Re: Special AND-gate



Late at night, by candle light, Bernd Schneider
<berndschneider90@xxxxxxxxx> penned this immortal opus:

Hi,

I am looking for a way to design a boolean AND-gate (with possibly many
inputs) that consists of several standard AND, XOR, NOT, randomness gates
and has the following properties:
1. On input a,b it output a AND b
2. The encoding to present a AND b has the same probability as NOT(a AND b)

Note that the second property is for instance not satisfied for the
standard binary encodiding because the output 1 has only probability 1/4
where 0 has 3/4. What I would like to have is that both outputs have the
same probability.

The only way I can think of to solve this problem is to use some kind of
dynamic encoding, i.e. sometimes the 1 is used to represent a 0 and
sometimes a 0 is used to represent the 1.

Regards,
Bernd
