Abstarct: In this thesis, we describe a neural network model baxsed on a dynamic optimization technique
for solving a class of non-smooth optimization problems with min-max objective
function. The basic idea is to replace the min-max function by a smooth one using an
entropy function. With this smoothing technique, the non-smooth problem is converted
into an equivalent differentiable convex programming problem. A neural network model is
then constructed baxsed on Karush-Kuhn-Tucker optimality conditions. It is investigated
that the proposed neural network is stable in the sense of Lyapunov and can converge to
an exact optimal solution of the original problem. The effectiveness of the method are
demonstrated by several numerical simulations.
