Lower Bounds on Learning Random Structures with Statistical Queries
We show that random DNF formulas, random log-depth decision trees and random deterministic finite acceptors cannot be weakly learned with a polynomial number of statistical queries...

Weakly learning DNF and characterizing statistical query learning using Fourier analysis
We present new results on the well-studied problem of learning DNF expressions. We prove that an algorithm due to Kushilevitz and Mansour [13] can be used to weakly learn DNF form...

Hardness of approximate two-level logic minimization and PAC learning with membership queries
Producing a small DNF expression consistent with given data is a classical problem in computer science that occurs in a number of forms and has numerous applications. We consider ...

Learning DNF from Random Walks
We consider a model of learning Boolean functions from examples generated by a uniform random walk on {0, 1}n . We give a polynomial time algorithm for learning decision trees and...

New Results for Learning Noisy Parities and Halfspaces
We address well-studied problems concerning the learnability of parities and halfspaces in the presence of classification noise. Learning of parities under the uniform distributi...
