The paper proposes a novel framework for analyzing the key factors affecting Boolean-aware Boolean circuit classification using graph neural networks (GNNs). The authors define a matching-equivalent class of Boolean circuits based on their “Boolean-aware” property, which can be transformed into each other. They then present a GNN-based framework to analyze the factors influencing this classification task. Experimental results verify the proposed analysis and provide direction for improving the problem. This paper contributes to the field of logic synthesis by providing a new perspective on Boolean circuit classification.

Boolean circuits are special types of graphs that can be used in computer science. The problem is that we don’t have a good way to classify these circuits based on their functionality, not just their structure. Researchers tried using logic optimization and matching techniques, but this didn’t work well. In this paper, the authors propose a new way to group Boolean circuits together based on how they behave when you try to transform them into each other. They use something called graph neural networks (GNNs) to analyze what makes these transformations happen. The results show that their approach works and can help us make progress on this important problem.
