Abstract: By walsh transform, autocorrelation function, decomposition, derivation and modification of truth table, some new invariants are obtained. Based on invariant theory, we get two results: first a general algorithm which can be used to judge if two boolean functions are affinely equivalent and to obtain the affine equivalence relationship if they are equivalent. For example, all 8-variable homogenous bent functions of degree 3 are classified into 2 classes; second, the classification of the Reed-Muller code $R(4,6)/R(1,6),R(3,7)/R(1,7),$ which can be used to almost enumeration of 8-variable bent functions.
