In such applications, the qualitative ana- lysis of the dynamical behaviors is a necessary step for the practical design of neural networks [2]. In hardware implementation, time delays occur due to finite switching speed of the amplifiers and communication time. The existence of time delay may lead to some complex dynamic behaviors such as oscillation, divergence, chao s, instability, or other poor performance of the neural networks [3]. Therefore, the study of dynamical beha- viors with consideration of time delays becomes extremely important to m anufacture high-quality neural networks [4]. Many results on dynamical behaviors have been reported for delayed neural networks, for example, see [1-10] and references therein. On the other hand, it was found that some delayed neural networks can exhibit chaotic behavior [11-13]. These kinds of chaotic neural networks have been utilized to solve optimization problems [14]. Since the drive-response concept for considering synchronization of coupled chaotic systems was proposed in 1990 [15], the synchroni- zation of chaotic systems has attracted considerable attention due to its benefits of Song and Cao Advances in Difference Equations 2011, 2011:16 http://www.advancesindifferenceequations.com/content/2011/1/16 © 2011 Song and Cao; licensee Spr inger.

Therefore, some chaotic neural networks with delays could be treated as models when we study the synchronization. Recently, some works dealing w ith synchronization phenomena in de layed neural networks have also appeared, for example, see [17-29] and references therein. In [17-20], the coupled connected neural networks with delays were c onsidered, several sufficient conditions for synchronization of such neural networks were obtained by Lyapunov stability theory and the li near matrix inequality (LMI) technique. In [21-29], the authors investigated the synchronization problem of some chaotic neural networks with delays. Using the drive-response concept, the control laws were derived to achieve the synchronization of two identical chaotic neural networks. It is worth pointing out that, the reported works in [17-29] focused on synchronizing of two identical chao tic neural networks with different initial conditi ons. In practice, the chaotic systems are inevitably subject to some environmental changes, which may render their parameters to be variant. Furthermore, from the point of view of engineer- ing, it is very difficult to keep the two chaotic systems to be identical all the time. Therefore, it is important to study the synchronization problem of nonidentical chaotic neural networks. Obviously, when the considered drive a nd response neural networks are distinct and with time delay, it becomes more complex and challenging. On the study for synchronization problem of two nonidentical chaotic systems, one usually adopts adaptive control approach to establish synchronization conditions, for example, see [30-32], and refere nces therein. Recently, the integral sliding mode control approach is also employed to investigate synchronization of nonidentical chaotic delayed neura l networks [33-38]. In [33], an integral sliding mode control appr oach is proposed to address synchronization for two nonidentical chaotic neural networks with constant delay. Based on the drive-response concept and Lyapunov stability t heory, both delay-independent and delay-dependent conditions in LMIs are derived under which the resulting error system is globally asymptotically stable in the specified switc hing surface, and a sliding mode controller is synthesized to guarantee the reach- ability of the specified sliding surface. In [34], the authors investigated synchronization for two chaotic neural networks with discrete and distributed constant delays. By using Lyapunov functional method and LMI technique, a delay-dependent condition was obtained to ensure that the drive system synchronizes with the identical response