From different ZFs to different ZNN models accelerated via Li activation functions to finite-time convergence for time-varying matrix pseudoinversion ?
In this paper, a special class of recurrent neural network, termed Zhang neural network (ZNN), is investigated for the online solution of the time-varying matrix pseudoinverse. Meanwhile, a novel activation function, named Li activation function, is employed. Then, based on two basic Zhang functions (ZFs) and the intrinsically nonlinear method of ZNN design, two finite-time convergent ZNN models (termed ZNN-1 model and ZNN-2 model) are first proposed and investigated for time-varying matrix pseudoinversion. Such two ZNN models can be accelerated to finite-time convergence to the time-varying theoretical pseudoinverse. The upper bound of the convergence time is also derived analytically via Lyapunov theory. By exploiting the other three simplified ZFs and the extended nonlinearization method, three simplified finite-time convergent ZNN models (termed ZNN-3 model, ZNN-4 model and ZNN-5 model) are sequentially proposed. In addition, the link between the ZNN models and the GetzMarsden (GM) dynamic system is discovered and presented in this paper. Computer-simulation results further substantiate the theoretical analysis and demonstrate the effectiveness of ZNN models based on different ZFs for the time-varying matrix pseudoinverse.
