用逻辑门模拟图像,实现高速可解释的神经网络
Gate-level boolean evolutionary geometric attention neural networks
- 像素作为布尔变量,在几何网格上通过逻辑门与扩散机制更新
- 引入异或注意力与布尔位置编码,实现逻辑自注意力机制
- 全布尔运算设计,适合硬件加速,兼具可解释性与通用表达能力
本文提出一种基于逻辑门的布尔进化几何注意力神经网络,将图像建模为由逻辑门控制的布尔场。每个像素为0或1的布尔变量,位于二维几何流形(如离散环面格点)上,定义像素间邻接关系与信息传播路径。网络通过布尔反应-扩散机制更新图像状态:像素接收邻域布尔扩散(扩散过程),并通过可训练的门级逻辑核进行局部逻辑更新(反应过程),构成反应-扩散逻辑网络。引入基于异或的布尔自注意力机制,利用XNOR型查询-键(Q-K)注意力调控邻域扩散路径,实现逻辑注意力。提出布尔旋向位置编码(RoPE),通过奇偶位翻转编码相对距离,模拟布尔“相位”偏移。整体结构类似Transformer,但完全在布尔域运行。可训练参数包括Q-K模式比特和门级核配置。因输出为离散值,采用连续松弛方法(如sigmoid近似或软逻辑算子)保证可微训练。理论分析表明,该网络具备通用表达性、可解释性与硬件高效性,可重现卷积与注意力机制。应用涵盖高速图像处理、可解释人工智能及数字硬件加速,具有广阔研究前景。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
This paper presents a gate-level Boolean evolutionary geometric attention neural network that models images as Boolean fields governed by logic gates. Each pixel is a Boolean variable (0 or 1) embedded on a two-dimensional geometric manifold (for example, a discrete toroidal lattice), which defines adjacency and information propagation among pixels. The network updates image states through a Boolean reaction-diffusion mechanism: pixels receive Boolean diffusion from neighboring pixels (diffusion process) and perform local logic updates via trainable gate-level logic kernels (reaction process), forming a reaction-diffusion logic network. A Boolean self-attention mechanism is introduced, using XNOR-based Boolean Query-Key (Q-K) attention to modulate neighborhood diffusion pathways and realize logic attention. We also propose Boolean Rotary Position Embedding (RoPE), which encodes relative distances by parity-bit flipping to simulate Boolean ``phase'' offsets. The overall structure resembles a Transformer but operates entirely in the Boolean domain. Trainable parameters include Q-K pattern bits and gate-level kernel configurations. Because outputs are discrete, continuous relaxation methods (such as sigmoid approximation or soft-logic operators) ensure differentiable training. Theoretical analysis shows that the network achieves universal expressivity, interpretability, and hardware efficiency, capable of reproducing convolutional and attention mechanisms. Applications include high-speed image processing, interpretable artificial intelligence, and digital hardware acceleration, offering promising future research directions.
