In this paper, we show that a parity function with n variables can be computed by a threshold circuit of depth O((log n)/c) and size O((2^c log n)/c), for all 1≦c≦ ⌈log(n+1)⌉-1. From this construction, we obtain an O(log n/log log n) upper bound for the depth of polylogarithmic size threshold circuits for parity functions. By using the result of Impagliazzo, Paturi and Saks [5], we also show an Ω(log n/log log n) lower bound for the depth of the threshold circuits. This is an answer ot the open question posed in [11].
