Abstract

In this paper, the projective synchronization of neural networks with mixed time-varying delays and parameter mismatch is discussed. Due to parameter mismatch and projective factor, complete projective synchronization cannot be achieved. Therefore, a new weak projective synchronization scheme is proposed to ensure that coupled neural networks are in a state of synchronization with an error level. Several criteria are derived and the error level is estimated by applying a generalized Halanay inequality and matrix measure. Finally, a numerical example is given to verify the efficiencies of theoretical results.
