Abstract

A new algorithm for learning representations in Boolean neural networks, where the inputs and outputs are binary bits, is presented. The algorithm has become feasible because of a newly discovered theorem which states that any non-linearly separable Boolean function can be expressed as a convergent series of linearly separable functions connected by the logical OR (+) and the logical INHIBIT (-) operators. The formation of the series is carried out by many important properties exhibited by the implied minterm structure of a linearly separable function. The learning algorithm produces the representation much faster than the back propagation, and unlike the latter does not encounter the problem of local minima. It also successfully separates a linearly separable function and obtains the perceptron solution in the presence of a spoiler vector, a situation where back propagation is guaranteed to fail.
