Bernstein inequalities and inverse theorems for RBF approximation on

Abstract: Bernstein inequalities and inverse theorems are a recent development in the theory of radial basis function (RBF) approximation. The purpose of this paper is to extend what is known by deriving Bernstein inequalities for RBF networks on . These inequalities involve bounding a Bessel-potential norm of an RBF network by its corresponding norm in terms of the separation radius associated with the network. The Bernstein inequalities will then be used to prove the corresponding inverse theorem. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
