Bartels-Stewart algorithm is an effective and widely used method with an O(n (3)) time complexity for solving a static Sylvester equation. When applied to time-varying Sylvester equation, the computation burden increases intensively with the decrease of sampling period and cannot satisfy continuous realtime calculation requirements. Gradient-based recurrent neural network are able to solve the time-varying Sylvester equation in real time but there always exists an estimation error. In contrast, the recently proposed Zhang neural network has been proven to converge to the solution of the Sylvester equation ideally when time goes to infinity. However, this neural network with the suggested activation functions never converges to the desired value in finite time, which may limit its applications in realtime processing. To tackle this problem, a sign-bi-power activation function is proposed in this paper to accelerate Zhang neural network to finite-time convergence. The global convergence and finite-time convergence property are proven in theory. The upper bound of the convergence time is derived analytically. Simulations are performed to evaluate the performance of the neural network with the proposed activation function. In addition, the proposed strategy is applied to online calculating the pseudo-inverse of a matrix and nonlinear control of an inverted pendulum system. Both theoretical analysis and numerical simulations validate the effectiveness of proposed activation function.
