| contents | This paper is concerned with the modeling and analysis of two of the most commonly used recurrent neural network models (i.e., Hopfield neural network and firing-rate neural network) with dynamic recurrent connections undergoing Hebbian learning rules. To capture the synaptic sparsity of neural circuits we propose a low dimensional formulation. We then characterize certain key dynamical properties. First, we give biologically-inspired forward invariance results. Then, we give sufficient conditions for the non-Euclidean contractivity of the models. Our contraction analysis leads to stability and robustness of time-varying trajectories -- for networks with both excitatory and inhibitory synapses governed by both Hebbian and anti-Hebbian rules. For each model, we propose a contractivity test based upon biologically meaningful quantities, e.g., neural and synaptic decay rate, maximum in-degree, and the maximum synaptic strength. Then, we show that the models satisfy Dale's Principle. Finally, we illustrate the effectiveness of our results via a numerical example. |
