In this paper we contribute to the frequently studied question of how to decompose a continuous piecewise linear (CPWL) function into a difference of two convex CPWL functions. Every CPWL function has infinitely many such decompositions,…
A deep neural network using rectified linear units represents a continuous piecewise linear (CPWL) function and vice versa. Recent results in the literature estimated that the number of neurons needed to exactly represent any CPWL function…
We prove lower bounds on the error incurred when approximating any oscillating function using piecewise polynomial spaces. The estimates are explicit in the polynomial degree and have optimal dependence on the meshwidth and frequency when…
Many computer vision and human-computer interaction applications developed in recent years need evaluating complex and continuous mathematical functions as an essential step toward proper operation. However, rigorous evaluation of this kind…
Recently, the interpretability of deep learning has attracted a lot of attention. A plethora of methods have attempted to explain neural networks by feature visualization, saliency maps, model distillation, and so on. However, it is hard…
We show optimal triangulations for piecewise linear (PWL) approximations of indefinite quadratic functions over the plane. Optimal triangulations have minimum triangle density while allowing a PWL approximation that fulfills a prescribed…
We compute the closest convex piecewise linear-quadratic (PLQ) function with minimal number of pieces to a given univariate piecewise linear-quadratic function. The Euclidean norm is used to measure the distance between functions. First, we…
Motivated by conforming finite element methods for elliptic problems of second order, we analyze the approximation of the gradient of a target function by continuous piecewise polynomial functions over a simplicial mesh. The main result is…
The purpose of the paper is to provide a characterization of the error of the best polynomial approximation of composite functions in weighted spaces. Such a characterization is essential for the convergence analysis of numerical methods…
Rectified-linear-unit (ReLU) neural networks, which play a prominent role in deep learning, generate continuous and piecewise-linear (CPWL) functions. While they provide a powerful parametric representation, the mapping between the…
We present new families of continuous piecewise linear (CPWL) functions in Rn having a number of affine pieces growing exponentially in $n$. We show that these functions can be seen as the high-dimensional generalization of the triangle…
Physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) and their variants have recently emerged as alternatives to traditional partial differential equation (PDE) solvers, but little literature has focused on devising accurate numerical integration…
We undertake a detailed study of the $L^2$ discrepancy of rational and irrational 2-dimensional lattices either with or without symmetrization. We give a full characterization of lattices with optimal $L^2$ discrepancy in terms of the…
We consider the piecewise linear approximation of saddle functions of the form $f(x,y)=ax^2-by^2$ under the L-infinity error norm. We show that interpolating approximations are not optimal. One can get slightly smaller errors by allowing…
In this paper we study the best asymmetric (sometimes also called penalized or sign-sensitive) approximation in the metrics of the space $L_p$, $1\leqslant p\leqslant\infty$, of functions $f\in C^2\left([0,1]^2\right)$ with nonnegative…
Given a piecewise linear (PL) function $p$ defined on an open subset of $\R^n$, one may construct by elementary means a unique polyhedron with multiplicities $\D(p)$ in the cotangent bundle $\R^n\times \R^{n*}$ representing the graph of the…
We study the problem of approximation of 2D set of points. Such type of problems always occur in physical experiments, econometrics, data analysis and other areas. The often problems of outliers or spikes usually make researchers to apply…
The algorithm for finding the optimal consistent approximation of an inconsistent pairwise comparisons matrix is based on a logarithmic transformation of a pairwise comparisons matrix into a vector space with the Euclidean metric.…
We consider in this paper the optimal approximations of convex univariate functions with feed-forward Relu neural networks. We are interested in the following question: what is the minimal approximation error given the number of…
The question of adaptive mesh generation for approximation by splines has been studied for a number of years by various authors. The results have numerous applications in computational and discrete geometry, computer aided geometric design,…