sys- tem. When the parameters and activation functions of two chaotic neural networks mismatched, the synchronization criterion is also derived by sliding mode control approach. In [35], the projective synchronization for two nonidentical chaotic neural networks with constant delay was investigated, a delay-dependent sufficient condition was derived by sliding mode control approach, LMI technique and Lyapunov stability theory. However, to the best of the authors’ knowledge, there are no results on the problem of synchronization for chaotic neural networks with leakag e delay. As pointed out in [39], neural networks with leakage delay is a class of important neural networks; time delay in the leakage term also has great impact on the dynamics of neural net- works because time delay in the stabilizing negative feedback term has a tendency to destabilize a system [39-43]. Therefore, it is necessary to further investigate the syn- chronization problem for two chaotic neural networks with leakage delay. Song and Cao Advances in Difference Equations 2011, 2011:16 http://www.advancesindifferenceequations.com/content/2011/1/16 Page 2 of 17 Motivated by the above discussions, the objective of this paper is to present a sys- tematic design procedure for synchronization of two nonidentical chaotic neural net- works with discrete and distributed time-varying delays as well as leakage delay. By constructing a proper sliding surface and Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional, and employ- ing a combination of the free-weighting matrix method, Newton-Leibniz formulation and inequality technique, a sliding mode controller is designed to achieve the asympto- tical synchroni zation of the addressed nonidentical neural networks. Moreo ver, a sli d- ing mode control law is a lso synthesized to guarantee the reachability of the specified sliding surface. The provided conditions are expressed in terms of LMI, and are depen- dent on the discrete and distributed time delays as well as leakage delay. Differing from the results in [33-35], the main contributions of this study are to investi gate the effect of the leakage delay on the synchronization of two nonidentical chaotic neural net- works with discrete and distributed time-varying delays as well as leakage delay and to propose an integral sliding mode control approach to solving it. Problem formulation and preliminaries In this paper, we consider the following neural network model ˙ y(t )=− D 1 y(t − δ)+A 1 f (y(t)) + B 1 f (y(t − τ(t )) ) + C 1  t t−σ ( t ) f (y(s))ds + I 1 (t ), t ≥ 0, (1) where y(t)=(y 1 (t), y 2 (t), , y n (t)) T Î R n is the state vector of the network at time t, n corresponds to the number of neurons; D 1 Î R n × n is a positive diagonal matrix, A 1 , B 1 , C 1 Î R n × n are, respectively, the connection weight matrix, the discretely delayed connection weight matrix and distributively delayed connection weight matrix; f(y(t)) = (f 1 (y 1 (t)), f 2 (y 2 (t)), , f n (y n (t))) T Î R n denotes the neuron activation at time t; I 1 (t) Î R n is an external input vector; δ ≥ 0, τ(t) ≥ 0ands(t) ≥ 0 denote the leakage delay, the discrete time-varying delay and the distributed time-varying dela y, respectively, and sati sfy 0 ≤ τ(t) ≤ τ,0≤ s(t) ≤ s,whereδ, τ and s are constants. It is assumed that the measured output of system (1) is dependent on the state and the delayed states with the following form: w ( t ) = K 1 y ( t ) + K 2 y ( t − δ ) + K 3 y ( t − τ ( t )) + K 4 y ( t − σ ( t )), (2) where w(t) Î R m , K i Î R m × n (i = 1, 2, 3, 4) are known constant matrices. The initial condition associated with model (1) is given by y ( s ) = φ ( s ) , s ∈ [−ρ,0] , where j(s) is bounded and continuously differential on [-r, 0], r = max {δ, τ, s}. We consider the system (1) as the drive system. The response system is as follows: ˙ z (t )=− D 2 z(t − δ)+A 2 g(z(t)) + B 2 g(z(t − τ(t)) ) + C 2  t t−σ ( t ) g(z(s))ds + I 2 (t )+u(t), t ≥ 0, (3) with initial condition z(s)=(s), s Î [-r, 0], where (s) is bounded and continuously differential on [-r,0],u(t) is the appropriate control input that will be designed in order to obtain a certain control objective. Song and Cao Advances in Difference Equations 2011, 2011:16 http://www.advancesindifferenceequations.com/content/2011/1/16 Page 3 of 17 Let x(t)=y(t)-z(t) be the error state, then the error system can be obtained from (1) and (3) as follows: ˙ x(t )=− D 1 x(t − δ)+A 1 h(x(t)) + B 1 h(x(t − τ (t))) + C 1  t t−σ (t) h(x(s))d s +(D 2 − D 1 )z(t − δ) − A 2 g(z(t)) − B 2 g(z(t − τ(t))) − C 2  t t−σ (t) g(z(s))ds + A 1 f (z(t)) + B 1 f (z(t − τ (t))) + C 1  t t−σ ( t ) f (z(s))ds − u(t)+I 1 (t ) − I 2 (t ), (4) where h(x(t)) = f(y(t)-f(z(t)), and x(s)=j(s)-(s), s Î [-r, 0]. Definition 1 Thedrivesystem(1)andtheresponsesystem(3)issaidtobeglobally asymptotically synchronized, if system (4) is globally asymptotically stable. The aim of the paper is to design a controller u(t) to let the response system (3) syn- chronize with the drive system (1). Since dynamic behavior of error system (4) relies on both error state x(t) and chaotic state z(t) of response system (3), complete synchronization between two nonidentical chaotic neural networks ( 1) and (3) cannot b e achieved only by utilizing output feed- back control. To overcome the difficulty, an integral sliding mode c ontrol approach will be proposed to investigate the synchronization problem of two nonidentical chao- tic neural networks (1) and (3). In other words, an integral slid ing mode controller is designed such that the sliding motion is globally asymptotically stable, and the state trajectory of the error system (4) is globally driven onto the specified sliding surface and maintained there for all subsequent time. To utilize the information of the measured output w(t), a suitable sliding surface is constructed as S(t )=x(t)+  t 0  D 1 x(ξ − δ) − A 1 h(x(ξ)) − B 1 h(x(ξ − τ (ξ))) − C 1  ξ ξ−σ (ξ ) h(x(s))ds + K  w(ξ) − K 1 z(ξ) − K 2 z(ξ − δ ) − K 3 z(ξ − τ (ξ)) − K 4 z(ξ − σ (ξ ))  dξ, (5) where K Î R n × m is a gain matrix to be determined. It follows from (2), (4) and (5) that S(t )=x(0) +  t 0  (D 2 − D 1 )z(ξ − δ) − A 2 g(z(ξ )) − B 2 g(z(ξ − τ(ξ)) ) − C 2  ξ ξ−σ (ξ ) g(z(s))ds + A 1 f (z(ξ)) + B 1 f (z(ξ − τ (ξ))) + C 1  ξ ξ−σ (ξ ) f (z(s))ds − u(ξ)+I 1 (ξ) − I 2 (ξ)+KK 1 x(ξ) + KK 2 x(ξ − δ)+KK 3 x(ξ − τ(ξ )) + KK 4 x(ξ − σ(ξ ))  dξ. (6) According to the sliding mode control theory [44], it is true that S(t)=0and ˙ S ( t ) = 0 as the state trajectories of the error system (4) enter into the sliding mode. It Song and Cao Advances in Difference Equations 2011, 2011:16 http://www.advancesindifferenceequations.com/content/2011/1/16 Page 4 of 17 thus follows from (6) and ˙ S ( t ) = 0 that an equivalent control law can be designed as u (t )=(D 2 − D 1 )z(t − δ) − A 2 g(z(t)) − B 2 g(z(t − τ(t))) − C 2  t t−σ (t) g(z(s))ds + A 1 f (z(t)) + B 1 f (z(t − τ (t))) + C 1  t t−σ (t) f (z(s))ds + I 1 (t ) − I 2 (t ) + KK 1 x ( t ) + KK 2 x ( t − δ ) + KK 3 x ( t − τ ( t )) + KK 4 x ( t − σ ( t )). (7) Substituting (7) into (4), the sliding mode dynamics can be obtained and described by ˙ x(t )=− KK 1 x(t ) − (D 1 + KK 2 )x(t − δ) − KK 3 x(t − τ (t)) − KK 4 x(t − σ (t) ) + A 1 h(x(t)) + B 1 h(x(t − τ (t))) + C 1  t t−σ ( t ) h(x(s))ds. (8) Throughout this paper, we make the following assumption: (H). For any j Î {1, 2, , n}, there exist constants F − j , F + j , G − j and G + j such that F − j ≤ f j (α 1 ) − f j (α 2 ) α 1 − α 2 ≤ F + j , G − j ≤ g j (α 1 ) − g j (α 2 ) α 1 − α 2 ≤ G + j for all a 1 ≠ a 2 . To prove our result, the following lemma that can be found in [41] is necessary. Lemma 1 For any constant matrix W Î R m × m , W >0,scalar 0 <h(t) <h,vector function ω : [0, h] ® R m such that the integrations concerned are well defined, then   h(t) 0 ω(s )ds  T W   h(t) 0 ω(s )ds  ≤ h( t)  h(t) 0 ω T (s)Wω(s)ds .
