Abstract.
Ridge functions are defined as functions of the form \(f(\mbox{\footnotesize\bf a}\cdot \mbox{\footnotesize\bf x})\) , where \(f\colon\ {\Bbb R}\rightarrow {\Bbb R}\) , \(\mbox{\footnotesize\bf x}\in {\Bbb R}^k$, and $\mbox{\footnotesize\bf a}\) belongs to the given ``direction'' set \(A\subset {\Bbb R}^k\) . In this paper we study the fundamentality of ridge functions for variable directions sets A and discuss the rate of approximation by ridge functions.
