Failure of universal approximation theorem

Posted 13 days ago

Maybe the theorem has a set of measure 0 for which it fails? I have 3 nested functions, each quadratic in its inputs. A standard multi-layer linear plus logistic NN with ADAM optimizer can't seem to minimize the loss (or it gets stuck in a local minimum). I've tried varying the number of layers, and their width, but to no avail. What's going on?

Just run the file and you'll see that the loss stays constant (and high). This doesn't occur if even one of the intermediate functions is linear, the algorithm works to reduce the loss to a small number in that case.
