Adaptive Global Synchronization for a Class of Quaternion-Valued Cohen-Grossberg Neural Networks with Known or Unknown Parameters

In this paper, the adaptive synchronization problem of quaternion-valued Cohen-Grossberg neural networks (QVCGNNs), with and without known parameters, is investigated. On the basis of constructing an appropriate Lyapunov function, and utilizing parameter identification theory and decomposition methods, two effective adaptive feedback schemes are proposed, to guarantee the realization of global synchronization of CGQVNNs. The control gain of the above schemes can be obtained using the Matlab LMI toolbox. The theoretical results presented in this work enrich the literature exploring the adaptive synchronization problem of quaternion-valued neural networks (QVNNs). Finally, the reliability of the theoretical schemes derived in this work is shown in two interesting numerical examples.
