arXiv:2604.17967v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: 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. This yields an explicit set-function representation of each neuron decision, and an associated rule-based representation. We also provide a Sugeno-integral expression for the last-layer score. Finally, we discuss how the same framework can be adapted to support richer input interactions and how it can be extended beyond the binary case induced by binarized neural networks.
