چکیده
We show that there is a Lyapunov functional for the neural field equation, a neural network model which represents highly dense cortical neurons as a spatially continuous field, and that the system necessarily converges to an equilibrium point as far as the length of the field is finite. We also show that the Lyapunov functional is a natural extension of the Lyapunov function of the Hopfield model. The results suggest that the two models have generally common global dynamics characterized by the intimately related Lyapunov functional/function.

Extension of Higher Order Derivatives of Lyapunov Functions in Stability Analysis of Nonlinear Systems
The Lyapunov stability method is the most popular and applicable stability analysis tool of nonlinear dynamic systems. However, there are some bottlenecks in the Lyapunov method, such as need for negative definiteness of the Lyapunov function derivative in the direction of the system’s solutions. In this paper, we develop a new theorem to dispense the need for negative definite-ness of Lyapunov...
متن کاملThe hysteretic Hopfield neural network
A new neuron activation function based on a property found in physical systems--hysteresis--is proposed. We incorporate this neuron activation in a fully connected dynamical system to form the hysteretic Hopfield neural network (HHNN). We then present an analog implementation of this architecture and its associated dynamical equation and energy function.We proceed to prove Lyapunov stability fo...
متن کاملA Bi-level Formulation for Centralized Resource Allocation DEA Models
In this paper, the common centralized DEA models are extended to the bi-level centralized resource allocation (CRA) models based on revenue efficiency. Based on the Karush–Kuhn–Tucker (KKT) conditions, the bi-level CRA model is reduced to a one-level mathematical program subject to complementarity constraints (MPCC). A recurrent neural network is developed for solving this one-level mathematica...
