We consider the problem of PAC-learning distributions over strings, represented by probabilistic deterministic finite automata (PDFAs). PDFAs are a probabilistic model for the gen...
Efficient learnability using the state merging algorithm is known for a subclass of probabilistic automata termed µ-distinguishable. In this paper, we prove that state merging alg...

Abstract. We describe and analyze an algorithm for predicting a sequence of n-dimensional binary vectors based on a set of experts making vector predictions in [0, 1]n . We measure...

While there has been a significant amount of theoretical and empirical research on the multiple-instance learning model, most of this research is for concept learning. However, f...
This paper shows how universal learning can be achieved with expert advice. To this aim, we specify an experts algorithm with the following characteristics: (a) it uses only feedba...
