Kolmogorov Arnold networks, based on the Kolmogorov Arnold representation theorem, provide a compact alternative to conventional neural networks by placing learnable functions on edges rather than nodes. While highly expressive in classical settings, their potential in quantum machine learning remains largely unexplored. In this work, we present an implementation of these KAN architectures in both hybrid and fully quantum forms using a Quantum Circuit Born Machine. We adapt the KAN transfer using pre-trained residual functions, thereby exploiting the representational power of parametrized quantum circuits. In the hybrid model we combine classical KAN components with quantum subroutines, while the fully quantum version the entire architecture of the residual function is translated to a quantum model. We demonstrate the feasibility, interpretability and performance of the proposed Quantum KAN (QuKAN) architecture.
