\(2^N\) almost periodic attractors for Cohen-Grossberg-type BAM neural networks with variable coefficients and distributed delays (Q710940)

This paper considers a class of \(2^N\) almost periodic attractors for Cohen-Grossberg-type bidirectional associative memory (BAM) neural networks with variable coefficients and distributed delays. The existence of \(2^N\) almost periodic solutions lying in compact convex subsets is derived by imposing some new assumptions on activation functions and system parameters. Moreover, some new criteria for the networks to converge toward these \(2^N\) almost periodic solutions and exponential attracting domains are also obtained. Some examples and their simulations are finally presented to illustrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the results. The results are helpful for designing NNs with exponentially stable periodic solutions.
