Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks outperform MLPs in FTN signaling detection

A new research paper compares the effectiveness of Multilayer Perceptrons (MLPs) and Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks (KANs) for detecting Faster-than-Nyquist (FTN) signaling. The study generated a large dataset of nearly four million labeled windows for FTN BPSK detection under additive white Gaussian noise. Results indicate that KANs significantly outperform MLPs, achieving a much lower bit error rate with substantially fewer parameters. AI

IMPACT Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks demonstrate superior efficiency and performance over traditional MLPs for signal detection tasks, potentially influencing future research in communications.

    A Comparative Analysis of MLP and Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks (KAN) for Faster-than-Nyquist (FTN) Signaling Detection

    arXiv:2608.02062v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Faster-than-Nyquist signaling improves spectral ef- ficiency by deliberately introducing inter-symbol interference. Classical sequence detectors such as BCJR can approach optimal performance, but their computational cost grows rap…
