Abstract
In this paper, a finite-time convergent Zhang neural network (ZNN) is proposed and studied for matrix square root finding. Compared to the original ZNN (OZNN) model, the finite-time convergent ZNN (FTCZNN) model fully utilizes a nonlinearly activated sign-bi-power function, and thus possesses faster convergence ability. In addition, the upper bound of convergence time for the FTCZNN model is theoretically derived and estimated by solving differential inequalities. Simulative comparisons are further conducted between the OZNN model and the FTCZNN model under the same conditions. The results validate the effectiveness and superiority of the FTCZNN model for matrix square root finding.
