Lower Bounds and Hardness Amplification for Learning Shallow Monotone Formulas
Much work has been done on learning various classes of "simple" monotone functions under the uniform distribution. In this paper we give the first unconditional lower bo...

A posteriori error estimation for variational problems with uniformly convex functionals
The objective of this paper is to introduce a general scheme for deriving a posteriori error estimates by using duality theory of the calculus of variations. We consider variationa...

Unconditional lower bounds for learning intersections of halfspaces
We prove new lower bounds for learning intersections of halfspaces, one of the most important concept classes in computational learning theory. Our main result is that any statist...

Efficient Learning Algorithms Yield Circuit Lower Bounds
We describe a new approach for understanding the difficulty of designing efficient learning algorithms. We prove that the existence of an efficient learning algorithm for a circui...

Learning Bounds for Domain Adaptation
Empirical risk minimization offers well-known learning guarantees when training and test data come from the same domain. In the real world, though, we often wish to adapt a classi...
