If f is a continuous funnction of bounded variation,we prove that d_(n,σ)(f)≤‖σ‖/(n+1)V(f)and d_(n,H)(f)≤ 1/(2(n+1))V(f).For he Heaviside function,the coefficient 1 and the approximation orders are the best possible.We compare these results with the classical Jackson and Bernstein theorems,and make some conjec- tures for further study.展开更多

This is done in the uniform norm as well as in the L^p norm. Results for the simultaneous approx- imation, with the same order of accuracy, of a function and its derivatives （whenever these exist）, are obtained. The relation with neural networks and radial basis func- tions approximations is discussed. Numerical examples are given for the purpose of illustration.展开更多

To improve the approximation rate, we further introduce a type of combinations of neurM networks. Moreover, we show that the derivatives of functions can also be simultaneously approximated by the derivatives of the combinations.
