Researchers have developed a new method for approximating multivariate Hölder-continuous functions using feedforward neural networks. The study establishes the minimum number of hidden neurons required for arbitrary accuracy in the uniform norm, proving that for d>=2 dimensions, a network with two hidden layers can achieve this with widths d and 1. The proposed constructions utilize explicit grid addressing and integer encoding of quantized function values, achieving bit complexity that closely matches theoretical lower bounds. AI
