In this paper, the exponential synchronization problem for fuzzy Cohen-Grossberg neural networks with time-varying delays, stochastic noise disturbance, and reaction-diffusion effects are investigated. By introducing a novel Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional with the idea of delay partitioning, a periodically intermittent controller is developed to derive sufficient conditions ensuring the addressed neural networks to be exponentially synchronized in terms of p-norm. The results extend and improve upon earlier work. A numerical example is provided to show the effectiveness of the proposed theories.
