Tracking the Best Disjunction
Abstract. Littlestone developed a simple deterministic on-line learning algorithm for learning k-literal disjunctions. This algorithm (called Winnow) keeps one weight for each of t...

Learning and Smoothed Analysis
We give a new model of learning motivated by smoothed analysis (Spielman and Teng, 2001). In this model, we analyze two new algorithms, for PAC-learning DNFs and agnostically learn...

Hard Metrics from Cayley Graphs of Abelian Groups
: Hard metrics are the class of extremal metrics with respect to embedding into Euclidean spaces: they incur Ω(logn) multiplicative distortion, which is as large as it can possib...

Disjoint Paths in Densely Embedded Graphs
We consider the following maximum disjoint paths problem (mdpp). We are given a large network, and pairs of nodes that wish to communicate over paths through the network — the g...
