FI-KAN: Fractal Interpolation Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks
Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks (KAN) employ B-spline bases on a fixed grid, providing no intrinsic multi-scale decomposition for non-smooth function approximation. We introduce Fractal Interpolation KAN (FI-KAN), which incorporates learnable fractal interpolation function (FIF) bases from iterated function system (IFS) theory into KAN. Two variants are presented: Pure FI-KAN (Barnsley, 1986) replaces B-splines entirely with FIF bases; Hybrid FI-KAN (Navascues, 2005) retains the B-spline path and adds a learnable fractal correction. The IFS contraction parameters give each edge a differentiable fractal dimension that adapts to target regularity during training. On a Holder regularity benchmark...
