## Abstract

Nowadays, deep learning models are increasingly required to be both interpretable and highly accurate. We present an approach that integrates Kolmogorov-Arnold Network (KAN) classification heads and Fuzzy Pooling into convolutional neural networks (CNNs). By utilizing the interpretability of KAN and the uncertainty handling capabilities of fuzzy logic, the integration shows potential for improved performance in image classification tasks. Our comparative analysis demonstrates that the modified CNN architecture with KAN and Fuzzy Pooling achieves comparable or higher accuracy than traditional models. The findings highlight the effectiveness of combining fuzzy logic and KAN to develop more interpretable and efficient deep learning models. Future work will aim to expand this approach across larger datasets.

## Recorded benchmark results

A research result applies to its stated dataset, split, metric and evaluation configuration. Compare like-for-like settings, preserve the metric's unit and direction, and distinguish paper-reported results from independent reproduction. The best result recorded here is not a claim of exhaustive, current global coverage.
