Robustness analysis of neutral fuzzy cellular neural networks with stochastic disturbances and time delays

This paper discusses the robustness of neutral fuzzy cellular neural networks with stochastic disturbances and time delays. This work questions whether fuzzy cellular neural networks, which initially remains stable, can be stabilised again when the system is subjected to three simultasneous perturbations i.e., neutral items, random disturbances, and time delays. First, by using inequality techniques such as Gronwall's Lemma, the Itŏ formula, and the property of integrals, the transcendental equations that contain the contraction coefficient of the neutral terms, the intensity of the random disturbances, and the time delays are derived. Then, the upper bounds of the neutral terms, random disturbances, and time delays are estimated by solving the transcendental equations for multifactor perturbations, which ensures that the disturbed fuzzy cellular neural network can be stabilised again. Finally, the validity of the results is verified by numerical examples.
