On the Learnability and Usage of Acyclic Probabilistic Finite Automata
We propose and analyze a distribution learning algorithm for a subclass of Acyclic Probabilistic Finite Automata (APFA). This subclass is characterized by a certain distinguishabi...

Exactly Learning Automata with Small Cover Time
We present algorithms for exactly learning unknown environments that can be described by deterministic nite automata. The learner performs a walk on the target automaton, where at...

List decoding algorithms for certain concatenated codes
We give efficient (polynomial-time) list-decoding algorithms for certain families of errorcorrecting codes obtained by "concatenation". Specifically, we give list-decodi...

Regression NSS: An Alternative to Cross Validation
The Noise Sensitivity Signature (NSS), originally introduced by Grossman and Lapedes (1993), was proposed as an alternative to cross validation for selecting network complexity. I...
