristive neural network (MNN) is a special type of ANNs that is based on the “memristor bionic synapse”, which replaces the traditional resistors with memristors in the circuit realization process. Nowadays, thanks to the fast development of computer science, on one hand, the digital technology is widely applied in modern industrial control systems; on the other hand, for the purpose of obtaining better control performance or simplifying the design procedure, the continuous systems or processes are usually discretized first before system design. As for the mathematical model of MNNs for continuous or discrete cases, it can be described, respectively, by dynamical differential or difference equations whose parameters are state-dependent. Based on these models, the analysis and application issues of MNNs have attracted widespread attention from both academia and industry. A multitude of research work has been reported in the literature, most of which, however, are relevant to the continuous MNNs and the corresponding discrete case is largely neglected despite its stronger engineering insights. This is mainly due to the lack of appropriate paradigms capable of dealing with state-dependent parameters in the context of discrete memristive neural networks (DMNNs) and the resulting unpredictable nonlinearities. In general, the DMNN has not yet been adequately investigated and the stability analysis and estimator design problems have rarely been discussed, which have recently become very popular in communities of control science and signal processing. In addition, due to the fast growth of network communication technology in recent years, more and more systems have been implemented via networks, where the computer communication network has been adopted for the connection between estimators and remote sensors. The signal is then transmitted through the connected communication network, which not only avoids laying a point-to-point dedicated line, but also achieves effective remote operation, thereby enhancing the system’s flexibility and reliability. Up to now, there have been a large number of results regarding the stability of various types of neural networks including MNNs. On the other hand, during recent years, state estimation problem in the context of networked system has become a hotspot in the area of control theory and engineering, and has shown a promising application prospects within various fields such as coordinated control of communication-network-based underwater robots and unmanned vehicles, as well as advanced control of complex industrial systems. Notice that the current research on systems in the network environment mainly focuses on relatively simple cases. For instance, most results have been obtained with certain strict assumptions that the communication ability of network is unconstrained or the target system is linear and time-invariant. Obviously, these results are no longer applicable for an MNN with statedependent parameters which actually can be described by a time-varying system with strong nonlinearity. Consequently, it is a new challenge to investigate the state estimation issue for MNNs while taking full consideration

Introduction

of the impacts on the performance from the network communication capability and system nonlinear dynamics. In summary, it is of profound significance, from both theoretical research and engineering practice, to study the stability analysis as well as state estimation problems of MNNs.

Memristor and Its Circuit Realization

Memristor, also known as memory resistor, is recognized as the fourth passive electronic component discovered after resistors, capacitors and inductors. It was first presented in 1971 by Professor Leon O. Chua from the University of California, Berkeley [18]. The physical realization of the memristor, however, has not made a breakthrough due to the limitations of the processing technology at that time. It was not until 2008 that the physical entity of the first memristor was developed by HP Labs, which consists of a double-layered TiO2 film [145], as shown in Figure 1.2. In 2010, Professor Wei Lv and his colleagues at the University of Michigan filled a memristor made of a mixture of Ag + Si into the intersection of two metal electrodes, and proposed the first electrical neural circuit by using synapse of a memristor [56], as shown in Figure 1.3. Professor Lv also verified in the literature [56] that the memristor is not only small in size (nanoscale), low in energy consumption, but also has unique memory characteristics to the internal state of the system. It is the memory characteristics that enable the memristor to realize the mechanism of synaptic plasticity and make it the most similar electronic component to the synaptic function of the human brain, thereby paving the way of the research on MNNs. In the era of nano-scale high-density integrated circuits, the memory characteristics and learning functions of brain-like synapses of memristors make the neural networks comprised of memristors much closer to the human brain, and at the same time, get rid of weight constraints in the circuit realization of the traditional neural network design. Since the first memristor invented by Hewlett-Packard Laboratories in the United States, the research on memristors and memristor-based nonlinear systems has received extensive attention, especially the theoretical study of MNNs with the background of circuit systems. Recently, it has become one of

the hotspots in the field of ANN and other relevant areas, see [1,10,11,58,111] and the references therein. Nowadays, the work regarding memristor mainly focuses on two aspects: 1) Following HP Labs, researchers aim to discover more economical materials; 2) Based on results provided by Professor Leon O. Chua, investigation is carried out from the aspects of establishment of system model as well as analysis and application of dynamical behavior. As for the study of system dynamical behavior, it mainly concentrates on the following three directions: the first is the analysis of stability and attractiveness of MNNs; the second is the analysis of periodic solution and homomorphic orbital behavior; and the third is its chaotic phenomenon and synchronous control. It should be emphasized that the memristor-based system, especially the MNN with dynamical behavior, not only plays a key role in the application in real-world industrial engineering, but also provides technical support for improving or manufacturing new memristors. As such, it is of significance to study the stability issue for MNNs and establish a unified theoretical framework. Note that because of the memory characteristics of memristors, memristorbased neural networks can be generally described as a dynamical differential equation with state-dependent parameters [175]. It is usually assumed in the theoretical analysis that the synaptic weight of MNN takes the largest absolute value, and the dynamical behavior is then discussed by utilizing different approaches and theories such as set-valued mapping, differential inclusion, nonsmooth analysis, Filipov functional, M -matrix method, Lyapunov functional, ω-measure and linear matrix inequality (LMI), see, e.g. [159,174,177,191,192]. For instance, in [177], a detailed mathematical derivation has been proposed for RNN with memristor delay. Since then, the research work has gradually started for MNN system.

1.1.2

Stability Analysis and State Estimation for MNNs

So far, most of the existing results concerning MNNs are mainly on the analysis of dynamical behaviors such as stability, synchronization or chaos in the continuous case. The corresponding investigations have been much fewer when it comes to its discrete counterpart. On the other hand, the problem of state

Introduction

estimation has always been popular in the field of complex networks [20,126]. Moreover, in recent years, the corresponding state estimation issue for neural networks has stirred tremendous research interest mainly due to the fact that it is usually impractical, if not impossible, to directly access the states of neurons. Consequently, in these occasions, before taking the advantages from the implementation of neural networks in classification, approximation and optimization, the states of the neurons should be estimated firstly by utilizing the available network measurements, see [126, 165] for examples. More specifically, in [54], the authors have considered the state estimation for a class of neural networks with both stochastic and uncertain dynamics. In addition, for a sort of coupled stochastic networks, the data packet dropout has been studied in [73] based on which the robust estimator has been designed with guaranteed performance. When it comes to the estimation issue for MNNs, some preliminary results have been obtained in [40, 118, 123] by utilizing the passivity theory. Moreover, the framework of Philippov differential inclusion has been adopted in [6,171] to design the state estimator of continuous MNNs with stochasticity and time-delay, respectively. In [118], the estimator has been proposed for a type of continuous MNNs with time-varying delays by resorting to the dissipation theory. Again, it is worth noting that there have been so far relatively fewer results on the stability analysis and estimator design for DMNNs. For DMNN-related dynamics analysis as well as state estimation, a challenge is that the nonsmooth analysis methods and differential inclusion theory that are established for continuous MNNs cannot be directly extended to investigate the discrete counterpart. Thus, novel appropriate paradigm should be developed to deal with the analysis as well as design issues for DMNNs. However, up to now, the corresponding research has been far from adequate, although some limited work has appeared. For instance, in [27, 75], the authors have first described MNNs with state-dependent parameters by a state-switching model, and then the state estimation issue has been handled by virtue of Lyapunov theory and robust analysis.

1.1.3

Recent Progress on Several Types of Neural Networks

Before presenting the review of latest advances on DMNNs, in this subsection, the recent research on several widely seen classes of neural networks that are relevant to MNNs will be introduced, including recurrent neural networks (RNNs), bidirectional associative memory neural networks (BAMNNs) and continuous memristive neural networks (CMNNs), all of which have been playing a pivotal role in both theoretical research and industrial engineering.

RNNs

For decades, it has been generally acknowledged that RNNs possess many remarkable capabilities (e.g. fault tolerance, self-organizing, nonlinear function approximation and self-learning, etc.). Consequently, RNN has attracted more and more research attention and found wide applications in many branches of systems science and signal processing, such as pattern recognition, image processing and combinatorial optimization [79, 109, 161, 205], to name but a few. It is noteworthy that the aforementioned applications would depend largely on the dynamic behavior of RNNs, which subsequently has simulated the extensive research concerning dynamics analysis including but are not limited to, stability, state estimation and synchronization. For some representative work, we refer to [61, 82, 84, 127, 140, 168, 201, 208] and the references therein. The stability of RNN is one of the most studied dynamic behaviors, and many analysis paradigms have been proposed, such as inequality analysis approach, Lyapunov functional scheme, M-matrix technique, topological degree strategy and linear matrix inequality method [43, 47, 137, 167, 176, 212]. To be specific, by resorting to LMI approach, the asymptotic stability has been analyzed in [47, 137] for a class of delayed neural networks. Particularly, the global stability is undoubtedly the most desirable dynamical property for RNNs, which plays a pivotal role in practical engineering and has thus gained tremendous research interest [204]. Moreover, note that in an actual neural network, due to certain probabilistic reasons such as random fluctuations from the release of neurotransmitters, the synaptic transmission would probably confront with stochastic noises [44]. If not appropriately dealt with, such random noises could be one of the main causes for the performance deterioration in real-world practice. Therefore, stochastic RNNs have started to attract researchers’ attention, leading to many results published in the literature, see [75] and the references therein. In practical engineering, RNN can be implemented by a circuit. As an essential element for computation and information storage, the neuron’s synapse is often realized by a resistor which, however, has certain limitations. On one hand, resistor is a volatile device which means that the state information of the neural circuit would disappear with the disappearance of voltage. On the other hand, a neuron often corresponds to multiple synapses, and the large size of the resistors inevitably leads to a significant reduction in the integration density of RNNs, which may exceed the acceptable range in some cases. In view of the above-mentioned problems, it is crucial to develop a new kind of efficient component to reduce the size of circuits while implementing the functions of both processing and information storage, which gives rise to the so-called memristors and memristive neural networks.

