New theory quantifies depth's role in deep neural network approximation

A new research paper published on arXiv explores the theoretical underpinnings of deep neural networks, focusing on the role of depth in their approximation capabilities. The study introduces a quantitative framework that interprets depth as a scale-dependent factor, providing guarantees for intermediate network layers, not just the final output. This work designs a specific architecture where each intermediate readout approximates the target function, with approximation error controlled by the network's depth and the function's properties.
