Hybrid Impulsive Feedback Control for Drive-Response Synchronization of Fractional-Order Multi-Link Memristive Neural Networks with Multi-Delays

This article addresses the issue of drive-response synchronization in fractional-order multi-link memristive neural networks (FMMNN) with multiple delays, under hybrid impulsive feedback control. To address the impact of multiple delays on system synchronization, an extended fractional-order delayed comparison principle incorporating impulses is established. By leveraging Laplace transform, Mittag-Leffler functions, the generalized comparison principle, and hybrid impulsive feedback control schemes, several new sufficient conditions are derived to ensure synchronization in the addressed FMMNN. Unlike existing studies on fractional-order single-link memristor-based systems, our response network is a multi-link model that considers impulsive effects. Notably, the impulsive gains a(i )are not limited to a small interval, thus expanding the application range of our approach (a(i) ? (-2, 0) ? (-8, -2) ? (0, +8)). This feature allows one to choose impulsive gains and corresponding impulsive intervals that are appropriate for the system environment and control requirements. The theoretical results obtained in this study contribute to expanding the relevant theoretical achievements of fractional-order neural networks incorporating memristive characteristics.
