Abstract

This paper presents two algebraic criteria for the input-to-state stability of recurrent neural networks with time-varying delays. The criteria which also ensure global exponential stability when the input u(t) is equal to 0 and is easy to be verified only with the connection weights of the recurrent neural networks. Two numerical examples are given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed criteria.
