In this paper, by replacing the exponential memory kernel function of a tabu learning single-neuron model with the power-law memory kernel function, a novel Caputo's fractional-order tabu learning single-neuron model and a network of two interacting fractional-order tabu learning neurons are constructed firstly. Different from the integer-order tabu learning model, the order of the fractional-order derivative is used to measure the neuron's memory decay rate and then the stabilities of the models are evaluated by the eigenvalues of the Jacobian matrix at the equilibrium point of the fractional-order models. By choosing the memory decay rate (or the order of the fractional-order derivative) as the bifurcation parameter, it is proved that Hopf bifurcation occurs in the fractional-order tabu learning single-neuron model where the value of bifurcation point in the fractional-order model is smaller than the integer-order model's. By numerical simulations, it is shown that the fractional-order network with a lower memory decay rate is capable of producing tangent bifurcation as the learning rate increases from 0 to 0.4. When the learning rate is fixed and the memory decay increases, the fractional-order network enters into frequency synchronization firstly and then enters into amplitude synchronization. During the synchronization process, the oscillation frequency of the fractional-order tabu learning two-neuron network increases with an increase in the memory decay rate. This implies that the higher the memory decay rate of neurons, the higher the learning frequency will be. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract: In this paper, we consider a discrete-time tabu learning single neuron model. After investigating the stability of the given system, we demonstrate that Pichfork bifurcation, Flip bifurcation and Neimark–Sacker bifurcation will occur when the bifurcation parameter exceed a critical value, respectively. A formula is given for determining the direction and stability of Neimark–Sacker bifurcation by applying the normal form theory and the center manifold theorem. Some numerical simulations for justifying the theoretical results are also provided. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

In this paper, we consider the nonlinear dynamical behaviors of some tabu learning neuron models. We first consider a tabu learning single neuron model. By choosing the memory decay rate as a bifurcation parameter, we prove that Hopf bifurcation occurs in the neuron. The stability of the bifurcating periodic solutions and the direction of the Hopf bifurcation are determined by applying the normal form theory. We give a numerical example to verify the theoretical analysis. Then, we demonstrate the chaotic behavior in such a neuron with sinusoidal external input, via computer simulations. Finally, we study the chaotic behaviors in tabu learning two-neuron models, with linear and quadratic proximity functions respectively. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this letter, considering the multiuser detection from a combinatorial optimization viewpoint, we propose a multiuser detector based on the tabu learning method, which applies the concept of tabu search to neural networks for solving optimization problems. The performance of the proposed detector is demonstrated through computer simulations. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