Introduction BAMNNs

Late in the 1980s, Kosko first proposed the concept of bidirectional associative memory neural network which was comprised of fully interconnected neurons on two layers [59, 60]. During the past 20 years, researchers have devoted special efforts to the theoretical investigations of BAMNNs with an emphasis on dynamics analysis. Moreover, BAMNNs have so far found wide and successful applications in various industrial areas such as combination optimization, associative memory, image processing, pattern recognition and so forth. It should be pointed out that the dynamic behaviors (e.g. stability, chaos, synchronization, etc.) play a paramount role in the practical applications of BAMNNs. As a sequence, several techniques have been developed to deal with the dynamics behavior analysis of BAMNNs [85, 112, 117, 143] with special concerns on the analysis of stability. As for the practical engineering, the exponential stability is always among the most desirable performances of BAMNNs, which has thus captured special interest in the last decades. Specifically, the exponential stability of neural networks has been revealed to be an indication of the ability to retrieve the stored pattern in many applications such as associative memory [200]. Some latest progress regarding the exponential stability for BAMNNs can be found in [66, 186]. 1.1.3.3

CMNNs

It is now well known that in neural networks, synapses are the most essential units used for computing and storing information. They possess the capability to record the dynamic history, store a series of continuous states, and most importantly, they should be “plastic” according to the activity of synaptic neurons. Unfortunately, by a resistor in traditional recurrent and other sorts of neural networks, these functions cannot be realized, which gives rise to the so-called MNNs. MNNs are developed by replacing resistors with memristors and have the ability to conquer the aforementioned difficulties. Furthermore, as shown in many applications [111], the proposed MNNs have exhibited other advantages over the traditional neural networks such as higher efficiency. Nevertheless, in spite of these merits, the memristors and the resulting MNNs have not received enough attention for nearly four decades ever since the concept was proposed. The key feature of MNNs is that the connection weights coupling the neurons are heavily dependent on their states. As a consequence, MNNs show much richer dynamic behaviors than those of conventional RNNs. In recent years, the dynamics analysis issues for MNNs (such as stability and synchronization), especially the continuous case, have received considerable attention and plenty of research results have been published in the literature discussing various sorts of MNNs such as memristive recurrent neural networks [164], fractional-order MNNs [14], cellular MNNs [33], memristive Hopfield networks [182], chaotic MNNs [202] and memristive complex-value neural networks [157], to name but a few.

MNNs subject to Engineering-Oriented Complexities

Note that MNNs actually can be mathematically modeled by utilizing a series of coupled differential/difference equations and can be characterized by the state-dependent nonlinear systems [176] whose dynamic behaviors are rather rich and complicated. As such, parallel to the development/deployment of the MNNs, much effort has been devoted to investigating the stability of MNNs by borrowing ideas from systems and control theory. Quite a few elegant results have been obtained from different facets, see [108, 156, 164, 179, 181]. For example, in [156], the authors have gained a set of sufficient conditions for MNNs subject to impulse effect to ensure the exponential stability. The Lagrange stability has been discussed in [179] for MNNs whose dynamics are affected by mixed time-delays and the addressed problem has been solved by virtue of non-smooth analysis approach. It should be mentioned that most of obtained results including those aforementioned have been mainly focused on CMNNs. However, in today’s digital world, most information sequences are inherently discrete or should be discretized before implementation in engineering applications. This motivates the initial investigations on the discrete-time neural networks because of its powerful capability in handling sequence-based issues [43]. Unfortunately, despite the remarkable advantages, DMNNs have not been adequately investigated due mainly to the lack of suitable paradigms in a discrete-time setting to depict and deal with the state-dependent behaviors.

1.2

MNNs subject to Engineering-Oriented Complexities

In real-world applications especially in the networked situations, certain frequently occurring engineering-related issues, such as time-delays, parameter uncertainties, random disturbances and incomplete information, have proved to be the main sources of system instability as well as performance deterioration, and further imposed fundamentally new challenges on the study of various types of neural networks. When discussing the stability analysis and estimator design problems, these engineering-oriented phenomena cannot be neglected. In contrast, they must be taken into simultaneous consideration with the neural networks dynamics under a unified framework so as to achieve a satisfactory level of performance. In this section, several extensively studied engineering-oriented phenomena that would make the dynamics of neural networks more complex will be introduced with certain recently developed techniques for analysis and synthesis.

10

1.2.1

Introduction

Stochasticity

It is well known that during the last decades, stochastic systems have exerted a tremendous fascination on many researchers from both academia and industry because of the unavoidable random phenomena frequently seen in practical engineering. Apparently, in the modeling of this kind of systems, the routine way that neglects the uncertain stochastic effects to obtain a conventional deterministic model for analysis and synthesis is no longer appropriate. It is now widely acknowledged that a host of complex practical systems such as engineering systems, social systems, as well as many different types of neuralnetwork-based systems are more suitable to be described by stochastic differential/difference equations [87,95,97]. Consequently, the stability analysis and state estimation issues for dynamical systems subject to random fluctuations or uncertain disturbances have garnered extensive research interest, see [4] for reference. As for the application of a neural network, the signal transmission among the neurons of an actual MNN always confront with random interferences or noisy fluctuations stemming from the release of neurotransmitter or other probabilistic perturbations. These kinds of probabilistic disturbances make the dynamics of the rustling MNNs uncertain and random, which is usually referred to as stochastic MNNs. As mentioned previously, the framework established based on inclusion theory and non-smooth analysis applicable for CMNNs cannot be directly utilized to deal with their discrete counterparts. If not taken into account, these random effects would become the main sources of degradation of system performance. As such, much effort has been dedicated to exploring the stochastic MNNs and to date, the stability analysis has aroused some preliminary research attention. A few scattered pioneering results have appeared, see, e.g. [72, 76, 123] and the references therein.

1.2.2

Time-Delays

Time-delay is now widely recognized as an inherent characteristic of neural networks due to physical hardware limitations, which might bring about certain complicated dynamic behaviors (e.g. oscillation, divergence, etc.) and sometimes even leads to instability [113,115,129,133]. Based on the occurrence mode, time-delays can be generally classified into two types, namely, discrete time-delays and distributed time-delays [15, 17, 86, 100]. Note that real-world engineering systems are often confronted with simultaneous presence of different types of time-delays [53, 82, 96, 99]. Therefore, ever since the introduction in [103], researchers and engineers have poured attention to the delayed neural networks and developed quite a few schemes for stability analysis issues, such as integral inequality approach [61], matrix inequality method [142, 211] and descriptor model transformation technique [36]. Along with the research on stability, the state estimation has gradually become a hotspot in both theoretical research and practical engineering for

MNNs subject to Engineering-Oriented Complexities

11

delayed neural networks, and some work have been done for traditional RNNs [73, 165] and MNNs [75]. For CMNNs, time-delays such as constant delays, time-varying delays and distributed delays have been adopted to characterize the network latency during the data transmissions due to certain physical constraints. The impacts imposed on the dynamical behaviors by the timedelays have been extensively studied [42,179], among which the characteristics of global exponential synchronization for a class of MNNs subject to multiple time-delays have been examined in [42] by means of LMI approach. Recently, various kinds of time-delays have been taken into account when dealing with estimation issues for different neural networks. The time-varying delay has been considered in [55] for static neural networks, while in [57], the addressed discrete neural networks have been assumed to be affected by the mixed time-delays. In [5], the random delays have been examined for discrete stochastic neural networks, where the problem is solved by using a delay-distribution-dependent method. Employing Lyapunov functional in combination with LMI approach, time-varying delays have been discussed in [165] for the estimator design. It should be emphasized that, two timedelays usually occurring in neural networks (namely, leakage and probabilistic delays) start to stir particular interest yet still remain unexplored, see [16,198] and the references therein. Moreover, an army of work has been done regarding RNNs with probabilistic time-varying delays, see, for instance, [5, 137, 144, 198]. Nevertheless, the corresponding study of DMNNs has been relatively scattered despite certain limited results such as [75], and there still exists a huge gap toward the investigation on the estimator design for different classes of DMNNs, let alone the case where various engineering-oriented complexities like multiple time-delays are also involved.

1.2.3

Network-Induced Incomplete Information

In the network environment, the stability analysis and state estimation often suffer from the phenomenon of network-induced incomplete information, which would lead to performance deterioration. In this subsection, we shall discuss several types of network-induced incomplete information that are extensively encountered in engineering practice, such as missing measurements, channel fading, and signal quantization. 1.2.3.1

Missing Measurements

The measurements missing may be caused by many factors such as network congestion, instantaneous sensor failures and limited channel bandwidth in real-world practical engineering. In this case, the measurement data of the system will be lost or partially lost. In recent years, researchers have been working on the state estimation problems subject to measurement missing, see, e.g. [30, 48, 52, 106, 120, 124, 141, 160, 170, 173], among which the literature [141] has introduced a stochastic variable that obeys Bernoulli distribu-

12

Introduction

tion to describe the measurements missing. In [139], such a phenomenon has been expressed by a Markovian jump process. A more general approach that is capable of characterizing both totally and partially missing measurements has been developed in [170] where a random variable is utilized that obeys an arbitrary distribution with known probability. This approach is able to cope with situations in the context of multiple sensors where the missing probability of different sensors is different, and a diagonal matrix can be constructed whose diagonal entries indicate the missing probabilities of the corresponding sensors [170]. The consecutive data packet dropout case has been discussed in [120] by resorting to the Bernoulli distributed random parameters. Based on these established models, much work has then been done to the study of state estimation problem subject to different performance specifications. For instance, in [146], a class of optimal filters has been designed for the system by means of the Riccati equation approach when multiple consecutive measurements missing occurs. With the help of the linear matrix inequality technique, the problem has been solved in [121] for systems with multiple consecutive packet losses, whereas the corresponding problem has been examined in [122]. 1.2.3.2

Channel Fading

In the context of digital data transmission via networks, the phenomenon of channel fading is inevitably occurring. This is mainly because the communication channel has certain physical constraints such as limited bandwidth. Moreover, such fading measurements always happen in a probabilistic way due to the random variation in the network environment [49]. For recurrent neural networks, it is often the case that the measurement output suffers signal fading when being transmitted via unreliable communication network channels for further processing [24, 25, 29]. Although there exist some initial publications concerning the state estimation for RNNs by using fading measurements (e.g. [47, 137]), the relevant results on DMNNs have been much fewer due probably to the level of mathematical difficulties/complexities. 1.2.3.3

Signal Quantization

Due to the limited capacity of transmission channel, systems communicating via networks always confront with signal quantization of the transmitted data [51, 94, 130, 206, 213]. It should be emphasized that in real-world applications especially in the context of networked systems, the signal quantization has proved to be one of the main sources of system instability as well as performance deterioration, and further imposed fundamentally new challenges on the study of networked systems. When discussing the analysis, design and application problems for neural networks, such network-induced quantization effect cannot be neglected. As a result, the relevant research has recently been garnering interest, see, e.g. [119, 135] for some recent results, among which two main techniques have been utilized to deal with the quantization effects. One is to convert the quantization effect into parameter uncertainties whereas

13

the other is to transfer the quantization function to nonlinearities constrained within known sector bound.

