Abstract

Universal approximation capability of feedforward neural networks with one hidden layer states that these networks are dense in the space of functions. In this paper, the concept of the Mellin approximate identity functions is proposed. By using this concept, It is shown that feedforward Mellin approximate identity neural networks with one hidden layer can approximate any positive real continuous function to any degree of accuracy. Moreover, universal approximation capability of these networks is extended to positive real Lebesgue spaces.
