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...

Efficient multi-step query processing for EMD-based similarity
Abstract. Similarity search in large multimedia databases requires efficient query processing based on suitable similarity models. Similarity models consist of a feature extraction...

Lower Bounds on the Sample Complexity of Exploration in the Multi-armed Bandit Problem
We consider the Multi-armed bandit problem under the PAC (“probably approximately correct”) model. It was shown by Even-Dar et al. [5] that given n arms, it suffices to play th...

Learning Acyclic Probabilistic Circuits Using Test Paths
We define a model of learning probabilistic acyclic circuits using value injection queries, in which an arbitrary subset of wires is set to fixed values, and the value on the sing...

Efficient discrete-time simulations of continuous-time quantum query algorithms
The continuous-time query model is a variant of the discrete query model in which queries can be interleaved with known operations (called "driving operations") continuo...
