Measure Theoretic Results for Approximation by Neural Networks with Limited Weights

Vugar E. Ismailov, Ekrem Savaș · Numerical Functional Analysis and Optimization · 2017

In this article, we study approximation properties of single hidden layer neural networks with weights varying in finitely many directions and with thresholds from an open interval. We obtain a necessary and simultaneously sufficient measure theoretic condition for density of such networks in the space of continuous functions. Further, we prove a density result for neural networks with a specifically constructed activation function and a fixed number of neurons.
