Abstract
Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to develop a methodology for the existence and global exponential stability of the unique equilibrium point of a class of impulsive Cohen‐Grossberg neural networks.
Design/methodology/approach
The authors perform M‐matrix theory and homeomorphism mapping principle to investigate a class of impulsive Cohen‐Grossberg networks with time‐varying delays and distributed delays. The approach builds on new sufficient criterion without strict conditions imposed on self‐regulation functions.
Findings
The authors' approach results in new sufficient criteria easy to verify but without the usual assumption that the activation functions are bounded and the time‐varying delays are differentiable. An example shows the effectiveness and superiority of the obtained results over some previously known results.
Originality/value
The novelty of the proposed approach lies in removing the usual assumption that the activation functions are bounded and the time‐varying delays are differentiable, and the use of M‐matrix theory and homeomorphism mapping principle for the existence and global exponential stability of the unique equilibrium point of a class of impulsive Cohen‐Grossberg neural networks.

Abstract
Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to study the dynamic behavior of complex-valued switched grey neural network models (SGNMs) with distributed delays when the system parameters and external input are grey numbers.
Design/methodology/approach
Firstly, by using the properties of grey matrix, M-matrix theory and Homeomorphic mapping, the existence and uniqueness of equilibrium point of the SGNMs were discussed. Secondly, by constructing a proper Lyapunov functional and using the average dwell time approach and inequality technique, the robust exponential stability of the SGNMs under restricted switching was studied. Finally, a numerical example is given to verify the effectiveness of the proposed results.
Findings
Sufficient conditions for the existence and uniqueness of equilibrium point of the SGNMs have been established; sufficient conditions for guaranteeing the robust stability of the SGNMs under restricted switching have been obtained.
Originality/value
(1) Different from asymptotic stability, the exponential stability of SGNMs which include grey parameters and distributed time delays will be investigated in this paper, and the exponential convergence rate of the SGNMs can also be obtained; (2) the activation functions, self-feedback coefficients and interconnected matrices are with different forms in different subnetworks; and (3) the results obtained by LMIs approach are complicated, while the proposed sufficient conditions are straightforward, which are conducive to practical applications.

Abstract
Purpose
This paper deals with the problem of input/output-to-state stability (IOSS) of direct-form digital filters, which simultaneously contain external disturbances and two's complement nonlinearity. The nonlinearity under consideration is confined to the sector [–1, 1], which contains saturation, zeroing, two's complement and triangular.
Design/methodology/approach
The proposed condition is based on IOSS approach, which is capable of providing a framework for checking and analysing the stability of nonlinear system based on input as well as output information.
Findings
A linear matrix inequality (LMI)-based new sufficient criterion for the IOSS of the suggested system is obtained. The obtained criterion is capable of detecting the output-to-state stability (OSS) and asymptotic stability of direct-form digital filters with zero external disturbances. In addition, state-norm estimator for the filter under consideration is constructed by adopting an exponential-decay IOSS criterion. Several examples are provided to illustrate the usefulness of the proposed criteria.
Originality/value
The result of the paper is introduced for the first time, and it is suitable for stability analysis of interfered direct-form digital filter with two's complement overflow using IOSS approach.

Abstract
Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to construct a multiwing chaotic system that has hidden attractors with multiple stable equilibrium points. Because the multiwing hidden attractors chaotic systems are safer and have more dynamic behaviors, it is necessary to construct such a system to meet the needs of developing engineering.
Design/methodology/approach
By introducing a multilevel pulse function into a three-dimensional chaotic system with two stable node–foci equilibrium points, a hidden multiwing attractor with multiple stable equilibrium points can be generated. The switching behavior of a hidden four-wing attractor is studied by phase portraits and time series. The dynamical properties of the multiwing attractor are analyzed via the Poincaré map, Lyapunov exponent spectrum and bifurcation diagram. Furthermore, the hardware experiment of the proposed four-wing hidden attractors was carried out.
Findings
Not only unstable equilibrium points can produce multiwing attractors but stable node–foci equilibrium points can also produce multiwing attractors. And this system can obtain 2N + 2-wing attractors as the stage pulse of the multilevel pulse function is N. Moreover, the hardware experiment matches the simulation results well.
Originality/value
This paper constructs a new multiwing chaotic system by enlarging the number of stable node–foci equilibrium points. In addition, it is a nonautonomous system that is more suitable for practical projects. And the hardware experiment is also given in this article which has not been seen before. So, this paper promotes the development of hidden multiwing chaotic attractors in nonautonomous systems and makes sense for applications.

Abstract
Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to improve the performance of the genetic algorithm-based compliant robot path planning (GACRPP) in complex dynamic environment by proposing an improved bidirectional rapidly exploring random tree (Bi-RRT)-based population initialization method.
Design/methodology/approach
To achieve GACRPP in complex dynamic environment with high performance, an improved Bi-RRT-based population initialization method is proposed. First, the grid model is adopted to preprocess the working space of mobile robot. Second, an improved Bi-RRT is proposed to create multi-cluster connections between the starting point and the goal point. Third, the backtracking method is used to generate the initial population based on the multi-cluster connections generated by the improved Bi-RRT. Subsequently, some comparative experiments are implemented where the performances of the improved Bi-RRT-based population initialization method are compared with other population initialization methods, and the comparison results of the improved genetic algorithm (IGA) combining with the different population initialization methods are shown. Finally, the optimal path is further smoothed with the help of the technique of quadratic B-spline curves.
Findings
It is shown in the experiment results that the improved Bi-RRT-based population initialization method is capable of deriving a more diversified initial population with less execution time and the IGA combining with the proposed population initialization method outperforms the one with other population initialization methods in terms of the length of optimal path and the execution time.
Originality/value
In this paper, the Bi-RRT is introduced as a population initialization method into the GACRPP problem. An improved Bi-RRT is proposed for the purpose of increasing the diversity of initial population. To characterize the diversity of initial population, a new notion of breadth is defined in terms of Hausdorff distance between different paths.
