Direct quaternion method-based stability criteria for quaternion-valued Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy BAM delayed neural networks using quaternion-valued Wirtinger-based integral inequality

This paper investigates the global asymptotic stability problem for a class of quaternion-valued Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy BAM neural networks with time-varying delays. By applying Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy models, we first consider a general form of quaternion-valued Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy BAM neural networks with time-varying delays. Then, we apply the Cauchy-Schwarz algorithm and homeomorphism principle to obtain sufficient conditions for the existence and uniqueness of the equilibrium point. By utilizing suitable Lyapunov-Krasovskii functionals and newly developed quaternion-valued Wirtinger-based integral inequality, some sufficient criteria are obtained to guarantee the global asymptotic stability of the considered networks. Further, the results of this paper are presented in the form of quaternion-valued linear matrix inequalities, which can be solved using the MATLAB YALMIP toolbox. Two numerical examples are presented with their simulations to demonstrate the validity of the theoretical analysis.
