Cluster synchronization in a network of non-identical dynamic systems is studied in this paper, using two-cluster synchronization for detailed analysis and discussion. The results show that the common intercluster coupling condition is not always needed for the diffusively coupled network. Several sufficient conditions are obtained by using the Schur unitary triangularization theorem, which extends previous results. Some numerical examples are presented for illustration.
In this paper, a novel adaptive control approach is presented to simultaneously achieve synchronization and antisynchronization in partially linear chaotic systems. Through appropriately separating state vectors of such systems, synchronization and anti-synchronization could be simultaneously realized in different subspaces, which may be strictly proven theoretically. Simulation results for a Lorenz chaotic system and a new hyper-chaotic system are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method. Finally, a new secure communication scheme based on such a synchronization phenomenon of the hyper-chaotic system is demonstrated. Numerical results show success in transmitting a periodic signal with high security.
For the first time, an adaptive backstepping neural network control approach is extended to a class of stochastic non- linear output-feedback systems. Different from the existing results, the nonlinear terms are assumed to be completely unknown and only a neural network is employed to compensate for all unknown nonlinear functions so that the controller design is more simplified. Based on stochastic LaSalle theorem, the resulted closed-loop system is proved to be globally asymptotically stable in probability. The simulation results further verify the effectiveness of the control scheme.
In this paper,adaptive dynamic surface control(DSC) is developed for a class of nonlinear systems with unknown discrete and distributed time-varying delays and unknown dead-zone.Fuzzy logic systems are used to approximate the unknown nonlinear functions.Then,by combining the backstepping technique and the appropriate Lyapunov-Krasovskii functionals with the dynamic surface control approach,the adaptive fuzzy tracking controller is designed.Our development is able to eliminate the problem of 'explosion of complexity' inherent in the existing backstepping-based methods.The main advantages of our approach include:1) for the n-th-order nonlinear systems,only one parameter needs to be adjusted online in the controller design procedure,which reduces the computation burden greatly.Moreover,the input of the dead-zone with only one adjusted parameter is much simpler than the ones in the existing results;2) the proposed control scheme does not need to know the time delays and their upper bounds.It is proven that the proposed design method is able to guarantee that all the signals in the closed-loop system are bounded and the tracking error is smaller than a prescribed error bound,Finally,simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

An adaptive neural network output-feedback regulation approach is proposed for a class of multi-input-multi-output nonlinear time-varying delayed systems.Both the designed observer and controller are free from time delays.Different from the existing results,this paper need not the assumption that the upper bounding functions of time-delay terms are known,and only a neural network is employed to compensate for all the upper bounding functions of time-delay terms,so the designed controller procedure is more simplified.In addition,the resulting closed-loop system is proved to be semi-globally ultimately uniformly bounded,and the output regulation error converges to a small residual set around the origin.Two simulation examples are provided to verify the effectiveness of control scheme.
