A Sugeno Integral View of Binarized Neural Network Inference

ArXi:2604.17967v1 Announce Type: cross In this article, we establish a precise connection between binarized neural networks (BNNs) and Sugeno integrals. The advantage of the Sugeno integral is that it provides a framework for representing the importance of inputs and their interactions, while being equivalent to a set of if-then rules. For a hidden BNN neuron at inference time, we show that the activation threshold test can be written as a Sugeno integral on binary inputs.
