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...

Active Sampling for Multiple Output Identification
We study functions with multiple output values, and use active sampling to identify an example for each of the possible output values. Our results for this setting include: (1) Eff...

Online Tracking of Linear Subspaces
We address the problem of online de-noising a stream of input points. We assume that the clean data is embedded in a linear subspace. We present two online algorithms for tracking ...

Stable Transductive Learning
Abstract. We develop a new error bound for transductive learning algorithms. The slack term in the new bound is a function of a relaxed notion of transductive stability, which meas...

Memory-Limited U-Shaped Learning
U-shaped learning is a learning behaviour in which the learner first learns a given target behaviour, then unlearns it and finally relearns it. Such a behaviour, observed by psych...

Teaching Randomized Learners
Abstract. The present paper introduces a new model for teaching randomized learners. Our new model, though based on the classical teaching dimension model, allows to study the infl...
