....function is unate has been given by [ Paull and McCluskey, Jr. 1960 ] For non degenerate threshold functions they have also established a relationship between the property of being positive, resp. negative, in x i and the sign of weight w i . We quote the result, which can also be found in [ McNaughton, 1961, Theorem 3.2 ] without proof. Lemma 2 [ Paull and McCluskey, Jr. 1960, Theorem 1 ] Every Boolean threshold function is unate. Let f : f0; 1g f0; 1g be non degenerate and represented by (w 1 ; wn 1 ) Then f is positive (negative) in x i iff w i 0 (w i 0) Unateness implies ....

....= 1 ) f(a x 0 ) 1. The function f is unate in x if it is either monotone or anti monotone in x. A Boolean function is monotone if it is monotone in all its input variables. It is unate if it is unate in all its input variables. Unate functions have been studied extensively in switching theory [6, 7]. More recently, they have been exploited in the development of algorithms in computational learning theory [1, 3] The class of monotone Boolean functions has a simple characterization in terms of forbidden projections. The class consists of exactly those functions that do not have any ....
