Researchers have developed a novel class of deep weighted polynomials designed to uniformly approximate functions with asymmetric growth and decay characteristics. This method addresses limitations of traditional polynomials in handling functions that grow unbounded on one side of the real line while decaying to zero on the other. The approach involves a weight that suppresses polynomial growth on the decaying side, allowing the composite polynomial to capture unbounded growth. The paper details the formulation as a trainable computational graph and introduces a fine-tuning procedure to mitigate ill-conditioning and local minima, reducing the problem to a linear program for parameter training. Numerical experiments demonstrate improved uniform and L2 errors compared to baseline methods, particularly for functions like those in Black-Scholes option pricing. AI
