Abstract :
Estimates of exponential convergence rate and exponential stability are studied for a class of neural networks which includes Hopfield neural networks and cellular neural networks. Both local and global exponential convergence are discussed. Theorems for estimation of the exponential convergence rate are established and the bounds on the rate of convergence are given. The domains of attraction in the case of local exponential convergence are obtained. Simple conditions are presented for checking exponential stability of the neural networks
