Recovering node parameters and topologies of uncertain non‐linearly coupled complex networks.

Node dynamics and network topologies play vital roles in determining dynamical behaviours and features of complex networks. Thus it is of great theoretical significance and practical value to identify the node parameters and topologies of uncertain complex networks. This study presents adaptive anticipatory synchronisation‐based approaches to identify the unknown node parameters and topologies of uncertain non‐linearly coupled complex networks perturbed by stochastic noise. Moreover, during the identification process, the authors proposed scheme guarantees anticipatory synchronisation between the uncertain drive and constructed response network simultaneously. In particular, their methods can be used to recover node parameters and topologies of complex networks in several special cases, such as cases without node delay or coupling delay. Furthermore, numerical simulations are provided to verify the applicability and effectiveness of their methods for recovering node parameters and topologies of uncertain non‐linearly coupled complex networks.
