Near-Optimal Reinforcement Learning in Polynomial Time
We present new algorithms for reinforcement learning, and prove that they have polynomial bounds on the resources required to achieve near-optimal return in general Markov decisio...

Weakly learning DNF and characterizing statistical query learning using Fourier analysis
We present new results on the well-studied problem of learning DNF expressions. We prove that an algorithm due to Kushilevitz and Mansour [13] can be used to weakly learn DNF form...

Learning DNF from Random Walks
We consider a model of learning Boolean functions from examples generated by a uniform random walk on {0, 1}n . We give a polynomial time algorithm for learning decision trees and...

Efficient Learning of Ordered and Unordered Tree Patterns with Contractible Variables
Due to the rapid growth of tree structured data such as Web documents, efficient learning from tree structured data becomes more and more important. In order to represent structura...

Lower Bounds and Hardness Amplification for Learning Shallow Monotone Formulas
Much work has been done on learning various classes of "simple" monotone functions under the uniform distribution. In this paper we give the first unconditional lower bo...
