Global exponential periodicity of a class of bidirectional associative memory networks with finite distributed delays

In this paper, we study the periodic oscillatory behavior of a class of bidirectional associative memory (BAM) networks with finite distributed delays. A set of criteria are proposed for determining global exponential periodicity of the proposed BAM networks, which assume neither differentiability nor monotonicity of the activation function of each neuron. In addition, our criteria are easily checkable. (c) 2005 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
