Abstract

This paper deals with the pinning synchronization problem for a class of neural networks with time-varying delay and nonsymmetrical coupling. The weighted average of all the node states is selected as the controlled synchronization state. A pinning feedback controller is proposed, and some sufficient conditions are derived to guarantee the global asymptotical synchronization by use of the Lyapunov–Krasovskii function method. Consequently, the adaptive pinning synchronization is also investigated. Finally, a numerical example is given to show the effectiveness of the main results.
