Learning and Smoothed Analysis
We give a new model of learning motivated by smoothed analysis (Spielman and Teng, 2001). In this model, we analyze two new algorithms, for PAC-learning DNFs and agnostically learn...

The algebraic degree of semidefinite programming
Given a generic semidefinite program, specified by matrices with rational entries, each coordinate of its optimal solution is an algebraic number. We study the degree of the minima...

Generalized Roof Duality for Pseudo-Boolean Optimization
The number of applications in computer vision that model higher-order interactions has exploded over the last few years. The standard technique for solving such problems is to red...

The Chow Parameters Problem
Abstract. In the 2nd Annual FOCS (1961), Chao-Kong Chow proved that every Boolean threshold function is uniquely determined by its degree-0 and degree-1 Fourier coefficients. These...

Exact combinational logic synthesis and non-standard circuit design
Using a new exact synthesizer that automatically induces minimal universal boolean function libraries, we introduce two indicators for comparing their expressiveness: the first ba...