1.3

Design Techniques

The complexity of neural networks dynamics makes it extremely challenging to establish a systematic framework for estimator design with desired performances and required specifications. Apparently, it is impractical, if not impossible, to develop one particular procedure capable of tackling all kinds of neural networks; therefore, a host of tools and mechanisms have been proposed to deal with stability analysis and estimator design for specific types of neural networks. In the sequel, we will investigate several techniques that have been widely applied in estimator design of neural networks to meet different design demands.

1.3.1

Event-Triggering Mechanisms

In most of the existing literature, it is always assumed that the state estimator is time-triggered rather than event-triggered. However, in the network environment, it is more attractive to design the state estimator with an event-triggering strategy for the purpose of saving network resources, thereby reducing the heavy communication burden [104]. In addition, the eventtriggering scheme can largely reduce the activating frequency of electronic components in the digital control circuit, and help extend the working life of the circuit. It has proved that the event-triggered scheduling scheme is more suitable for state estimation of MNNs in the network environment. In view of this, particular interest has been poured to state estimation with event-triggering mechanism, and quite a few results have been published, see, e.g. [35, 63, 64, 69, 81, 125, 138, 148, 162, 195, 214]. For example, the eventtriggering approach has been used in [162] for estimator design of delayed RNN. It should be pointed out that the most significant feature of the eventtriggering mechanism is that the input of the desired estimator (i.e. the measurement output) will not be updated until a specific event occurs, and the transmission signal between consecutive updating interval remains unchanged. However, the desired update instant is unknown and should be determined according to the pre-specified triggering condition which usually depends on time, system state and sampled data [35]. The design of triggering condition plays a pivotal role in the estimator synthesis and the subsequent analysis of the resulting impacts on stability and other performances. It is noteworthy that most of the event-triggering mechanisms employed in the existing literature are static, that is, the threshold parameters in the

14

Introduction

triggering condition are fixed [76, 150]. Recently, in order to further achieve the target of energy conservation, the dynamic event-triggering mechanisms have been applied to many systems [39, 70] by adjusting the threshold parameters dynamically at each checking instant. Intuitively, using a dynamic event-triggering mechanism would decrease the total number of released events than using a static one. From this point of view, we can conclude that the employment of the static event-triggering mechanisms possibly results in unnecessary data transmissions and exhibits a conservative solution. It is worth mentioning that the static type of event-triggered mechanism has not been applied extensively in state estimation for MNNs, let alone the case of dynamic triggering schemes.

Network Communication Protocols

In most existing results relevant to the state estimation issues of systems in the network environment, an assumption has usually been made that all the network nodes could simultaneously be allowed to transmit signals via communication channel. It is, however, basically impractical for network-based systems since real-world networks will inevitably face limited bandwidth which would probably lead to network congestions as well as data collisions in the situations of simultaneous multiple accesses. Accordingly, the protocols for communication are adopted to regulate the data transmission sequence of different nodes [7, 188, 210]. Some of the extensively used communication protocols in industrial applications include the Round-Robin (RR) protocol [37, 151], the Weighted Try-Once-Discard (WTOD) protocol [32, 152] and stochastic communication (SC) protocol [136, 147], to name just a few. To date, although some pioneering results have been reported regarding the state estimation for MNNs, see e.g. [75, 76], little effort has been devoted to the constrained communication between the estimator and the network output. In fact, due to the large size of the MNN and the complexity of the tasks to be accomplished, the amount of the measurement data of the network output tends to be huge, and this has placed a great deal of burden on the transmission networks of limited capacity [93]. Due primarily to the limited bandwidth of the network, data collision may probably happen. For the purpose of avoiding this phenomenon and coordinating the network traffic, an effective approach widely employed in the practical engineering is to employ communication protocols like those aforementioned ones, whose mechanisms will be introduced as follows. 1.3.2.1

RR Protocol

As a periodic scheduling scheme, the so-called RR protocol has been widely used in communication, load balancing and server resource allocation [93]. The RR protocol is also named as the time-division multiple access (TDMA) protocol or Token Ring protocol. Under the regulation of the RR protocol,

the allowable transmission steps of all the nodes are determined by applying a fixed circular order. Up to now, many researchers have introduced the RR protocol to govern the data transmission when dealing the network-based communication problems and designing the remote estimator with an equal allocation scheme of resource, thereby avoiding data congestion and saving communication energy [67, 132, 155, 187, 216]. Recently, the RR protocol has been extensively utilized in the estimation problems for neural networks such as the ANNs in [21, 93], Markovian jump neural networks in [67] and MNN in [193]. 1.3.2.2

WTOD Protocol

The so-called Weighted Try-Once-Discard protocol is categorized to the sort of quadratic protocols. By applying the WTOD protocol, the allowable signal transmission steps to certain nodes are assigned by some predetermined quadratic selection principles, which differs from the “periodic assignment” behavior of the RR protocol. WTOD protocol has been widely applied to govern the data propagation over the channels between the neural networks and its remote state estimator. Note that the WTOD protocol is a classical dynamic regulating scheme in associated with the importance of different missions, and obviously, it is more suitable for tasks such as resource allocation than those static scheduling schemes, see e.g. [32, 151, 217]. As such, it is necessary to study how the WTOD protocol can be employed to schedule the possibly huge data communication between the MNN and its state estimator, which still remains open and challenging. 1.3.2.3

SC Protocol

The so-called SC protocol has been first investigated in [147] for continuoustime systems and [31] for discrete-time ones. As a matter of fact, SC protocol is classified to the CSMA/CA protocols, which should be implemented according to the rule of “listen before talk” or “sense before transmit”. It is worth noting that the CSMA/CA protocol may be considered and applied as a modified version of the CSMA protocol. In practical application, such a protocol is able to prevent the network congestion and data collision by means of employing the acknowledgments signal from the communication network to mark each transmission. Up to now, SC protocol has started to attract interest in both theoretical research and engineering application, see, e.g. [2,153,215] for some latest publications.

1.3.3

Set-Membership Technique

In reality, the MNN can be realized by very large scale integration (VLSI) circuits, and the connection weights are implemented by the memristors [176]. Unfortunately, it is often the case that the VLSI circuits are subject to both the device noises (e.g. thermal noise, shot noise, flicker noise) and the external

16

Introduction

noises (e.g. substrate noise, power/ground bounce, crosstalk). In particular, these external noises, if not appropriately handled, might largely deteriorate the performance and the reliability of integrated circuits [46]. From the practical point of view, in many cases, these external noises are not stochastic but deterministic, unknown yet bounded within certain sets. As such, the set-membership state estimation algorithm is introduced to confine the state estimate in certain desired regions centered at the true value of state of targeted neuron. As one of the most popular state estimation approaches, the set-membership state estimation issue has been well investigated, and a rich body of results have been available in the literature (see e.g. [8, 68, 98, 217]). Nevertheless, the corresponding results for neural networks have been much limited, see e.g. [193], and the study for MNNs of set-membership state estimation has been far from adequate at the moment.

1.3.4

Non-Fragile Algorithm

In the course of estimator execution, due to various reasons (e.g. digital rounding errors, finite computer word length, and inaccuracy of analog to digital conversion), the actual execution parameters of the estimator often slightly differs from the expected ones. It is generally acknowledged that small even tiny drifts/variations of the estimator parameters would result in great damage to the overall system dynamics [65, 154, 196]. Accordingly, over the past several years, the so-called non-fragile estimation problem has become a research focus that aims to construct an effective estimator which is insensitive to the admissible estimator execution errors. For example, in [65], a non-fragile finite-time l2 −l∞ state estimator has been designed for a type of Markov jump neural networks with unreliable communication links. Nevertheless, in contrast to the rich literature regarding traditional RNNs, the available results on the non-fragile state estimation problems for MNNs have been very few, not to mention MNNs with various engineering-oriented complexities.

Outline

The framework of this book is shown as follows: • In Chapter 1, the research background is firstly introduced, where the stability analysis and state estimation problems for MNNs are comprehensively reviewed. It is pointed out that most existing literature regarding the stability analysis problem for MNNs have focused on CMNNs. The corresponding results for discrete-time case have been much fewer, especially in the context of networked systems where certain engineering-oriented complexities such as network-induced phenomena should be taken into consideration. After presenting the motivation, the outline of this book is then listed.

• In Chapter 2, the robust H∞ state estimation problem is studied for a class of discrete-time memristive recurrent neural networks with stochastic time delays. The stochastic time delays under consideration are assumed to switch randomly between two values according to the Bernoulli distribution. By employing the difference inclusion theory and the stochastic analysis technique, a sufficient condition is obtained to ensure the exponential mean-square stability of the output estimation error dynamics and the prescribed H∞ performance requirement is met. Based on the derived sufficient condition, the explicit expression of the desired estimator gain is given. • Chapter 3 investigates the event-triggered state estimation problem for a class of discrete-time stochastic memristive neural networks with timevarying delays and randomly occurring missing measurements. Based on the state-dependent future of memristive neural networks, by utilizing a Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional and stochastic analysis techniques, an event-triggered state estimator is designed and sufficient conditions are given to ensure both the exponential mean-square stability of the output estimation error dynamics and the prescribed H∞ performance requirement. Based on the derived sufficient conditions, the explicit expression of the desired estimator gain is given. • Chapter 4 studies H∞ state estimation problem for the discrete-time stochastic memristive bidirectional associative memory neural networks with mixed time-delays. Different from the description model used in continuous-time setting, a novel yet succinct switching model is employed to quantify and tackle the state-dependent connection weights for the discrete-time stochastic memristive bidirectional associative memory neural networks in discrete-time case. Through available output measurements, we design a state estimator for estimating the neuron states, and propose some sufficient conditions in terms of LMIs such that the estimation error system is exponentially stable in the mean square and the prescribed H∞ performance constraint is satisfied. • In Chapter 5, we deal with the analysis problem for the exponential stability of a class of discrete-time stochastic memristive neural networks with both leakage and probabilistic delays. By utilizing a Bernoulli distributed random sequence, the probabilistic time-varying delays are characterized according to certain probability distributions. Some sufficient conditions are derived under which the addressed discrete-time stochastic memristive neural network is globally exponentially stable by choosing an appropriate Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional. • In Chapter 6, the H∞ state estimation problem is investigated for discretetime memristive neural networks subject to both randomly occurring mixed time-delays and degraded measurements. By introducing a set of new switching functions, the addressed MNN is converted into a system

Introduction involving uncertain interval parameters. Based on this uncertain system, the robust analysis theory and Lyapunov stability theory are utilized, and some conditions are established under which the estimation error system is stochastically stable and the prescribed H∞ performance is satisfied. Subsequently, the desired estimator gain matrices are obtained in terms of the solutions to a certain set of inequality constraints which can be solved effectively via available software packages.

