Synchronization of stochastic perturbed chaotic neural networks with mixed delays

In this paper, we study the synchronization problem of a class of chaotic neural networks with time-varying delays and unbounded distributed delays under stochastic perturbations. By using Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional, drive-response concept, output coupling with delay feedback and linear matrix inequality (LMI) approach, we obtain some sufficient conditions in terms of LMIs ensuring the exponential synchronization of the addressed neural networks. The feedback controllers can be easily obtained by solving the derived LMIs. Moreover, the main results are generalizations of some recent results reported in the literature. A numerical example is also provided to demonstrate the effectiveness and applicability of the obtained results.
