Learning Monotone Decision Trees in Polynomial Time
We give an algorithm that learns any monotone Boolean function f : {-1, 1}n {-1, 1} to any constant accuracy, under the uniform distribution, in time polynomial in n and in the de...

PAC Learning from Positive Statistical Queries
Learning from positive examples occurs very frequently in natural learning. The PAC learning model of Valiant takes many features of natural learning into account, but in most case...

On PAC Learning Using Winnow, Perceptron, and a Perceptron-like Algorithm
In this paper we analyze the PAC learning abilities of several simple iterative algorithms for learning linear threshold functions, obtaining both positive and negative results. W...