• Chapter 7 solves the set-membership state estimation problem for DMNNs with hybrid time-delays under WTOD protocol. The WTOD protocol is utilized to mitigate the unnecessary network congestion occurred in the channel between the DMNNs and estimator. A resilient set-membership estimator is devised to achieve the estimate of the DMNN susceptible to the unknown-but-bounded noises and WTOD. By means of the recursive matrix inequalities, sufficient conditions are pinned down to ensure the existence of the desired resilient set-membership estimator. Then, an optimization problem is formulated by minimizing the certain ellipsoidal region under the WTOD protocol. • In Chapter 8, the finite-time H∞ state estimation problem is investigated in this chapter for delayed MNNs under the stochastic communication protocol. First, a theoretical framework is established for the addressed MNNs to analyze the finite-time H∞ performance. Within such a framework, sufficient conditions are obtained for the existence of the desired remote estimator. Subsequently, the required estimator gains are obtained by resorting to solve certain recursive linear matrix inequalities. • In Chapter 9, we cope with the dynamic event-triggered resilient state estimation problem for MNNs with time-delays and stochastic disturbances. Combining Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional and stochastic analysis technique, a dynamic event-triggered criterion is presented to guarantee both the exponential mean-square stability of the error dynamics and the prescribed H∞ constraint. Furthermore, a desired estimator insensitive to parameter variations/fluctuations is devised via solving an optimization problem. • Chapter 10 is concerned with the finite-horizon H∞ and l2 − l∞ state estimation problem for MNNs with time-delays and the Round-Robin protocol. The Round-Robin protocol is utilized to mitigate the unnecessary network congestion occurred in the channel between the MNNs and the remote estimator. By using the recursive linear matrix inequalities and the Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional methods, a protocol-based criterion is presented to guarantee not only the H∞ and l2 − l∞ constraints, but also the existence of the desired estimator. • In Chapter 11, the conclusions and some potential topics for future work are given.

2 H∞ State Estimation for Discrete-Time Memristive Recurrent Neural Networks with Stochastic Time-Delays

The past few decades have witnessed constant research interests on various aspects of recurrent neural networks (RNNs) due primarily to their wide applications in many fields such as image processing, pattern recognition and dynamic optimization, etc. In neural networks, owning to the limit of communication capacity, time delays often occur in the signal transmission among neurons. It is well-known that time delays are the main source causing system oscillations and instability. Therefore, the time-delayed neural networks have received increasing research attention, and a great deal of results have been available in the literature. The time-delays under consideration include constant/ time-varying delays, distributed delays and mixed delays. For the RNNs with such types of delays, a lot of results have been obtained on the dynamical behavior analysis of the solution such as global asymptotic stability, global exponential stability, robust stability, and delay-dependent multistability. Recently, a new kind of time-delay, called stochastic time-delays, has received increasing research attention. As is well known, in the theoretical modeling of traditional neural circuits, the system parameters are determined by the electric components such as capacitance and resistance. Recently, memristor has received increasing research attention due to its advantages over resistance such as small size, low energy consumption and storage capacity. As the rapid development of the memristor, the memristive recurrent neural networks have stirred a great deal of research interests, and considerable research efforts have been made on the dynamical behavior analysis issues of memristive recurrent neural networks such as stability and synchronization. It should be pointed out that, in the existing literature, almost all the memristive recurrent neural networks concerned are continuous-time. Actually, the discrete-time neural networks could be more suitable to model digitally transmitted signals in a dynamical way. Besides, the H∞ performance index of state estimator could be to ensure that the energy gain from the noise inputs to the estimation error is less than a certain level. However, to the best of the authors’ knowledge, the state estimation problem for discrete-time memristive recurrent neural networks (DMRNNs) with stochastic time-delays has not been adequately addressed in the literature yet, not to mention that the H∞ performance index is imposed 19

simultaneously. It is, therefore, the purpose of this chapter to shorten such a gap. This chapter deals with the robust H∞ state estimation problem for a class of memristive recurrent neural networks with stochastic time-delays. The stochastic time-delays under consideration are governed by a Bernoulli distributed stochastic sequence. The purpose of the addressed problem is to design the robust state estimator such that the dynamics of the estimation error is exponentially stable in the mean square, and the prescribed H∞ performance constraint is met. By utilizing the difference inclusion theory and choosing a proper Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional, the existence condition of the desired estimator is derived. Based on it, the explicit expression of the estimator gain is given in terms of the solution to an LMI. Finally, a numerical example is employed to demonstrate the effectiveness and applicability of the proposed estimation approach.

Summary

In this chapter, the robust H∞ state estimation problem has been studied for a class of DMRNNs with stochastic time delays. The stochastic time delays under consideration are assumed to switch randomly between two values according to the Bernoulli distribution. In order to estimate the neuron states, an estimator has been constructed. By employing the difference inclusion theory and the stochastic analysis technique, a sufficient condition has been obtained to ensure the exponential mean-square stability of the output estimation error dynamics and the prescribed H∞ performance requirement is met. Based on the derived sufficient condition, the explicit expression of the desired estimator gain has been given. Finally, a numerical example has been provided to show the usefulness and effectiveness of the proposed estimator design method.

3 Event-Triggered H∞ State Estimation for Delayed Stochastic Memristive Neural Networks with Missing Measurements: The Discrete Time Case

It is now well recognized that the time-delays are inherent characteristics in hardware implementation of neural networks which may lead to some complex dynamic behaviors such as oscillation, divergence, and even instability in the network systems. For continuous-time MNNs, so far, various time-delays (including constant delays, time-varying delays, distributed delays and mixed time-delays) have been introduced to model the lags in signal transmissions due to finite switching speeds of amplifiers, and the impacts of the time delays on the dynamical behaviors of continuous-time MNNs have been thoroughly examined in the literature. Nevertheless, the corresponding results for discretetime MNNs have been very few and this constitutes the main motivation of the present research to shorten such a gap. In neural network applications, it is quite common that the neuron states are not fully accessible due probably to the large scale of the networks and the implementation cost in monitoring network output, and this makes it significantly difficult to analyze the dynamical behaviors of the real-time neural networks. Therefore, in such cases, it becomes a prerequisite to estimate the neuron states through available network measurements before exploiting the merits of RNNs in tasks such as classification, approximation and optimization. Again, as far as the discrete-time MNN is concerned, the state estimation subject to missing measurements remains an open problem that deserves further investigation. In the course of implementing large-scale RNNs consisting of a large number of computing units, much resource (e.g. processing, storage, communications) would have to be consumed and the energy saving issue with resource constraints is becoming an emerging topic of research that has started to draw some initial attention. For state estimation problems of RNNs, it is quite desirable to avoid unnecessary signal transmissions (from the measured network outputs to the estimator) and reduce the network burden as long as certain estimation performance requirements (accuracy and convergence) are guaranteed. Recently, the event-triggered mechanism (EVM) has received much research attention because of its distinctive merits in saving resource. 33

34

Event-Triggered H∞ State Estimation

Therefore, a seemingly natural idea is to investigate into the event-triggered state estimation problem for discrete-time MNNs and see how the efficiency of energy utilization can be improved. It should be pointed out that the eventtriggered state estimation problem for RNNs neural networks has not received adequate research attention yet, not to mention the case when the RNN is in the discrete-time setting coupled with time-delays as well as deterministic and stochastic disturbances. More importantly than all of that, compared with the existing results, we can find that the discrete-time stochastic memristive neural networks (DSMNNs) with time-varying delays are more comprehensive and practical than the established ones. In this case, both the stability analysis based on the theory of differential inclusion and the state estimation approach without event-triggered scheme are no longer applicable. Motivated by the above discussions, in this chapter, we endeavor to study the event-triggered H∞ state estimation problem for delayed stochastic MNNs with missing measurements. The problem addressed is to estimate the neuron states through available output measurements subject to probabilistic missing values under an event-triggered mechanism. By utilizing a Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional and stochastic analysis techniques, both the existence conditions and the explicit expression of the desired state estimators are established under which the estimation error dynamics is stable and the prescribed H∞ disturbance rejection attenuation level is guaranteed.

