Response functions are a key quantity to describe the near-equilibrium dynamics of strongly interacting many-body systems. Recent techniques that attempt to overcome the challenges of calculating these ab initio have employed expansions in terms of orthogonal polynomials. We employ a neural network prediction algorithm to reconstruct a response function $S\left(\omega \right)$ defined over a range in frequencies $\omega$. We represent the calculated response function as a truncated Chebyshev series whose coefficients can be optimized to reduce the representation error. We compare the quality of response functions obtained using coefficients calculated using a neural network (NN) algorithm with those computed using the Gaussian integral transform (GIT) method. In the regime where only a small number of terms in the Chebyshev series are retained, we find that the NN scheme outperforms the GIT method.
