Learning Threshold Functions with Small Weights Using Membership Queries
We study the learnability of Threshold functions with bounded weights using membership queries only. We show that the class Ct of Threshold functions with positive integer weights...

Drifting Games
We consider the problem of learning to predict as well as the best in a group of experts making continuous predictions. We assume the learning algorithm has prior knowledge of the ...

An Adaptive Version of the Boost by Majority Algorithm
We propose a new boosting algorithm. This boosting algorithm is an adaptive version of the boost by majority algorithm and combines bounded goals of the boost by majority algorith...

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...

Multiclass Learning, Boosting, and Error-Correcting Codes
We focus on methods to solve multiclass learning problems by using only simple and efficient binary learners. We investigate the approach of Dietterich and Bakiri [2] based on er...
