The paper explores the theoretical efficiency of neural operator approximations for Lipschitz continuous operators, addressing the “curse of parametric complexity” in specific architectures. It adopts an information-theoretic perspective to establish lower bounds on the metric entropy of Lipschitz operators in two approximation settings: uniform and expectation-based. The results imply that achieving a certain accuracy requires exponentially large architectures, measured by encoded bits necessary to store the model in memory.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
The paper looks at how well neural networks can approximate certain types of mathematical operators, like those used in physics or engineering. It tries to understand why some neural network designs are better than others for this task. The results show that if you want a high level of accuracy, you need a very large and complex neural network.
