Deep ReLU Networks Can Fail the Best Approximation Property for Continuous Target Functions

arXiv:2610. 31264v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We construct a continuous function on $[-1,1]^2$ for which the infimum of the $L^2$-approximation error over the class of ReLU networks with two hidden layers and architecture $(2,2,1,1)$ is not attained.

Error bounds in Sobolev norms for approximations with norm constrained ReLU neural networks

Recent studies have shown that smooth functions can be well approximated by ReLU neural networks with path norm constraint on the weights. We extend these results from uniform approximation to approximation in Sobolev norm.