Problem Formulation

Consider the following n-neuron discrete-time stochastic memristive neural networks with time delays: x(k + 1) =D(x(k))x(k) + A(x(k))f (x(k)) + B(x(k))g(x(k − τ (k))) + Lς(k)

(3.1)

+ σ(k, x(k), x(k − τ (k)))w(k)  T where x(k) = x1 (k) x2 (k) · · · xn (k) is the neural state vector; D(x(k)) = diag{d1 (x1 (k)), d2 (x2 (k)), · · · , dn (xn (k))} is the self-feedback matrix with entries |di (xi (k))| < 1; A(x(k)) = aij (xi (k)) n×n and B(x(k)) =  bij (xi (k)) n×n are the connection and the delayed connection weight matrices, respectively; ς(k) ∈ Rn is the external disturbance input vector belonging to l2 ([0, ∞); Rn ), L = diag{l1 , l2 , · · · , ln } is the intensity matrix of the deterministic disturbance; τ (k) represents the time-varying transmission delay which satisfies τm ≤ τ (k) ≤ τM , k = 1, 2, · · · (3.2)

where the positive integers τm and τM are the lower and upper bounds, respectively; w(k) is a scalar Wiener process on (Ω, F, P) with E[w(k)] = 0, E[w2 (k)] = 1, E[w(i)w(j)] = 0 (i 6= j),

(3.3)

and σ : R × Rn × Rn → Rn is called the noise intensity function vector (for the stochastic disturbance) satisfying σ T (k, u, v)σ(k, u, v) ≤ ρ1 uT u + ρ2 v T v,

(3.4) u, v ∈ Rn  where ρ1 and ρ2 are known positive constants; f (x(k)) = f1 (x1 (k)) f2 (x2 (k)) T  · · · fn (xn (k)) and g(x(k − τ (k))) = g1 (x1 (k − τ (k))) g2 (x2 (k − τ (k))) · · · T gn (xn (k − τ (k))) are the nonlinear functions standing for the neuron activation functions. Remark 3.1 In real-world neural networks, some neural networks is often disturbed by environmental noises, and the noise intensity has bound. Therefore, in this chapter, we assume that the DSMNN is subject to the multiplicative stochastic noises, and this noise intensity described by the function vector σ(·). We also assume that this noise intensity σ(·) is related to the time and the system states and has upper bound. For the neuron activation functions, the following assumption is needed. Assumption 3.1 [82] The neuron activation functions f (·) and g(·) satisfy [f (x) − f (y) − Λ1 (x − y)]T × [f (x) − f (y) − Λ2 (x − y)] ≤ 0, x, y ∈ Rn (x 6= y),

where Λ1 , Λ2 , Υ1 and Υ2 are constant matrices. Chua [18] stated that memristor needs to exhibit only two sufficient distinct equilibrium states since digital computer applications requiring only two memory states. On the other hand, along the similar lines in [176], memristor-based neural network (3.1) can be implemented by a large-scale integration circuit. Then according to the feature of the memristor and the current-voltage characteristic, di (xi (k)), aij (xi (k)) and bij (xi (k)) are state-dependent functions with the form ( n dˆi , |xi (·)| > κi , 1 1 i 1 hX 1 ( + )+ = ˇ di (xi (·)) = Ci j=1 Raij Rbij Ri di , |xi (·)| ≤ κi , (3.7) ( signij sˆij , |xi (·)| > κi , sij (xi (·)) = = Ci Rsij sˇij , |xi (·)| ≤ κi

It is not difficult to verify that the matrices Fi (k) (i = 1, 2, 3) satisfy FiT (k)Fi (k) ≤ In2 , where In2 denotes n2 -dimensional identity matrix. Remark 3.2 Usually, the norm-bounded condition of uncertainties is given as an assumption in most of the existing literatures. However, in this chapter, the state-dependent switching to norm-bounded uncertainties is based on the feature of the memristor and the current-voltage characteristics. In this chapter, the network output of (3.1) is of the following form: y(k) =α(k)Cx(k) + N ξ(k),

(3.10)

z(k) =M x(k)

(3.11)

Event-Triggered H∞ State Estimation

where y(k)∈ Rm is the measurement output, z(k)∈ Rr is the output to be estimated and ξ(k) ∈ Rl is the disturbance input belonging to l2 ([0, ∞); Rl ). The stochastic variable α(k) is a Bernoulli-distributed white sequence taking values on 0 or 1 with Prob{α(k) = 1} = α ¯, (3.12) Prob{α(k) = 0} = 1 − α ¯ where α ¯ ∈ [0, 1] is a known constant. For resource-constrained systems, the event-based mechanism has proven to be capable of reducing the information exchange frequency and therefore improving the efficiency in resource utilization. For the purpose of introducing the event-based scheduling, we first denote the triggering instant sequence by 0 ≤ k0 ≤ · · · ≤ kι ≤ · · · and then define an event generator function ϕ(·, ·) : Rm × R → R as follows: ϕ(µ(k), δ) = µT (k)µ(k) − δy T (k)y(k)

(3.13)

where µ(k) = y(k)−y(kι ). Here, y(kι ) is the measurement at latest event time (triggering instant) and δ > 0 is a given positive scalar. The execution (i.e. the measurement output is transmitted to the estimator) is triggered as long as the condition ϕ(µ(k), δ) > 0

(3.14)

is satisfied. Therefore, the next triggering instant is determined iteratively by kι+1 = inf{k ∈ N|k > kι , ϕ(µ(k), δ) > 0}.

(3.15)

Remark 3.3 The event-triggered scheme is a kind of sampling which generates the measurements and transmits the data after the occurrence of a certain external event. Compared to the conventional time-triggered scheme, the event-triggered scheme shows a significant advantage of reducing the amount of sampling instants. In other words, the signals are updated only when necessary and, therefore, the unnecessary computation and transmission could be avoided. However, it is not difficult to see that the introduction triggering condition (3.14) gives reduce to the amount of data, and therefore an adequate trade-off can be achieved between the efficiency in resource utilization and the estimation performance. In order to estimate the neuron state x(k) based on the event-triggered scheme (3.14), we employ the following state estimator ¯ x(k) + Af ¯ (ˆ ¯ x(k − τ (k))) + K(y(kι ) − C x x ˆ(k + 1) = Dˆ x(k)) + Bg(ˆ ˆ(k)) (3.16) for k ∈ [kι , kι+1 ], where x ˆ(k) ∈ Rn is the estimate of the neuron state x(k) and K ∈ Rn×m is the estimator gain to be determined.

Main Results

Before proceeding to the stability analysis for system (3.18), we introduce one lemma that will be useful in deriving our results. Lemma 3.1 [9] Let N = N T , H and E be real matrices with appropriate dimensions, and F T (k)F (k) ≤ I, where I denotes the identity matrix of compatible dimension. Then the inequality N + HF E + (HF E)T < 0 if and only if there exists a positive scalar ε such that N + εHH T + ε−1 E T E < 0 or, equivalently,   N εH E T εH T −εI 0  < 0. E 0 −εI For the stability of system (3.18), we have the following results. Theorem 3.1 Let K be a given constant matrix. Then, under Assumption 3.1, the augmented system (3.18) with ζ(k) = 0 is exponentially mean-square stable if there exist positive definite matrices P = diag{P1 , P2 }, Q and positive scalars λ∗1 , λ∗2 and λj (j = 1, 2, 3) satisfying the following inequalities: P < Λ∗ ⊗ In , ˜ Θ11  ∗  ˜ = ∗ Φ   ∗ ∗

Then, it can be verified that the upper bound and the lower bound of the time-varying delays are τM = 4 and τm = 2, respectively.

time-varying delays and randomly occurring missing measurements. In the model of measurement output, a stochastic variable according to the Bernoulli distribution has been introduced to characterize the randomly occurring missing measurements. Based on the state-dependent future of memristive neural networks, by utilizing a Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional and stochastic analysis techniques, an event-triggered state estimator is designed and sufficient conditions are given to ensure both the exponential mean-square stability of the output estimation error dynamics and the prescribed H∞ performance requirement. Based on the derived sufficient conditions, the explicit expression of the desired estimator gain has been given. Finally, a numerical example has been provided to show the usefulness and effectiveness of the proposed estimator design method. Further research topics include the extension of the main results to more complex systems with more complicated network-induced phenomena, see e.g. [13, 22, 26, 74, 78, 91, 92, 172, 199, 209].

4 H∞ State Estimation for Discrete-Time Stochastic Memristive BAM Neural Networks with Mixed Time-Delays

Bidirectional associative memory (BAM) neural networks, which were initially proposed by Kosko [59, 60], comprise fully interconnected neurons on two layers. Over the past two decades, the dynamics analysis issue of BAM neural networks have been attracting persistent research interests with successful applications to a variety of practical areas such as associative memories, pattern recognition and image processing, and combinatorial optimization problems. For some recent results on the analysis issues of the exponential stability for BAM neural networks, we refer the readers to [66, 186] and the references therein. It is noteworthy that most research effort made so far has been dedicated to continuous-time yet deterministic MNNs under the framework of differential inclusions and Filippov’s solution. Nevertheless, thanks to the rapid development of computer technologies, the popularity of digitalization in today’s world has made it practically important and theoretically significant to investigate the discrete-time MNNs especially in the digital implementation stage. On the other hand, it is often the case that the signal transmission in an actual MNN is subject to noisy perturbations resulting from random fluctuations from the release of neurotransmitters and other probabilistic causes. Unfortunately, when it comes to the discrete-time stochastic memristive BAM (DSMBAM) neural networks, the stability analysis issue has not been explored yet, and this constitutes one of the motivations for the current study. It is widely acknowledged that the discrete-time MNNs pose several inherent challenges for the corresponding dynamics analysis. One of the main challenges stems from the switching (between two states) in each connection weight of an MNN. Another challenge would be the level of complexity brought from the two-layer structure of the BAMs coupling with the switching behaviors of the addressed MNNs. It is, therefore, the main aim of this chapter to overcome the identified challenges and launch a major study on the state estimation problem for DSMBAM neural networks. Motivated by the above discussion, in this chapter, we endeavor to investigate H∞ state estimation problem for DSMBAM neural networks with mixed time-delays. A distinctive characteristic of MNNs is that the network parameters are dependent on the neuron states. As such, we first develop a 55

56

H∞ State Estimation for Discrete-Time Stochastic Memristive BAM

novel switching model to account for such a state-dependent characteristic for the network parameters in the discrete-time setting. Based on the proposed switching functions, we then propose an appropriate Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional in order to derive sufficient conditions guaranteeing the existence of the desired state estimator gains. Explicit expressions for the estimator gains are parameterized by utilizing the semi-definite programming method. Finally, a simulation example is employed to demonstrate the usefulness and effectiveness of the proposed theoretical results.

