چکیده

We consider the problem of computing with faulty components in the context of the Boolean decision tree model, in which cost is measured by the number of input bits queried and the responses to queries are faulty with a xed probability. We show that if f can be represented in k-DNF form and in j-CNF form, then O(n log(min(k; j)=q)) queries suuce to compute f with error probability less than q, where n is the number of input bits.

Totally Optimal Decision Trees for Monotone Boolean Functions with at Most Five Variables

In this paper, we present the empirical results for relationships between time (depth) and space (number of nodes) complexity of decision trees computing monotone Boolean functions, with at most five variables. We use Dagger (a tool for optimization of decision trees and decision rules) to conduct experiments. We show that, for each monotone Boolean function with at most five variables, there e...

On Finding Sensitivity of Quantum and Classical Gates

We consider a fault model of Boolean gates, both classical and quantum, where some of the inputs may not be connected to the actual gate hardware. This model is somewhat similar to the stuck-at model which is a very popular model in testing Boolean circuits. We consider the problem of detecting such faults; the detection algorithm can query the faulty gate and its complexity is the number of su...

Lower Bounds on Quantum Query Complexity for Read-Once Decision Trees with Parity Nodes

We introduce a complexity measure for decision trees called the soft rank, which measures how wellbalanced a given tree is. The soft rank is a somehow relaxed variant of the rank. Among all decision trees of depth d, the complete binary decision tree (the most balanced tree) has maximum soft rank d, the decision list (the most unbalanced tree) has minimum soft rank √ d, and any other trees have...

Linear Constraints over Infinite Trees

In this paper we consider linear arithmetic constraints over infinite trees whose nodes are labelled with nonnegative real numbers. These constraints arose in the context of resource inference for objectoriented programs but should be of independent interest. It is as yet open whether satisfiability of these constraint systems is at all decidable. For a restricted fragment motivated from the ap...

Towards a Better Understanding of the Functionality of a Conflict-Driven SAT Solver

We show that modern conflict-driven SAT solvers implicitly build and prune a decision tree whose nodes are associated with flipped variables. Practical usefulness of conflict-driven learning schemes, like 1UIP or AllUIP, depends on their ability to guide the solver towards refutations associated with compact decision trees. We propose an enhancement of 1UIP that is empirically helpful for real-...
