Kolmogorov Superpositions

Author(s):

Kolmogorov’s superpositions enable the representation of every real-valued continuous function f defined on the Euclidean n-cube in the form , with continuous functions that compute f, and fixed continuous functions dependent only on n. The functions specify space-filling curves that determine characteristics that are not suitable for efficient computational algorithms. Reversing the process, we specify suitable space-filling curves that enable new functions that give a computational algorithm better adaptable to applications. Detailed numerical constructions are worked out for the case n = 2.

The chapter is an extensive account of the metric topology and is a prerequisite for all the subsequent chapters. The leading sections develop the basic metric properties such as closure and interior, continuity and equivalent metrics, separation properties, product spaces, and countability axioms. This is followed by a detailed study of completeness, compactness, local compactness, and function spaces. Chapter applications include contraction mappings, continuous nowhere differentiable functions, space-filling curves, closed convex subsets of ?n, and a number of approximation results. The chapter concludes with a detailed section on orthogonal polynomials and Fourier series of continuous functions, which, together with section 3.7, provides an excellent background for Hilbert spaces. The study of sequence and function spaces in this chapter leads up gradually into Banach spaces.

It has long been known that there is a close connection between stochastic independence of continuous functions on an interval and space-filling curves [9]. In fact any two nonconstant continuous functions on [0, 1] which are independent relative to Lebesgue measure are the coordinate functions of a space filling curve. (The results of Steinhaus [9] have apparently been overlooked in more recent work in this area [3, 5, 6].)

AbstractThe notions of almost somewhat near continuity of functions and near regularity of spaces are introduced. Some properties of almost somewhat nearly continuous functions and their connections are studied. At the end, it is shown that a one-to-one almost somewhat nearly continuous function f from a space X onto a space Y is somewhat nearly continuous if and only if the range of f is nearly regular.

AbstractAny real continuous bounded function of many variables is representable as a superposition of functions of one variable and addition. Depending on the type of superposition, the requirements for the functions of one variable differ. The article investigated one of the options for the numerical implementation of such a superposition proposed by Sprecher. The superposition was presented as a three-layer Feedforward neural network, while the functions of the first’s layer were considered as a generator of space-filling curves (Peano curves). The resulting neural network was applied to the problems of direct kinematics of parallel manipulators.

Recently a new class of functions between topological spaces, called weaklyθ-continuous functions, has been introduced and studied. In this paper we show how an appropriate change of topology on the domain of a weaklyθ-continuous function reduces it to a weakly continuous function. This paper examines some of the consequences of this result.
