In this article, a delay-differential equation modeling a bidirectional associative memory (BAM) neural networks (NNs) with reaction-diffusion terms is investigated. A feedback control law is derived to achieve the state global exponential synchronization of two identical BAM NNs with reaction-diffusion terms by constructing a suitable Lyapunov functional, using the drive-response approach and some inequality technique. A novel global exponential synchronization criterion is given in terms of inequalities, which can be checked easily. A numerical example is provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed results.
