Abstract
This article visits the intermittent quasisynchronization control of delayed discrete-time neural networks (DNNs). First, an event-dependent intermittent mechanism is originally designed, which is described by the Lyapunov function and three non-negative real regions. The distinctive feature is that the controller starts to work only when the trajectory of the Lyapunov function goes into the presupposed work region. The proposed method fundamentally changes the principle of the existing intermittent control schemes. Under the proposed framework of the intermittent mechanism, the work/rest time of the controller is aperiodic, unpredictable, and initial value dependent. Second, several succinct sufficient conditions in terms of linear matrix inequalities are developed to achieve the quasisynchronization of the considered DNNs. A simple optimization algorithm is established to compute the control gains and the Lyapunov matrices such that synchronization error is stabilized to the smallest convergence region. Finally, two simulation examples are provided to demonstrate the feasibility of the designed intermittent mechanism.
