Abstract
This paper considers the finite-time and fixed-time bipartite synchronization (FFTBS) of coupled delayed neural networks (CDNNs) under signed graphs. For the structurally balanced or unbalanced network topology, both the goals of FFTBS of CDNNs are achieved simultaneously by a unified discontinuous controller. Some sufficient criterion are obtained to ensure the FFTBS under the new designed protocols, and the corresponding settling times are estimated as well. Finally, two simulations are established to verify the validity and effectiveness of the designs.
