Many problems arising in science and engineering aim to find a function which is the optimal value of a specified functional. Some examples include optimal control, inverse analysis and optimal shape design.

Produktbeschreibung
Many problems arising in science and engineering aim to find a function which is the optimal value of a specified functional. Some examples include optimal control, inverse analysis and optimal shape design. Only some of these, regarded as variational problems, can be solved analytically, and the only general technique is to approximate the solution using direct methods. Unfortunately, variational problems are very difficult to solve, and it becomes necessary to innovate in the field of numerical methods in order to overcome the difficulties. The objective of this PhD Thesis is to develop a conceptual theory of neural networks from the perspective of functional analysis and variational calculus. Within this formulation, learning means to solve a variational problem by minimizing an objective functional associated to the neural network. The choice of the objective functional depends on the particular application. On the other side, its evaluation might need the integration of functions, ordinary differential equations or partial differential equations. As it will be shown, neural networks are able to deal with a wide range of applications in mathematics and physics.