Here, the white noise w(k) is scalar Wiener process (Brown motion) defined on (Ω, F, P) with E[w(k)] = 0,

Remark 4.1 Notice that the state-dependent characteristic of the memristive connection weights are well reflected in the function sign(i, j) and, as such, the discrete-time MNNs can be generally regarded as a class of state-dependent switching systems. Traditional neural networks, however, do not possess such a switching behavior (see e.g. [73, 85, 88]) and their dynamical behaviors are much easier to analyze as opposed to the MNN cases. In view of the need for digital computations and the state-dependent behavior of memristors, it has been affirmed in [19] that only two equilibrium states for memristor are required. In this chapter, in order to represent the memristive weights in the MNNs (4.1), based on Chua’s analysis [19], a convenient rule is constructed as follows: ( ( d+ d˜+ , |˜ xj (k)| > `˜j , i , |xi (k)| > `i , ˜ di (xi (k)) , − dj (˜ xj (k)) , ˜j− di , |xi (k)| ≤ `i , dj , |˜ xj (k)| ≤ `˜j , ( ( a+ a ˜+ xj (k)| > `˜j , ij , |xi (k)| > `i , ij , |˜ aij (xi (k)) , a ˜ij (˜ xj (k)) , − − aij , |xi (k)| ≤ `i , a ˜ij , |˜ xj (k)| ≤ `˜j , ( ( (4.4) ˜b+ , |˜ b+ xj (k)| > `˜j , ij , |xi (k)| > `i , ij ˜ bij (xi (k)) , − bij (˜ xj (k)) , ˜− bij , |xi (k)| ≤ `i , bij , |˜ xj (k)| ≤ `˜j , ( ( c+ , |xi (k)| > `i , c˜+ xj (k)| > `˜j , ij , |˜ cij (xi (k)) , ij c ˜ (˜ x (k)) , ij j − − cij , |xi (k)| ≤ `i , c˜ij , |˜ xj (k)| ≤ `˜j

Remark 4.2 For the sake of computer-based simulation, experimentation or computation, it is the usual case that we need to discretize the continuous-time networks when implementing continuous-time networks [88]. It is worth mentioning that the available results in dynamics analysis of discrete-time MNNs have been really scattered. On the other hand, due to the state-dependent behavior of the memristive connection weights, it is mathematically difficult to

discuss the dynamic behaviors of the MNNs, and traditional approaches cannot directly be adopted to study the stability and state estimation problems for discrete-time MNNs. By introducing the novel switching functions (4.5), the MNN (4.1) can be transformed into a kind of systems with parameter uncertainties, with which the existing robust analysis method could be ideally applied. For notation simplicity, we denote x(k) = coln {xi (k)}, x ˜(k) = coln {˜ xj (k)}, f˜(k) = coln {fj (˜ xj (k))}, f˜τ (k) = coln {fj (˜ xj (k − τ (k)))}, g(k) = coln {gi (xi (k))}, gι (k) = coln {gi (xi (k − ι(k)))},   ˜ x(k)) = a A(x(k)) = aij (xi (k)) n×n , A(˜ ˜ij (˜ xj (k)) n×n , and  B(x(k)) = bij (xi (k)) n×n ,  C(x(k)) = cij (xi (k)) n×n ,

 ˜ x(k)) = ˜bij (˜ B(˜ xj (k)) n×n ,  ˜ x(k)) = c˜ij (˜ C(˜ xj (k)) n×n ,

D(x(k)) = diagn {di (xi (k))},

˜ x(k)) = diagn {d˜j (˜ D(˜ xj (k))},

σ(k, x(k), x ˜(k − τ (k))) = coln {σi (k, xi (k), x ˜j (k − τ (k)))}, σ ˜ (k, x ˜(k), x(k − ι(k))) = coln {σj (k, x ˜j (k), xi (k − ι(k)))},

L = coln {li }, ˜ L = coln {˜lj }.

With the above notations, for k ∈ N+ , we rewrite the DSMBAM neural network (4.1) as the following more compact form:  x(k + 1) = D(x(k))x(k) + A(x(k))f˜(k) + B(x(k))f˜τ (k) + C(x(k))     ς  X    × f˜(k − ν) + σ(k, x(k), x ˜(k − τ (k)))w(k) + Lξ(k),    ν=1 (4.7) ˜ x(k))˜ ˜ x(k))g(k) + B(˜ ˜ x(k))gι (k) + C(˜ ˜ x(k))  ˜(k + 1) = D(˜ x(k) + A(˜  x   ς˜  X    ˜ ˜ ξ(k)  × g(x(k − ν)) + σ ˜ (k, x ˜(k), x(k − ι(k)))w(k) + L  ν=1

where the state-dependent matrices D(x(k)), A(x(k)), B(x(k)), C(x(k)), ˜ x(k)), A(˜ ˜ x(k)), B(˜ ˜ x(k)) and C(˜ ˜ x(k)) are described by D(˜ D(x(k)) , D0 + ∆D(x(k)), A(x(k)) , A0 + ∆A(x(k)), B(x(k)) , B0 + ∆B(x(k)), C(x(k)) , C0 + ∆C(x(k)),

Remark 4.3 With help from the concise switching functions (4.5), the statedependent connection weights of MNN (4.1) have been recast into a model (4.6) convenient for dynamics analysis. Based on this analysis-tractable model, the MNN (4.1) are reconstructed into system (4.7) that could be regarded as a system with norm-bounded uncertainties. As such, in this chapter, the state estimation problem of the MNN (4.7) can be investigated via robust analysis approach. Different from the maximal absolute value operation-based method (MAVOM) and the characteristic function-based method (CFM), the robust analysis approach to be developed considers the excitatory and inhibitory of connection weights, utilizes the semi-definite program method, and achieves a tradeoff between the conservatism and the complexity. In this chapter, the measurement output and the output to be estimated of the DSMBAM neural network (4.7) are, respectively, given as follows: ( y(k) =Ex(k) + M υ(k), (4.9) ˜x ˜ υ˜(k), y˜(k) =E ˜(k) + M and

Throughout the chapter, we introduce the following assumptions and definition. Assumption 4.1 The neuron activation functions f˜(·) and g(·) are continuous, and satisfy f˜(0) = 0, g(0) = 0, as well as the following conditions: [f˜(x) − f˜(y) − Λ1 (x − y)]T [f˜(x) − f˜(y) − Λ2 (x − y)] ≤ 0, [g(x) − g(y) − Λ3 (x − y)]T [g(x) − g(y) − Λ4 (x − y)] ≤ 0 for all x, y ∈ Rn , and Λ1 , Λ2 , Λ3 and Λ4 are known constant matrices with appropriate dimensions. Assumption 4.2 The noise intensity vector functions σ(·, ·, ·) : R × Rn × Rn → Rn and σ ˜ (·, ·, ·) : R × Rn × Rn → Rn satisfy σ T (k, x, y)σ(k, x, y) ≤ ρ1 xT x + ρ2 y T y,

x, y ∈ Rn ,

σ ˜ T (k, x, y)˜ σ (k, x, y) ≤ ρ3 xT x + ρ4 y T y,

x, y ∈ Rn

for k ∈ N+ , where ρ1 , ρ2 , ρ3 and ρ4 are known positive constants. Remark 4.4 In Assumption 4.2, the inequalities are applied to a) limit how fast the noise intensity vector functions σ(k, x(k), x ˜(k − τ (k))) and σ ˜ (k, x ˜(k), x(k − ι(k))) change and b) ensure their boundedness. Actually, the nonlinear functions satisfying such an assumption are general that includes a large class of nonlinear functions occurring in practical engineering.

Summary

In this chapter, the H∞ state estimation problem has been investigated for discrete-time memristive neural networks subject to both RoM and degraded

measurements. The RoM is allowed to occur in a random manner governed by their known statistical characteristics. The degraded measurements reflect the signal degradation obeying certain prescribed probabilistic distributions according to the Rice fading model. By introducing a set of new switching functions, the addressed MNN (6.1) has been converted into a system involving uncertain interval parameters. Based on this uncertain system, the robust analysis theory and Lyapunov stability theory have been utilized, and some conditions are established under which the estimation error system is stochastically stable and the prescribed H∞ performance is satisfied. Subsequently, the desired estimator gain matrices have been obtained in terms of the solutions to a certain set of inequality constraints which can be solved effectively via available software packages. Finally, a simulation example has been provided to show the effectiveness of the main results. It is worth mentioning that there is still some potential research directions, for example, the extension of the present results to more complicated systems, and the application of the main results to robotic control problems.

7 On State Estimation for Discrete Time-Delayed Memristive Neural Networks under the WTOD Protocol: A Resilient Set-Membership Approach

In practice, MNNs can be realized via very large scale integration circuits (VLSICs) where the connection weights are executed via memristors. Basically speaking, VLSICs are easily susceptible to both device noises (e.g. the flicker, shot and thermal noises) and ambient noises (e.g. the crosstalk, power and/or ground bounce, and substrate noises). Particularly, the ambient noises, if not adequately addressed, could significantly degrade the VLSIC performance and reliability. From a practical point of view, we assume the ambient noises to be deterministic, unknown-but-bounded within certain ellipsoidal regions (CERs). In this case, the set-membership filtering method becomes especially suitable to constrain neuron states in CERs so as to assure satisfactory state estimation performance. Although a vast body of set-membership state estimation work has been presented, relevant results on MNNs have been scattered, let alone the discrete-time setting is also involved. It should be pointed out that, even though some attempts have been initiated on the state estimation issues for MNNs, little attention has been paid to the issue of limited communication under resource constraints between the estimator and the network output. Because of the large size of MNNs and the high-degree complexity of the to-do tasks, the volume of the network output data could become considerably high, which has posed great challenges (e.g. data collisions and communication congestion) onto the transmission networks of limited capacity. To handle the network-induced challenges, an effective measure that has been favorably taken by industry is to leverage the communication scheduling protocols in order to regulate the network traffic. Among various protocols that have been in use so far, the Weighted TryOnce-Discard protocol has proven to be a particularly attractive scheduling strategy in allocating network resources because of its dynamic scheduling behavior based on the significance of different missions. As such, it is of practical significance to explore how the WTODP can be leveraged to coordinate the considerable data transmission between the MNN and the estimator, and this constitutes one of our motivations in the present investigation.

On State Estimation

When realizing filter/controller algorithms in traditional system design, an implicit assumption is that filter/controller gains are exactly implemented. This assumption, unfortunately, goes against the engineering practice as the actual execution of the filter/controller gains might undergo parameter variations induced by many factors including the analogue-digital conversion, round-off errors, and finite resolution of instruments. Such kind of gain variations/drifts, though possibly small, would undoubtedly impair the corresponding controller/filter performance. As such, a growing body of work has been reported on the design of the resilient state estimation algorithms that are of insensitivity to the estimator gain variations. Nevertheless, to our best knowledge, very few results have been acquired so far on the resilient setmembership state estimation problems (SEPs) for DMNNs, not to mention the case where the hybrid time-delays (HTDs) (consisting both discrete and distributed time-delays), unknown-but-bounded noises (UBBNs) and the WTOD protocol (WTODP) are all involved. This constitutes another motivation of the research presented in this chapter.

