Equivalence
R Structural equivalence1: Two faults f1 and f2 are said to be R structurally equivalent if they produce the same reduced circuit graph [netlist] when faulty values are implied and constant edges [signals] are removed.
Functional equivalence1: Two faults f1 and f2 are said to be functionally equivalent if they modify the Boolean function of the circuit in the same way, i.e., they yield the same output functions.

Equivalence Definitions For multiple output circuits,
Diagnostic Equivalence - Two faults of a Boolean circuit are called diagnostically equivalent if and only if the functions of the two faulty circuits are identical at each output.
Detection Equivalence - Two faults are called detection equivalent if and only if all tests that detect one fault also detect the other fault, not necessarily at the same output.

The faults c0 and Y0 are detection equivalent faults, but not diagnostic equivalent.
For the full adder, diagnostic equivalence collapsed set = 26 (0.43), detection equivalence collapsed set = 23 (0.38)
{Structural equiv. = 38, Structural dom. = 30, Functional equiv.= 26, Functional dom.= 12}

Dominance Definitions Fault Dominance5 - A fault fi is said to dominate
fault fj if (a) the set of all vectors that detects fault fj is a subset of all vectors that detects fault fi and (b) each vector that detects fj implies identical values at the corresponding outputs of faulty versions of the circuit.
Conventionally dominance is defined as: A fault fi is said to dominate fault fj if the faults are
equivalent with respect to test set of fault fj.
If all tests of fault fj detect another fault fi, then fi is said to dominate fj.

Dominance Definitions contd.
For multiple output circuits, the two possible interpretations of dominance:
Diagnostic dominance - If all tests of a fault f1 detect another fault f2 on the exact same outputs where f1 was detected, then f2 is said to diagnostically dominate f1.
Detection dominance - If all tests of a fault f1 detect another fault f2, irrespective of the output where f1 was detected, then f2 is said to detection dominate f1
.
Diagnostic dominance implies detection dominance.For the full adder, diagnostic dominance collapsed set = 12 (0.2)
detection dominance collapsed set = 6 (0.1){Structural equiv. = 38, Structural dom. = 30, Diagnostic equiv.= 26, Detection equiv.= 23}

Conclusions Diagnostic and detection collapsing should be used
only with smaller circuits. Collapse ratios using detection dominance
collapsing is about 10-20%. Hierarchical fault collapsing:
Better (lower) collapse ratios due to functional collapsed library
Order of magnitude reduction in collapse time.
Smaller fault sets: Fewer test vectors Reduced fault simulation effort Easier fault diagnosis.
Use caution when using dominance collapsing!!
