Mode-dependent guaranteed cost event-triggered synchronization for singular semi-markov jump neural networks with time delays

This paper addresses the drive-response synchronization problem for singular semi-Markov jump neural networks with time delays. Furthermore, the mode-dependent event-triggered scheme is applied to improve data transmission efficiency. Sufficient criterion is derived by a designed mode-dependent Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional for synchronization error system. Then, synchronization controller gains matrix and event-triggered weight matrix are co-designed simultaneously assisted by linear matrix inequality, such that proposed guaranteed cost performance can be achieved in the mean-square sense. Finally, the usefulness of our synchronization design is verified by numerical simulations.
