  • Abstract
    The Walsh spectrum for a Boolean function has found many uses in VLSI CAD. A graph-based approach to calculating this spectrum using Cayley graphs is extended here to include alternate encoding, direct computation of the spectrum for the inverse of a function and a "fast" method of calculation for the adjacency matrix of a graph
