Table 1. Example of canalizing function.
g 1 | g 2 | g 3 | F(g 1, g 2, g 3) |
1 | 1 | 1 | 0 |
1 | 1 | 0 | 0 |
1 | 0 | 1 | 1 |
1 | 0 | 0 | 1 |
0 | 1 | 1 | 0 |
0 | 1 | 0 | 0 |
0 | 0 | 1 | 1 |
0 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
Example of a Boolean function of three arguments that is canalizing on one of them. Note that F = 0 whenever g 2 = 1, regardless of the values of the other two arguments.
