چکیده

-1 Abstract: An algorithm called XOF.GA is presented which minimises Boolean mult i-output logic functions as multilevel ANDEXOR networks of two-input logic gates. It carries out symbolic simplification, and works from tlhe bottom of a binary variable decision tree to tlhe top, with variable choice determined using a genetic algorithm. Since the algorithm is multilevel in nature, it delivers more compact circuits than two-level ESOP minimisation algorithrrts, such as EXMIN2. it also finds more economical representations than the fixed polarity Ree& Muller method.

An Improved Algorithm for Network Reliability Evaluation

Binary Decision Diagram (BDD) is a data structure proved to be compact in representation and efficient in manipulation of Boolean formulas. Using Binary decision diagram in network reliability analysis has already been investigated by some researchers. In this paper we show how an exact algorithm for network reliability can be improved and implemented efficiently by using CUDD - Colorado Univer...

An Exact Minimization of AND-EXOR Expressions Using Reduced Covering Functions

This paper considers a method to derive an EXOR sum-of-products expression (ESOP) having the minimum number of products for a given logic function. The minimization method uses a reduced covering function, which is an improvement of the method proposed by Perkowski and ChrzanowskaJeske. Binary Decision Diagrams (BDDs) are used to obtain exact solutions. Various techniques to reduce computation ...

On an optimization technique using Binary Decision Diagram

Two-level logic minimization is a central problem in logic synthesis, and has applications in reliability analysis and automated reasoning. This paper represents a method of minimizing Boolean sum of products function with binary decision diagram and with disjoint sum of product minimization. Due to the symbolic representation of cubes for large problem instances, the method is orders of magnit...

A New Algorithm for Optimization of Fuzzy Decision Tree in Data Mining

Decision-tree algorithms provide one of the most popular methodologies for symbolic knowledge acquisition. The resulting knowledge, a symbolic decision tree along with a simple inference mechanism, has been praised for comprehensibility. The most comprehensible decision trees have been designed for perfect symbolic data. Classical crisp decision trees (DT) are widely applied to classification t...
