CIFNet: An Analytic Neural Learning Framework for Efficient and Calibrated Class-Incremental Learning

arXiv:2509. 11285v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Class-Incremental Learning (CIL) in deep neural networks is conventionally framed as an iterative gradient-based optimization problem, incurring high computational cost, hyperparameter sensitivity, and risk of catastrophic forgetting.

SW-KAN: Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks with Stieltjes-Wigert q-Orthogonal Polynomials

The paper introduces SW-KAN, a Kolmogorov‑Arnold Network that replaces traditional B‑spline activations with Stieltjes‑Wigert q‑orthogonal polynomials defined on the semi‑infinite domain (0, ∞). It addresses the domain mismatch between unbounded inputs and bounded polynomial bases by applying a smooth exponential‑of‑tanh mapping, and uses a numerically stable three‑term recurrence to evaluate polynomial expansions efficiently. Experiments on image classification and continuous function approximation show that SW‑KAN achieves better accuracy‑efficiency trade‑offs than existing polynomial KANs, especially in resource‑constrained scenarios with limited data or feature dimensionality.

Frequency Selective Neural Networks as a Foundation Architecture for Time Series Learning

The paper introduces the Frequency Selective Neural Network (FSNN), a new foundation architecture for time‑series learning that embeds advanced signal‑processing mathematics into its neural topology. By using a fully differentiable Wiener‑like filter bank optimized with complex‑domain backpropagation, FSNN autonomously discovers and isolates the precise physical modes of a given task, thereby avoiding the spectral entanglement that plagues CNNs, RNNs, and Transformers. Extensive evaluations show that FSNN achieves state‑of‑the‑art predictive performance, attaining 77.0 % average accuracy on the 10 multivariate UEA datasets and leading all major metrics on the imbalanced PTB‑XL ECG benchmark, while converging directly on physically meaningful frequency bands such as the cardiac QRS complex.
