the stability of learning rate in neural network identifiers and controllers is one of the challenging issues which attracts great interest from researchers of neural networks. this paper suggests adaptive gradient descent algorithm with stable learning laws for modified dynamic neural network (mdnn) and studies the stability of this algorithm. also, stable learning algorithm for parameters of ...

We propose balancing related numerically reliable methods to compute minimal realizations of linear periodic systems with time-varying dimensions. The first method belongs to the family of square-root methods with guaranteed enhanced computational accuracy and can be used to compute balanced minimal order realizations. An alternative balancing-free square-root method has the advantage of a pote...

In this article, different methods of computing Lyapunov exponents for continuous-time dynamical systems are briefly reviewed. The relative merits and demerits of these methods are pointed out. 1. Preliminaries The problem of detecting and quantifying chaos in a wide variety of systems is an ongoing and important activity. In this context, computing the spectrum of Lyapunov exponents has proven...

One of the inherent weaknesses of the EEG signal processing is noises and artifacts. To overcome it, some methods for prediction of epilepsy recently reported in the literature are based on the evaluation of chaotic behavior of intracranial electroencephalographic (EEG) recordings. These methods reduced noises, but they were hazardous to patients. In this study, we propose using Lyapunov spectr...

This paper presents a fuzzy controller for high-speeds four-wheel-steering vehicles based on the state feedback and the sliding-mode control methods. In the proposed fuzzy controller, the consequent part of the fuzzy IF-THEN rules consists of either a sliding-mode controller or a state-feedback controller. Also, it will be proved that, if every fuzzy rule is stable in the sense of Lyapunov for ...

It is widely known that the solutions of Lyapunov equations can be used to compute the H2 norm of linear timeinvariant (LTI) dynamical systems. In this paper, we show how this theory extends to dynamical systems with delays. The first result is that the H2 norm can be computed from the solution of a generalization of the Lyapunov equation, which is known as the delay Lyapunov equation. From the...

different discrete models of population dynamics of certain insects have been investigated under various feasible conditions within the framework of nonlinear dynamics. evolutionary phenomena are discussed through bifurcation analysis leading to chaos. some tools of nonlinear dynamics, such as lyapunov characteristic exponents (lce), lyapunov numbers, correlation dimension, etc. are calculated ...