Similar to [75], the state-dependent functions di (zi (t)), aij (zi (t)), bij (zi (t)) and cij (zi (t)) are ( dˆi , |zi (·)| > `i , di (zi (·)) = ˇ di , |zi (·)| ≤ `i , ( (7.2) κ ˆ ij , |zi (·)| > `i , κij (zi (·)) = κ ˇ ij , |zi (·)| ≤ `i , where κ ∈ {a, b, c}, the switching jumps satisfy `i > 0, |dˆi | < 1, |dˇi | < 1, and κ ˆ ij and κ ˇ ij are known constants. Based on (7.2), we first define following switching functions (SFs): ( ( 1, |zi (·)| > `i , 1, |zi (·)| > `i , d κ ϑii (zi (·)) , ϑij (zi (·)) , (7.3) −1, |zi (·)| ≤ `i , −1, |zi (·)| ≤ `i , and ϑdij (zi (t)) , 0 for i 6= j. Denote di , min{dˆi , dˇi }, d¯i , max{dˆi , dˇi }, κij , min{ˆ κij , κ ˇ ij }, κ ¯ ij , max{ˆ κij , κ ˇ ij }. In addition, we introduce the following matrices: ¯ , diag{d¯1 , d¯2 , · · · , d¯n }, D , diag{d1 , d2 , · · · , dn }, D ¯ ¯ , (¯ ¯ D0 , (D + D)/2, S , (κij )n×n , S κij )n×n , S0 , (S + S)/2 where S ∈ {A, B, C}.

Remark 7.1 In case of computer-based calculations, experiments and simulations, continuous-time networks are often required to be discretized in the implementation process, and this merits the necessity of studying the DMNNs. Note that available results on dynamics analysis problems of DMNNs have been really scattered. Additionally, owing to the state-dependent feature of the memristive CWs, it is mathematically difficult to analyze the dynamics of MNNs, and conventional methods cannot be directly employed to investigate the stability and estimation issues for DMNNs. Thanks to the novel SFs (7.3), we are able to convert the MNN (7.1) into an equivalent one with parametric uncertainties, on which some traditional robust analysis approaches could be ideally applied.

SEP for an MNN under the WTOD protocol.

As shown in Fig. 7.1, the measurements y(t) (as the output of the MNN) are sent to the remote estimator via constrained transmission channels. To prevent the data from collisions and maximize the efficiency of data utilization, the WTODP is applied to schedule the data transmission between the MNN and estimator. Under the WTODP, each entry of y(t) has the priority that is directly proportional to the norm of the error between the current measurement and the last storing measurement. At each time instant, only the entry with the highest priority is allowed to be updated. If there are more than one entry being assigned with the highest priority, we can choose an arbitrary one for updating.

First, for the given matrix sequence {P (t)}t∈N+ , we like to find the sufficient condition that ensures that the RSME exists and, subsequently, (7.10) meets the P (t)-dependent constraint (7.14). Second, we like to minimize the trace of P (t) through appropriately selecting K(t) that satisfies the aforementioned sufficient condition.

Remark 7.2 In the chapter, the set-membership SEP for DMNNs has been effectively coped with under HTDs and the WTODP. One can observe from Theorem 7.1 and Algorithm 7.1 that, in the pursuit of the RSME, all significant factors (including the state-dependent parameters, HTDs, noise information, estimation accuracy, WTODP) are fully reflected in the above analysis, and a comprehensive framework is formulated, under which the desired estimator gains are derived by taking into account factors that sophisticate the concerned model. Remark 7.3 The state estimation problem for artificial neural networks has received a large amount of research attention and a large body of results has been available in the literature. In comparison with the existing literature, the main results of this chapter exhibits the following distinctive features: 1) the set-membership state estimation problem discussed in this chapter is new in the sense that the random gain variation and the WTODP are taken into careful consideration; 2) a novel yet unified estimation scheme is developed to tackle the mathematical complexities stemming from the state-dependent switching behaviors and hybrid time-delays and 3) the design algorithm of the desired filters is recursive and can be realized online.

Summary

The set-membership SEP has been solved in this chapter for DMNNs with HTDS under WTODP. The WTODP has been utilized to mitigate the unnecessary network congestion occurred in the channel between the DMNNs and estimator. To cater for possible execution errors, estimator gains are contaminated by bounded parameter fluctuations. A RSME has then been devised to achieve the estimate of the DMNN susceptible to the UBBNs and WTOD. By means of the RMIs, sufficient conditions have been pinned down to ensure the existence of the desired RSME. Then, an optimization problem has been formulated by minimizing the CER (with respect to estimation errors) under the WTODP. Finally, simulation results illustrate the feasibility of our RSME. Note that the developed event-based resilient strategy might be applied to systems with higher complexities such as genetic regulatory networks and sensor networks.

8 On Finite-Horizon H∞ State Estimation for Discrete-Time Delayed Memristive Neural Networks under Stochastic Communication Protocol

The last decades have witnessed an everlasting research enthusiasm on the study of steady-state behaviors (e.g. asymptotic/exponential stability) of MNNs. It is notable that, in reality, with ensured steady-state behaviors, systems are also required to possess satisfactory transient performances (e.g. finite-time convergence) on a finite horizon. Unfortunately, the achievement of the finite-time stability is usually difficult since the system dynamics is required to converge to the equilibrium in a specified yet limited time. As a matter of fact, in comparison to the absolute convergence, the idea that keeps system states below a given level seems much more realistic on a finite horizon in case of exogenous disturbances. In other words, when considering transient performance, it might be more favorable to constrain the state evolution to a desirable level in accordance with engineering practice. As such, much research attention has recently been drawn towards state estimation problems for MNNs under energy-bounded disturbances with transient behavior requirements. As mentioned in Chapter 7, with the fast development of network technology, nowadays, the state estimation algorithm of MNNs in practical engineering is sometimes required to be realized at a remote location in a networked environment, which gives rise to the remote state estimation issue. In such a case, the actual measurement outputs are often transmitted to a remote estimator through a communication medium (e.g. wireless/distributed networks). Because of the big size of MNNs and the high-degree intricacy of the to-do tasks, the data volume of the network output could become considerably high, thereby posing great challenges (e.g. fading measurement and communication delays) onto the transmission networks of limited capacity. To handle these network-induced challenges, an effective measure is to leverage communication protocols that help regulate the data transmission. Nevertheless, to our best knowledge, very few results have been acquired so far on the finite-time H∞ state estimation problem for delayed MNNs under the regulation of stochastic communication protocol (SCP), not to mention the case where the energybounded disturbances is embraced. 135

136

On Finite-Horizon H∞ State Estimation

In response to above discussion, in this chapter, we aim at developing a finite-time H∞ estimator for delayed MNNs with energy-bounded disturbances under the stochastic communication protocol. It is our objective to construct an H∞ estimator ensuring a prescribed disturbance attenuation level over a finite time-horizon for the delayed MNNs. By virtue of the LyapunovKrasovskii functional in combination with stochastic analysis methods, the delay-dependent criteria are established that guarantee the existence of the desired H∞ estimator. Subsequently, the estimator gains are computed by resorting to solve a bank of convex optimization problems. Finally, the validity of the designed H∞ estimator is demonstrated via a numerical example.

The nonlinear neuron activation functions (NNAFs) f (z(s)) and g(z(s−τ )) have the following forms:  T f (z(s)) = f1 (z1 (s)) f2 (z2 (s)) · · · fn (zn (s)) ,  T g(z(s − τ )) = g1 (z1 (s − τ )) g2 (z2 (s − τ )) · · · gn (zn (s − τ )) where τ ∈ Z+ is a constant delay and the initial condition is φ(s) =  T φ1 (s) φ2 (s) · · · φn (s) for s ∈ [−τ, 0].

Remark 8.1 In most existing literature, the norm-bounded conditions are enforced to facilitate the handling of parameter uncertainties. It is worth mentioning that, in the context of MNN, it is exactly the time-varying uncertain terms ∆D(s), ∆A(s) and ∆B(s) that reflect the influence from the memristors. It should be emphasized that, in the current work, our main focus is on examining the effect of the state-dependent switching (towards norm-bounded disturbances) that relies on features of the memristor and the current-voltage. For the purpose of reducing data collisions and mitigating network burdens, we adopt the SCP to schedule the data transmission. Let ~ys (s) be the actually received data from the ith (i = 1, 2 . . . , m) node. Under the SCP, ~yi (s) updates as ( yi (s), if i = ξ(s) ~yi (s) = (8.5) ~yi (s − 1), otherwise where ξ(s) ∈ {1, 2, . . . , m} denotes the selected sensor for data transmissions at time s. ξ(s) is regulated by a Markov chain with the transition probability matrix P = pij m×m where  pij , Prob ξ(s + 1) = j|ξ(s) = i , i, j = 1, 2, . . . , m.

State estimation with stochastic communication protocols.

Remark 8.2 In general, the communication protocols can be classified into two categories, i.e. static and dynamic protocols. Specifically, the Round-Robin prootcol is an equal scheduling mechanism that belongs to the category of static protocols, whereas the SCP belongs to dynamic protocols in which the Markov chains are utilized to model the regulation procedure. Regardless of protocol categories, at each time step s, only one sensor is permitted to access the network for data transmission. To make full use of the data, the zero-order holder mechanism is implemented to store information that is not transmitted. Based on (8.1) and (8.5), the desired estimator is built as ( ¯ z (s) + Af ¯ (ˆ ¯ z (s − τ )) + K(s)(~y (s) − C(s)ˆ zˆ(s + 1) = Dˆ z (s)) + Bg(ˆ z (s)) zˆ ¯(s) = N (s)ˆ z (s) (8.8) where zˆ(s) and zˆ ¯(s) are the estimates of z(s) and z¯(s), respectively, and K(s) is the parameter to be designed.

burdens in case of large-scale data exchange in the sensor-estimator channel, the SCP (modeled as a Markov chain) has been used to regulate the data transmission process. First, a theoretical framework has been established for the addressed MNNs to analyze the finite-time H∞ performance. Within such a framework, sufficient conditions have been obtained for the existence of the desired remote estimator. Subsequently, the required estimator gains have been obtained by resorting to solve certain RLMIs. Finally, an illustrative example has been provided to verify the validity of our estimation scheme. Moreover, it is also our interest to apply the developed algorithm to MNNs under other protocols, for instance, the RRP [134] and TODP [101] in the near future. Also, the methodology proposed in this chapter can be utilized to deal with more complicated systems with more comprehensive network-induced phenomena [77, 86, 89, 114, 116, 131–133].

