这个不是高中学过的穿针引线法吗?

This video, created by my dear coauthor Mahdi E Kahou for our teaching and papers, shows how overparameterized neural networks produce smooth function approximations even in the context of the Runge phenomenon. Some background. Imagine you want to approximate the Runge function using polynomial interpolation at equally spaced points. It is well known that, despite targeting an infinitely differentiable function, such a polynomial approximation produces oscillatory behavior that worsens with the degree of the polynomial. In other words, higher-degree polynomial approximations might not improve accuracy. Instead, approximate the Runge function with a neural network (here, two layers are just to make the example concrete; nothing fundamental depends on it). As you increase the number of parameters well above the 11 training points (in our example, a two-layer neural network with 128 nodes each), you nicely converge to the target, without wild oscillations. Yes, this has much to do with double descent and benign overparameterization, but the main punchline of this post is that neural networks are really very different types of animals than polynomial approximations. And yes, Chebyshev nodes and splines exist, and in this case, they will prevent the oscillations. But that's not the point. Chebyshev nodes and splines still confront Faber’s theorem, which states that for any system of polynomial interpolation nodes, there exists a continuous function whose sequence of interpolating polynomials diverges as the number of nodes grows to infinity. Faber’s theorem does not apply to neural networks because they are not polynomials. The notebook, if you want to check the details, is here: Stay tuned for more on this 👀
