Learning Monotone Decision Trees in Polynomial Time
We give an algorithm that learns any monotone Boolean function f : {-1, 1}n {-1, 1} to any constant accuracy, under the uniform distribution, in time polynomial in n and in the de...

On Learning Bounded-Width Branching Programs
In this paper, we study PAC-leaming algorithms for specialized classes of deterministic finite automata (DFA). Inpartictdar, we study branchingprogrsms, and we investigate the int...

Learning with Queries Corrupted by Classification Noise
Kearns introduced the "statistical query" (SQ) model as a general method for producing learning algorithms which are robust against classification noise. We extend this ...

On Using Extended Statistical Queries to Avoid Membership Queries
The Kushilevitz-Mansour (KM) algorithm is an algorithm that finds all the “large” Fourier coefficients of a Boolean function. It is the main tool for learning decision trees ...

On PAC Learning Using Winnow, Perceptron, and a Perceptron-like Algorithm
In this paper we analyze the PAC learning abilities of several simple iterative algorithms for learning linear threshold functions, obtaining both positive and negative results. W...
