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...

Given a set D = {d1, d2, ..., dD} of D strings of total length n, our task is to report the "most relevant" strings for a given query pattern P. This involves somewhat mo...
Coin flipping is a fundamental cryptographic primitive that enables two distrustful and far apart parties to create a uniformly random bit [Blu81]. Quantum information allows for ...
Abstract— Thorup and Zwick, in their seminal work, introduced the approximate distance oracle, which is a data structure that answers distance queries in a graph. For any integer...
Abstract— We consider the problem of estimating cascaded aggregates over a matrix presented as a sequence of updates in a data stream. A cascaded aggregate P ◦Q is defined by ...
— Working in Winfree’s abstract tile assembly model, we show that a constant-size tile assembly system can be programmed through relative tile concentrations to build an n × n...
