We investigate the approximation of functions $f$ on a bounded domain $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^d$ by the outputs of single-hidden-layer ReLU neural networks of width $n$. This form of nonlinear $n$-term dictionary approximation has been intensely studied since it is the simplest case of neural network approximation (NNA). There are several celebrated approximation results for this form of NNA that introduce novel model classes of functions on $\Omega$ whose approximation rates avoid the curse of dimensionality. These novel classes include Barron classes, and classes based on sparsity or variation such as the Radon-domain BV classes. The present paper is concerned with the definition of these novel model classes on domains $\Omega$. The current definition of these model classes does not depend on the domain $\Omega$. A new and more proper definition of model classes on domains is given by introducing the concept of weighted variation spaces. These new model classes are intrinsic to the domain itself. The importance of these new model classes is that they are strictly larger than the classical (domain-independent) classes. Yet, it is shown that they maintain the same NNA rates.

通过引入加权变分空间的概念，本文给出了在域中定义这些新模型类的更加恰当的定义。这些新模型类固有于域本身，并且与经典（与域无关）模型类相比更大，但仍然保持着相同的神经网络逼近速率。
