Hardness of approximate two-level logic minimization and PAC learning with membership queries
Producing a small DNF expression consistent with given data is a classical problem in computer science that occurs in a number of forms and has numerous applications. We consider ...

Lower Bounds on Learning Random Structures with Statistical Queries
We show that random DNF formulas, random log-depth decision trees and random deterministic finite acceptors cannot be weakly learned with a polynomial number of statistical queries...

Hardness of Minimizing and Learning DNF Expressions
We study the problem of finding the minimum size DNF formula for a function f : {0, 1}d → {0, 1} given its truth table. We show that unless NP ⊆ DTIME(npoly(log n) ), there i...

Approximation by DNF: Examples and Counterexamples
Say that f : {0, 1}n → {0, 1} -approximates g : {0, 1}n → {0, 1} if the functions disagree on at most an fraction of points. This paper contains two results about approximatio...
