Pseudorandom Bits for Constant Depth Circuits with Few Arbitrary Symmetric Gates
We exhibit an explicitly computable ‘pseudorandom’ generator stretching l bits into m(l) = lΩ(log l) bits that look random to constant-depth circuits of size m(l) with log m...

Learning Bounds for Domain Adaptation
Empirical risk minimization offers well-known learning guarantees when training and test data come from the same domain. In the real world, though, we often wish to adapt a classi...

Parallel randomized load balancing
It is well known that after placing n balls independently and uniformly at random into n bins, the fullest bin holds (logn=log logn) balls with high probability. Recently, Azar et...

Boosting and Hard-Core Sets
This paper connects two fundamental ideas from theoretical computer science: hard-core set construction, a type of hardness amplification from computational complexity, and boosti...

On random sampling auctions for digital goods
In the context of auctions for digital goods, an interesting Random Sampling Optimal Price auction (RSOP) has been proposed by Goldberg, Hartline and Wright; this leads to a truth...
