contents This article focuses on solving parametric transmission problems in one and two spatial dimensions. These problems belong to a class of partial differential equations that arise in the modeling of physical systems with heterogeneous materials. They often exhibit discontinuities across interfaces and singularities at points where interfaces intersect. To address these problems, we propose a new deep learning approach named {\it{Least-Squares-Based Regularity-Conforming Neural Network (LS-ReCoNN)}}. This approach proposes a loss function that is shown to be a consistent upper bound for the energy-norm error. The method represents the solution as the sum of a principal component and a singular component. The principal component is decomposed into smooth and gradient-jump parts, which capture both the regular solution behavior and reduced regularity across interfaces in one- and two-dimensional problems. The singular component is introduced to model junction singularities and it is approximated using basis functions computed from a one-dimensional finite element eigenvalue problem. For the principal component, a separated representation is employed, consisting of parameter-dependent coefficients and space-dependent functions. A deep neural network approximates the space-dependent functions, while the parameter-dependent coefficients are determined by a least-squares solver, where the optimal coefficients for each parameter instance are obtained online by solving a low-dimensional least-squares problem. Numerical experiments in one and two dimensions demonstrate that LS-ReCoNN effectively captures singularities while maintaining solution accuracy across a wide range of parameter values.
