Existence and attractivity of almost periodic solution for recurrent neural networks with unbounded delays and variable coefficients

This paper presents several sufficient conditions for the existence and attractivity of almost periodic solution for anew class of recurrent neural networks with unbounded delays and variable coefficients. Different from the normal approach, that's to say, without resorting to any Lyapunov function, these results are obtained by utilizing generalized Halanay inequality technique and combining the theory of exponential dichotomy with fixed point method. Some existing results are found to be special case of this paper. In addition, the exponential stability of the almost periodic solution, which is not studied in the earlier references, is also considered for the system. An example is given to illustrate the feasibility of our results.
