We first present a brief survey of hardness results for training feedforward neural networks. These results are then completed by the proof that the simplest architecture containing only a single neuron that applies the standard (logistic) activation function to the weighted sum of n inputs is hard to train. In particular,the problem of finding the weights of such a unit that minimize the relative quadratic training error within 1 or its average (over a training set) within 13/(31n) of its infimum proves...
