contents In this paper, we study neural networks from the point of view of nonsmooth optimisation, namely, quasidifferential calculus. We restrict ourselves to the case of uniform approximation by a neural network without hidden layers, the activation functions are restricted to continuous strictly increasing functions. We develop an algorithm for computing the approximation with one hidden layer through a step-by-step procedure. The nonsmooth analysis techniques demonstrated their efficiency. In particular, they partially explain why the developed step-by-step procedure may run without any objective function improvement after just one step of the procedure.
