A SURVEY OF FRACTIONAL-ORDER NEURAL NETWORKS

In this paper; the literature of fractional-order neural networks is categorized and discussed, which includes a general introduction and overview of fractional-order neural networks. Various application areas of fractional-order neural networks have been found or used, and will be surveyed and summarized such as neuroscience, computational science, control and optimization. Recent trends in dynamics of fractional-order neural networks are presented and discussed. The results, especially the stability analysis of fractional-order neural networks, are reviewed and different analysis methods are compared. Furthermore, the challenges and conclusions of fractional-order neural networks are given.
