Threshold Logic Elements Used as a Probability Transformer
C. L. Sheng · Journal of the ACM · 1965
Threshold logic elements, although essentially used as gates in determinis,~ie combinatorial circuits, can be applied ~o switching circuits with disere~,e random inputs ~c~ generate discrete random variables of any probability distribution, i.e. to serve as a discrete ]probability transformer.In this paper some properties of threshold functions related to the realization of a probability trattsformer are studied.The principle of using threshold logic elements for probability transformation, is presented and the techniques for realization are developed.Examples are given for illustration.
