Double Features Zeroing Neural Network Model for Solving the Pseudoninverse of a Complex-Valued Time-Varying Matrix.

The solution of a complex-valued matrix pseudoinverse is one of the key steps in various science and engineering fields. Owing to its important roles, researchers had put forward many related algorithms. With the development of research, a time-varying matrix pseudoinverse received more attention than a time-invarying one, as we know that a zeroing neural network (ZNN) is an efficient method to calculate a pseudoinverse of a complex-valued time-varying matrix. Due to the initial ZNN (IZNN) and its extensions lacking a mechanism to deal with both convergence and robustness, that is, most existing research on ZNN models only studied the convergence and robustness, respectively. In order to simultaneously improve the double features (i.e., convergence and robustness) of ZNN in solving a complex-valued time-varying pseudoinverse, this paper puts forward a double features ZNN (DFZNN) model by adopting a specially designed time-varying parameter and a novel nonlinear activation function. Moreover, two nonlinear activation types of complex number are investigated. The global convergence, predefined time convergence, and robustness are proven in theory, and the upper bound of the predefined convergence time is formulated exactly. The results of the numerical simulation verify the theoretical proof, in contrast to the existing complex-valued ZNN models, the DFZNN model has shorter predefined convergence time in a zero noise state, and enhances robustness in different noise states. Both the theoretical and the empirical results show that the DFZNN model has better ability in solving a time-varying complex-valued matrix pseudoinverse. Finally, the proposed DFZNN model is used to track the trajectory of a manipulator, which further verifies the reliability of the model. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
