Hardness of Learning Halfspaces with Noise
Learning an unknown halfspace (also called a perceptron) from labeled examples is one of the classic problems in machine learning. In the noise-free case, when a halfspace consist...

Proofs of Retrievability via Hardness Amplification
Proofs of Retrievability (PoR), introduced by Juels and Kaliski [JK07], allow the client to store a file F on an untrusted server, and later run an efficient audit protocol in whi...

Agnostic Learning of Monomials by Halfspaces Is Hard
— We prove the following strong hardness result for learning: Given a distribution on labeled examples from the hypercube such that there exists a monomial (or conjunction) consi...
