Abstract

Based on the framework of Filippov solutions, this paper considers synchronization of inertial neural networks (INNs) with discontinuous activation functions and proportional delay. By designing several non-chattering controllers, both finite-time and fixed-time synchronization are studied. The designed controllers are simple to be implemented and can overcome the effects of both nonidentical uncertainties of Filippov solutions and the proportional delay without inducing any chattering. By designing new Lyapunov functionals and utilizing 1-norm methods, several sufficient conditions are obtained to ensure that the INNs achieve drive-response synchronization in finite time and fixed time, respectively. Moreover, the settling time is estimated for the two types of synchronization. Simulations are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of theoretical analysis.
