Core Innovations
RAN introduces Padé-style rational units and functional ANOVA decomposition, offering enhanced stability and interpretability over traditional MLPs and spline-based KANs.
Performance & Efficiency
RAN consistently matches or surpasses parameter-matched MLPs and KANs across diverse benchmarks, demonstrating better stability, throughput, and significantly improved extrapolation.
Interpretability & Discovery
The ANOVA structure and rational parameterization enable explicit low-order interaction bias, leading to symbolic discovery and better understanding of underlying physical laws, outperforming other methods in tasks like symbolic regression.
RAN improves Top-1 accuracy from 72.3% (MLP baseline) to 74.2% under the same Params/FLOPs, attributed to learnable rational nonlinearities and stabilization constraints.
Enterprise Process Flow
| Feature | MLP | KAN | RAN (Ours) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Nonlinearity Type | Fixed (ReLU/GELU) | Learnable (Splines) | Learnable (Rational Units) |
| Interaction Topology | Dense Entanglement | Dense, Edge-based | Sparse ANOVA Decomposition |
| Poles/Stability | Generally Stable | Boundary Instability/Ripples | Pole-Free (Positive Denominator) |
| Interpretability | Low | Moderate (Manual Pruning) | High (Automated Symbolic Discovery) |
| Extrapolation | Poor (Linear Bias) | Poor (Runge Phenomenon) | Excellent (Global Rational Fit) |
Case Study: Lorentzian Potential Discovery
RAN's Parameter Efficiency in Action
In a 'Davids vs. Goliaths' experiment, RAN with only 72 parameters outperformed MLPs and KANs (with 5000+ parameters) in discovering the Lorentzian potential. RAN achieved 100x better precision and successfully recovered the exact symbolic form, demonstrating that structural alignment (matching inductive bias to target function) is more critical than parameter quantity for scientific modeling tasks.
