ER-KANs: Efficient and Robust Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks for Data-Scarce Scientific Machine Learning

arXiv:2608. 14773v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The efficient-KAN literature---covering Chebyshev, wavelet, and radial-basis-function variants of the original Kolmogorov-Arnold Network---has been benchmarked almost entirely on clean data.

An Embedded RISC-V Evaluation of Kolmogorov--Arnold Networks in Hard-Constrained Recurrent Physics-Informed Models

arXiv:2608. 00737v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Hard-constrained recurrent physics-informed networks (HRPINNs) embed known dynamics inside a recurrent numerical integrator and restrict a neural branch to learning only the residual dynamics that the first-principles model does not capture.

Neural scaling laws and evolution of learnable activation functions of Kolmogorov-Arnold networks

The paper studies Kolmogorov‑Arnold Networks (KANs), a neural architecture that treats activation functions as learnable components, offering improved interpretability for scientific applications. It investigates how KANs scale with dataset size on image classification tasks (MNIST, Fashion‑MNIST) and a magnetic‑parameter regression task, revealing a broken neural scaling law that transitions from a faster to a slower decay of test loss as data grows. The authors also analyze how the learned activation functions evolve from simple linear approximations to more complex, interpretable symbolic forms as more data is provided.

RoBell-RVFL: A Robust Generalized Bell Random Vector Functional Link Network

RoBell-RVFL is a lightweight, quality‑aware generalized bell random vector functional link network designed to address class imbalance and noisy data in real‑world datasets. It uses a dual‑strategy sample‑level weighting: unit weights preserve minority class information, while a probability‑weighted generalized bell membership function suppresses noisy majority samples in a kernel‑induced feature space. Experiments on UCI and KEEL benchmarks, including tests with up to 40% label noise, show that RoBell‑RVFL consistently outperforms recent RVFL variants, demonstrating the importance of adaptive, quality‑aware sample weighting for robust learning.

Kolmogorov Arnold networks (KAN) for aerodynamic prediction: a comparison with MLPs and GNNs

arXiv:2606. 27126v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Kolmogorov Arnold networks (KAN) have recently been introduced as a (deep) neural network architecture whose trainable parameters adapt the activation functions, instead of the coefficients of the affine transformations at the core of traditional architectures such as deep multilayer perceptrons (MLPs).

Monotonic Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks: A Theoretical and Empirical Study of Monotonicity as an Inductive Bias

Monotonicity has been a long-running architectural inductive bias for neural networks, motivated by tabular, scientific, and economic settings where outputs are known to respond monotonically to certain inputs. Existing approaches are MLP- or flow-based and lack per-edge functional transparency; the only Kolmogorov--Arnold Network (KAN) variant with monotonicity, MonoKAN, enforces the constraint only on a restricted parameter subset and requires a projection-style training procedure.

Kolmogorov Arnold networks (KAN) for aerodynamic prediction: a comparison with MLPs and GNNs

Kolmogorov Arnold networks (KAN) have recently been introduced as a (deep) neural network architecture whose trainable parameters adapt the activation functions, instead of the coefficients of the affine transformations at the core of traditional architectures such as deep multilayer perceptrons (MLPs). This architecture builds on the Kolmogorov-Arnold theorem, which endows it with universal approximation properties.
