Time-Bounded Kolmogorov Complexity and Solovay Functions
Abstract. A Solovay function is a computable upper bound g for prefixfree Kolmogorov complexity K that is nontrivial in the sense that g agrees with K, up to some additive constan...

Transfer Learning using Kolmogorov Complexity: Basic Theory and Empirical Evaluations
In transfer learning we aim to solve new problems using fewer examples using information gained from solving related problems. Transfer learning has been successful in practice, a...

Lower Bounds for Randomized and Quantum Query Complexity Using Kolmogorov Arguments
We prove a very general lower bound technique for quantum and randomized query complexity, that is easy to prove as well as to apply. To achieve this, we introduce the use of Kolm...

Comparison of Cluster Algorithms for the Analysis of Text Data Using Kolmogorov Complexity
In this paper we present a comparison of multiple cluster algorithms and their suitability for clustering text data. The clustering is based on similarities only, employing the Kol...

Resolution Proofs, Exponential Bounds, and Kolmogorov Complexity
We prove an exponential lower bound for the length of any resolution proof for the same set of clauses as the one used by Urquhart [13]. Our contribution is a significant simpli...
