The universal approximation theorem states that a neural network with one hidden layer can approximate continuous functions on compact sets with any desired precision.

Or…. it could be a single spline 🙄

If you want 25 minutes of how to make a universal function approximation, there's a great video by this one guy who gave it a shot with a handful of methods. Really cool to observe the thinking behind it

You spelled Stone-Weierstrass wrong

You are talking about general curve fitting (all NNs do) but are wrong about any desired precision. The precision is directly proportional to width of the single layer. Which also means if you are dealing with periodic functions, then nyquist sampling theorem shall apply.

Omg this is the thing they make me draw in math class…

“The Universal Approximation Theorem means that a simple neural network can accurately model any continuous function within a certain set, as long as it has enough neurons. It's like a versatile tool for many tasks.”

Is this a consequence that continuous functions can be approximated by piecewise functions ?

Does that mean multiple hidden layers handle discontinuity?

How about functions mapping vectors to vectors? Or complex vectors?

How does the architecture of a neural network change when incorporating multiple hidden layers, and how does this relate to the universal approximation theorem?
