In case you do not know, Adrian Martinez and Taylor Martinez are not the same person. This is Taylor Martinez.
This is a question I have always had : Early on in machine learning history, the perceptron algorithm was invented for classification tasks (the perceptron being the predecessor to the multi layered perceptron, i.e. the modern neural network). Later on, the Universal Approximation Theorem was developed that showed a simple neural network is able to well-approximate any continuous function.
A few hundred years before that, both Taylor Polynomials and Fourier Series were developed - both of these are also able to approximate continuous functions as well.
I know this sounds like a stupid question: but at what point did people abandon the idea of using Taylor Polynomials and Fourier Series for function approximation? Were there certain problems associated with using these methods for function approximation? What lead to the decline of these methods?
Thanks
For a book I'm writing, I am including an illustration which is of a Taylor Series question.
The point of it is 'the right answer to the wrong question' (and wasting time in the process).
Regarding the maths, is there anything about this image you would change?
(I'm not a maths student and I have never studied Taylors Series)

For a price range under $1000, would a taylor, even if layered, be better than a solid?

Party: Whig
Home State: Virginia
Term: 1849-1850
Possibly the most forgotten president in history, Taylor was an amazing general. He fought bravely during the Mexican war and sought to stop the expansion of slavery. Out of the forgotten presidents (like Tyler, Hayes or McKinley), Taylor may have just been the wisest. There isn't much I wanna talk about Taylor in the opening and so instead I will share some Taylor quotes:
''The idea that I should become president seems to me too visionary to require a serious answer. It has never entered my head, nor is it likely to enter the head of any other person.''
''Stop your nonsense and drink your whiskey!''
''Never judge a stranger by his clothes.''
DOMESTIC POLICY
Slavery
Taylor came into office with political turmoil. The country just rapidly expanded under President Polk, but what many didn't think about when gaining the territory was what to do with it. Taylor owned about 200 slaves but not because he supported the practice. He did not want slavery to expand. He sided with Northern Whigs who did not like slavery such as William Seward.
Taylor suggested to sign the Wilmot Proviso, which would have banned slavery in all new acquired territories, if it reached his desk. Taylor also wish one Mexican territory, California, to be a free state and pushed for it. He dispatched Thomas Butler King to inspect the territory and it's quality of life and the administration came to the conclusion that it would eventually adopt an anti-slavery conclusion, therefore Taylor championed the cause. After that, he also started supported statehood for New Mexico and started organizing Utah Territory, which would finish when President Fillmore appointed Brigham Young.
By now, he was no longer divided, he was strongly against secession and even threatened to hang anyone who tried to secede from the Union. This even included his cousin in law, Jefferson Davis.
Economics
Something that is often forgotten about Taylor is that he was incredibly ambitious in economics. He proposed higher tariffs in order to prevent slower economic growth considering that federal spending increased in the recent years. He asked Congress to raise tariffs but it was already occupied with the slavery question and so it did not react and neither did his cabinet.
Besides tariffs, Taylor also proposed a branch mint in San Francisco, which opened in 1854, replacing the private gold coining operations there. Also, the Southwest was t

That is all.
The answer is yes, I'd have thought? But if the function we are expanding is real, then the coefficients will also always be real?
