The paper discusses FEP as a related pre-FI technique.
Dynamic Fault Collapsing (DFC) ← implements 90% 2e
DFC is described as a variant of FEP that enables fault equivalence pruning during simulation.
Fault Effect Equivalence Check (FEEC) ← compares with 85% 1e
FEEC is described in contrast to FEP; FEEC is not limited by DUT knowledge requirements.
