In this paper, the problem of adaptive neural state-feedback tracking control is considered for a class of stochastic nonstrict-feedback nonlinear switched systems with completely unknown nonlinearities. In the design procedure, the universal approximation capability of radial basis function neural networks is used for identifying the unknown compounded nonlinear functions, and a variable separation technique is employed to overcome the design difficulty caused by the nonstrict-feedback structure. The most outstanding novelty of this paper is that individual Lyapunov function of each subsystem is constructed by flexibly adopting the upper and lower bounds of the control gain functions of each subsystem. Furthermore, by combining the average dwell-time scheme and the adaptive backstepping design, a valid adaptive neural state-feedback controller design algorithm is presented such that all the signals of the switched closed-loop system are in probability semiglobally uniformly ultimately bounded, and the tracking error eventually converges to a small neighborhood of the origin in probability. Finally, the availability of the developed control scheme is verified by two simulation examples.
