Probabilistic-based methods have been used for designing noise tolerant circuits recently. In these methods, however, there is not any reliability mechanism that is essential for nanometer digital VLSI circuits. In this paper, we propose a novel method for designing reliable probabilistic-based logic gates. The advantage of the proposed method in comparison with previous probabilistic-based met...

Abstract Probabilistic logic programming (PLP) combines programs and probabilities. Due to its expressiveness simplicity, it has been considered as a powerful tool for learning reasoning in relational domains characterized by uncertainty. Still, the parameter structure of general PLP is computationally expensive due inference cost. We have recently proposed restriction language called hierarchi...
