Hopfield neural networks [1-4]w ere mainly modeled by assuming a time-invariant structure and used to study their qualitative dynamical properties [5; 6]. During the learning process a neural nework is subjected to (arbitrary or designed) structural variation [4; 7]. Dynamics of neural networks under designed structural variations was investigated in [8; a nd of those under unpredictable structural and/or parameter variations in [10].H owever; modeling of Hopfield neural networks under pure structural variations has not been carded out; which is done in what follows. Stability analysis of neural networks initiated by Hopfield [1 ] for a special class of neural networks was developed for any type of Hopfield neural network and extended to the qualitative analysis of their motions in forced regimes in [5; 11 ]. It was emphasized in [1; 9] that in neurobiology the structure of the circuit changes every time learning occurs and that a memory stored in an artificial neural network is achieved by an appropriate choice of conductances. Stability analysis of neural networks under structural variations was considered in [5; 7; and under both parameter and structural variations in [8]. In what follows; new results are obtained for exponential stability of x -----0 of Hopfield neural networks and for estimates of the domain of the exponential stability; which is also defined herein; under arbitrary t Supported in part by NSF Grant ECS 91-07728. * Corresponding author;

摘要
A qualitative analysis is developed for continuous-time neural networks subjected to random pure structural variations. Simple algebraic conditions are established for both structural exponential stability of x = 0 of the neural network and for estimates of its domain of attraction. Bounds on motions of the neural network in a forced regime are provided. They do not require any information about its actual structure, which can be completely unknown and may vary unpredictably.
