In this paper, the problem of exponential passivity analysis for uncertain neural networks with time-varying delays is considered. By constructing new augmented Lyapunov-Krasovskii's functionals and some novel analysis techniques, improved delay-dependent criteria for checking the exponential passivity of the neural networks are established. The proposed criteria are represented in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) which can be easily solved by various convex optimization algorithms. A numerical example is included to show the superiority of our results.
