Abstract

This paper is concerned with the problem of the stochastic stability analysis for Markovian jumping neural networks with time-varying delays and stochastic perturbation. Some criteria for the stability and robust stability of such neural networks are derived, by means of constructing suitable Lyapunov–Krasovskii functionals and a unified linear matrix inequality (LMI) approach. Note that the LMIs can be easily solved by using the Matlab LMI toolbox and no tuning of parameters is required. Finally, numerical examples are used to illustrate the effectiveness and advantage of the proposed techniques.
