Abstract: | We prove that an artificial neural network with multiple hidden layers and akth-order sigmoidal response function can be used to approximate any continuous function on any compact subset of a Euclidean space so as to achieve the Jackson rate of approximation. Moreover, if the function to be approximated has an analytic extension, then a nearly geometric rate of approximation can be achieved. We also discuss the problem of approximation of a compact subset of a Euclidean space with such networks with a classical sigmoidal response function.Dedicated to Dr. C.A.
