Exponential stability for stochastic BAM networks with discrete and distributed delays

In this paper, we investigate exponential stability for stochastic BAM networks with mixed delays. The mixed delays include discrete and distributed time-delays. The purpose of this paper is to establish some criteria to ensure the delayed stochastic BAM neural networks are exponential stable in the mean square. A sufficient condition is established by consructing suitable Lyapunov functionals. The condition is expressed in terms of the feasibility to a couple LMIs. Therefore, the exponential stability of the stochastic BAM networks with discrete and distributed delays can be easily checked by using the numerically efficient Matlab LMI toobox. A simple example is given to demonstrate the usefulness of the derived LMI-based stability conditions.
