Delay-range-dependent stability for fuzzy BAM neural networks with time-varying delays

This Letter considers the problem of delay-range-dependent stability for fuzzy bi-directional associative memory (BAM) neural networks with time-varying interval delays. Based on Lyapunov–Krasovskii theory, the delay-range-dependent stability criteria are derived in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). By constructing new Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional, stability conditions are dependent on the upper and lower bounds of the delays, which is made possible by using some advanced techniques for achieving delay dependence. A numerical example is given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
