Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks are Radial Basis Function Networks
<|reference_start|>Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks are Radial Basis Function Networks: This short paper is a fast proof-of-concept that the 3-order B-splines used in Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks (KANs) can be well approximated by Gaussian radial basis functions. Doing so leads to FastKAN, a much faster implementation of KAN which is also a radial basis function (RBF) network.<|reference_end|>
