Abstract

In this paper, we investigate the outer synchronization between two uncertain complex delayed networks with noise coupling. With an adaptive control scheme, sufficient conditions for the stochastic outer synchronization are developed based on the LaSalle invariance principle for stochastic differential equations. Different from existing results, our method is valid for networks with linear or nonlinear inner coupling. Finally, numerical simulations are performed to verify the effectiveness of the proposed synchronization scheme.
