Uniform-Distribution Attribute Noise Learnability
We study the problem of PAC-learning Boolean functions with random attribute noise under the uniform distribution. We define a noisy distance measure for function classes and sho...

Distribution-Free Testing Lower Bounds for Basic Boolean Functions
: In the distribution-free property testing model, the distance between functions is measured with respect to an arbitrary and unknown probability distribution D over the input dom...

Separating Distribution-Free and Mistake-Bound Learning Models over the Boolean Domain
Two of the most commonly used models in computational learning theory are the distribution-free model in which examples are chosen from a fixed but arbitrary distribution, and the ...

On Using Extended Statistical Queries to Avoid Membership Queries
The Kushilevitz-Mansour (KM) algorithm is an algorithm that finds all the “large” Fourier coefficients of a Boolean function. It is the main tool for learning decision trees ...

When Does Greedy Learning of Relevant Features Succeed? --- A Fourier-based Characterization ---
Detecting the relevant attributes of an unknown target concept is an important and well studied problem in algorithmic learning. Simple greedy strategies have been proposed that s...
