In this paper, we study the existence and global exponential stability of almost periodic solution for memristor-based neural networks with leakage, time-varying and distributed delays. Using a new Lyapunov function method, we prove that this delayed neural network has a unique almost periodic solution, which is globally exponentially stable. Moreover, the obtained conclusion on the almost periodic solution is applied to prove the existence and stability of periodic solution (or equilibrium point) for this delayed neural network with periodic coefficients (or constant coefficients).

Complexity of analysis of landslide hazard is due to uncertainty. In this study, a novel approach multi-gene genetic programming based on separable functional network (MGGPSFN) is presented for predicting landslide displacement. Moreover, Pearson's cross-correlation coefficients and mutual information are adopted to look for the potential input variables for a forecast model in the paper. The performance of new model is verified through one case study in Baishuihe landslide in the Three Gorges Reservoir in China. In addition, we compared it with two methods, back-propagation neural network and radial basis function, and MGGPSFN got the best results in the same measurements.

Inspired by the fact that in most existing swarm models of multi-agent systems the velocity of an agent can be infinite, which is not in accordance with the real applications, we propose a novel swarm model of multi-agent systems where the velocity of an agent is finite. The Lyapunov function method and LaSalle's invariance principle are employed to show that by using the proposed model all of the agents eventually enter into a bounded region around the swarm center and finally tend to a stationary state. Numerical simulations are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results.

This paper investigates the problem of global exponential anti-synchronization of a class of switched neural networks with time-varying delays and lag signals. Considering the packed circuits, the controller is dependent on the output of the system as the inner states are very hard to measure. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate the controller based on the output of the neuron cell. Through theoretical analysis, it is obvious that the obtained ones improve and generalize the results derived in the previous literature. To illustrate the effectiveness, a simulation example with applications in image encryptions is also presented in the paper.

This paper addresses the robust semi-global coordinated tracking problem of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) multi-agent systems with input saturation and communication noise. A distributed observer-based coordinated tracking protocol is constructed by combining a novel parameterized low-and-high feedback technique with the high-gain observers design approach. It is shown that, under the assumptions that each agent is asymptotically null-controllable with bounded controls and the network is connected, semi-global consensus tracking or semi-global swarm tracking can be attained for left-invertible and minimal-phase systems.

This paper presents a memory crossbar based on two serial memristors with threshold characteristic to eliminate the effect of sneak paths, which is a key issue in crossbar memory system leading to great degradation in their performance and power efficiency. At first, we analyze the threshold characteristic of memristor and propose a memristor model with threshold. Based on this model, the paper presents the design and simulation of a non-volatile memory system utilizing two serial memristors with different polarities as a memory cell. This scheme solves the sneak-path problem by taking advantage of the threshold characteristic and the performance with having always high resistance state in all the memory cells, which is validated by simulation results. The scheme also possesses the superior properties of remarkable compatibility and high density.

Under the assumption that each agent is asymptotically null controllable with bounded controls and there exists at least one leader that has directed path to each followers, both state feedback and output feedback control protocols are designed by utilizing the algebraic Riccati equation . For any a priori given bounded set , semi-global state feedback and output feedback containment control of multi-agent systems with intermittent communication can be attained.
