Abstract
This paper investigates the existence of periodic oscillation for a four-node neural network with distributed delay. Two theorems are provided to determine the conditions for periodic oscillations of the model. The criteria for selecting the parameters in this network are derived. Some simulation examples are presented to illustrate the accuracy of the results.
