Detection of Autosymmetry in Logic Functions Using Spectrum Technique(Computer System Element)

概要

The discrete nature of data in a functional domain can generally be replaced by the global nature of data in the spectrum domain. In this paper we propose a fast procedure to detect autosymmetric function as an application of the spectrum technique. The autosymmetric function differs from the usual symmetric function and strongly relates with EXOR-based representations. It is known that many practical logical networks are autosymmetric, and this nature allows a useful functional class to realize a compact network with EXOR gates. Our procedure is able to detect autosymmetric functions quickly by using spectral coefficients. In experiments, our technique can detect the autosymmetry of most networks with a small number of checks of the spectrum.
