Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Space
In functional analysis (a branch of mathematics), a reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS) is a Hilbert space of functions in which point evaluation is a continuous linear functional. Roughly speaking, this means that if two functions f and g in the RKHS are close in norm, i.e., \, f-g\, is small, then f and g are also pointwise close, i.e., , f(x)-g(x), is small for all x. The converse does not need to be true. Informally, this can be shown by looking at the supremum norm: the sequence of functions \sin^n (x) converges pointwise, but do not converge uniformly i.e. do not converge with respect to the supremum norm (note that this is not a counterexample because the supremum norm does not arise from any inner product due to not satisfying the parallelogram law). It is not entirely straightforward to construct a Hilbert space of functions which is not an RKHS. Some examples, however, have been found. Note that ''L''2 spaces are not Hilbert spaces of functions (and hence not RKH ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