9 Resilient H∞ State Estimation for Discrete-Time Stochastic Delayed Memristive Neural Networks: A Dynamic Event-Triggered Mechanism

The circuit implementation of large-scale MNNs is often faced with the consumption of a huge amount of various resources (e.g. processing, storage and communication), and thus the resource saving issue has emerged as a hot topic when addressing the state estimation problems for MNNs. To reduce unnecessary resource consumption, the event-triggered mechanism (ETM) serves as an efficient means when implementing the sensor-to-estimator communication, where the current data is sent only if the prescribed triggering conditions (TCs) are satisfied. It is worth mentioning that most available ETMs are static, namely, the thresholds of the TCs are fixed (rather than adaptive or dynamic). To further conserve resource expenses, the so-called dynamic ETMs have been established where the threshold parameters are dynamically adjusted at each checking time. In comparison with its static counterpart, the dynamic ETM is capable of decreasing the frequency of event releasing, thereby getting around needless data transmissions and achieving conservative solutions. As such, it is of practical significance to explore how the dynamic ETM can be employed to coordinate the considerable data transmission between the MNN and the remote estimator, and this constitutes the main motivation in the present investigation. In this chapter, a resilient H∞ approach is put forward to deal with the state estimation problem for a type of discrete-time delayed memristive neural networks (MNNs) subject to stochastic disturbances and dynamic eventtriggered mechanism. The dynamic ETM is utilized to mitigate unnecessary resource consumption occurring in the sensor-to-estimator communication channel. To guarantee resilience against possible realization errors, the estimator gain is permitted to undergo some norm-bounded parameter drifts. For the delayed MNNs, our aim is to devise an event-based resilient H∞ estimator that not only resists gain variations and stochastic disturbances, but also ensures the exponential mean-square stability of the resulting estimation error system with a guaranteed disturbance attenuation level. By resorting to the stochastic analysis technique, sufficient conditions are acquired for the expected estimator and, subsequently, estimator gains are obtained via 151

figuring out a convex optimization problem. The validity of the H∞ estimator is finally shown via a numerical example.

where Λ1 and Λ2 are constant matrices and f (0) = 0. By using the similar techniques employed in [76], the MNNs given by (9.1) can be rewritten as the following form:  ¯ + ∆D(s))z(s) + (A¯ + ∆A(s))f (z(s)) z(s + 1) =(D     ¯ + ∆B(s))f (z(s − τ (s))) + Lv(s) + (B (9.6)  y(s) =Cz(s) + M (s)v(s)    z¯(s) =N (s)z(s) where ¯ , diag{d1 , d2 , . . . , dn }, A¯ , [aij ]n×n , B ¯ , [bij ]n×n , D ∆D(s) , HF1 (s)E1 , ∆A(s) , HF2 (s)E2 , ∆B(s) , HF3 (s)E3 .

(9.7)

Remark 9.1 Compared to the traditional RNNs, a remarkable feature of the MNNs is the dependence of their memristive CWs on the neuron states (NSs), which makes it mathematically difficult to analyze the dynamics of the MNNs. Thanks to the state-dependent switching (towards norm-bounded uncertainties) that relies on the characteristics of the memristors and the currentvoltage, we are able to convert the MNN (9.1) with state-dependent uncertainties into (9.6) with norm-bounded uncertainties displayed in the terms ∆D(s), ∆A(s) and ∆B(s). In this chapter, in order to reduce resource consumption in the sensorto-estimator channel, a dynamic ETM is taken to decide if the current data should be sent or not (see Fig. 9.1). Denote the triggering instant sequence as 0 ≤ s0 < s1 < · · · < s` < · · · , where s`+1 is determined by n ς(s) s`+1 = min s ∈ [0, N]|s > s` , + %y T (s)y(s) ϑ o

Main Results

Lemma 9.1 [70] Given the dynamic ETM (9.8)–(9.9) with ς0 ≥ 0, if parameters ~ (0 < ~ < 1) and ϑ (ϑ > 0) satisfy ~ϑ ≥ 1, then ς(s) satisfies ς(s) ≥ 0 for all s ∈ [0, N]. Remark 9.3 Lemma 9.1 tells that the dynamic variables ς(s) are nonnegative for s ∈ [0, N]. Unlike the static case, the negative values of %y T (s)y(s) − T (s)(s) are now acceptable. As a result, the triggering frequency is greatly reduced, thereby alleviating the resource consumption in the sensor-to-estimator substantially.

We can come to a conclusion exactly that the dynamic ETM can reduce the resource consumption more effectively than the traditional static one.

Resilient H∞ State Estimation

Summary

In this chapter, we have coped with the dynamic event-triggered resilient SEP for MNNs with time-delays and SDs. Combining Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional and stochastic analysis technique, a dynamic event-triggered criterion has been presented to guarantee both the EMSS of the error dynamics and the prescribed H∞ constraint. Furthermore, a desired estimator insensitive to parameter variations/fluctuations has been devised via solving an optimization problem. In the end, the validity of our estimator has been verified via a quintessential example. Note that the developed event-based resilient strategy might be applied to systems with higher complexities such as genetic regulatory networks and sensor networks.

10 H∞ and l2 − l∞ State Estimation for Delayed Memristive Neural Networks on Finite Horizon: The Round-Robin Protocol

As mentioned in previous chapters, in practice, the actual measurement outputs are sometimes required to be transmitted to a remote estimator via the networked medium (e.g. wireless/distributed networks). With the increasing scale/complexity of the MNNs, data volume of the network output could rise to a considerately high level, thereby posing challenges (e.g. fading measurement and communication delays) onto the transmission networks of limited capacity. To handle the network-induced challenges, it is of momentous significance to leverage communication protocols so as to regulate the data transmission. As a widely used communication strategy in a variety of domains (e.g. transportation dispatching, computer network, communication system and industrial process control), the Round-Robin protocol (RRP) is a periodic scheduling mechanism that manages to orchestrate the data transmission order in a fixed sequence. In this chapter, we aim at solving the H∞ and l2 − l∞ state estimation problem for a class of delayed memristive neural networks under Round-Robin communication protocol over a finite-time horizon. The network under consideration is subject to time-varying delays and energy-bounded disturbances. In order to effectively alleviate data collisions and save energies, an equal allocation scheme (i.e. RRP) is employed in the communication channel between the MNN and the remote state estimator. An update matrix method is developed to settle the time-varying yet periodic time-delays caused by the introduction of the protocol. Through using a combination of Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional and inequality manipulations, delay-dependent criteria are established for the existence of the desired state estimator ensuring that the corresponding augmented estimation error system satisfies the H∞ and l2 − l∞ performance requirement. Then, the explicit characterization of the estimator gain is obtained by solving a convex optimization problem. Finally, a numerical example is carried out to show the effectiveness of the proposed protocol-based estimation scheme.

In order to further show the efficiency of the proposed method, we have considered the same system without the RRP, and the corresponding simulation results are depicted in Figs. 10.6–10.9. Compared with Figs. 10.2–10.5, we can find that the employment of the RRP only has little influence on the estimation performance. Nevertheless, from Fig. 10.10, it is obvious that due to the introduction of the RRP, the communication burden has been reduced effectively. Therefore, we can come to a conclusion exactly that the employment of the RRP is efficient for providing a tradeoff between the consumption of communication resources and estimation performance. 0.4 State z1 (s) Estimate of z1 (s)

Summary

In this chapter, we have coped with the finite-horizon H∞ and l2 − l∞ SEP for MNNs with time-delays and the RRP. The RRP has been utilized to mitigate the unnecessary network congestion occurred in the channel between the MNNs and the remote estimator. By using the RLMIs and the LyapunovKrasovskii functional methods, a protocol-based criterion has been presented to guarantee not only the H∞ and l2 − l∞ constraints, but also the existence of the desired estimator. In the end, the validity of our estimator has been verified via a quintessential example. Note that the developed H∞ and l2 − l∞ strategy might be applied to MNNs prone to other protocols such as the stochastic communication and try-once-discard protocols [203, 218]. Moreover, in future, we will attempt to investigate the H∞ and l2 − l∞ state estimation problem with the help of the annealing algorithm [183, 184].

11 Conclusions and Future Topics

In this book, the stability analysis and state estimation problems have been investigated for discrete-time memristive neural networks. Latest results on stability analysis and estimator design issues have been firstly surveyed for different types of MNNs subject to various engineering-oriented complexities especially network-induced phenomena. Then, in each chapter, for the addressed discrete-time MNNs subject to different constraints (e.g. time-delays, bandwidth limitations, non-Gaussian noises, etc.), sufficient conditions have been derived for the systems to achieve certain pre-specified desired performances including stability, H∞ specification and l2 − l∞ criterion. Subsequently, the synthesis problems have been discussed, and sufficient conditions have been provided for the existence of the desired state estimators that are capable of satisfying all the pre-specified performance requirements by means of certain convex optimization algorithms. This book has established a unified theoretical framework for stability analysis and estimator synthesis for discrete-time memristive neural networks in the context of networked control systems. Various types of engineeringoriented complexities especially those induced by network have been taken into account in both stability analysis and estimator design procedure. However, the obtained results are still quite limited. Some related areas for potential future research work could be mentioned as follows: In practical engineering, there are still some more complicated yet important kinds of network-induced phenomena (e.g. data disorder, sensor saturations, etc.) that have not been studied in a unified framework of neural networks. Therefore, the stability analysis and state estimation problems for MNNs taking into account more engineering-oriented complexities still remain open and challenging. Moreover, it is necessary to consider certain other performance indices than H∞ specification in relevant studies. These performances include, but are not limited to, accuracy, robustness, reliability that can be simultaneously considered in a unified framework. Also, the state estimation problems could be considered for DMNNs subject to many other types of delays such as the neutral delay. Another future research direction is to further study the practical application of the DMNNs in many branches of science and industrial engineering due to the remarkable merits and wide implementation in image processing/recognition, machine learning, reinforcement learning and so forth.
