Noise-tolerant learning, the parity problem, and the statistical query model
Abstract
We describe a slightly subexponential time algorithm for learning parity functions in the presence of random classification noise, a problem closely related to several cryptographic and coding problems. Our algorithm runs in polynomial time for the case of parity functions that depend on only the first O (log n log log n ) bits of input, which provides the first known instance of an efficient noise-tolerant algorithm for a concept class that is not learnable in the Statistical Query model of Kearns [1998]. Thus, we demonstrate that the set of problems learnable in the statistical query model is a strict subset of those problems learnable in the presence of noise in the PAC model.In coding-theory terms, what we give is a poly( n )-time algorithm for decoding linear k × n codes in the presence of random noise for the case of k = c log n log log n for some c > 0. (The case of k = O (log n ) is trivial since one can just individually check each of the 2 k possible messages and choose the one that yields the closest codeword.)A natural extension of the statistical query model is to allow queries about statistical properties that involve t -tuples of examples, as opposed to just single examples. The second result of this article is to show that any class of functions learnable (strongly or weakly) with t -wise queries for t = O (log n ) is also weakly learnable with standard unary queries. Hence, this natural extension to the statistical query model does not increase the set of wea…

“Again, this is not a general-purpose coding agent with the ability to e.g.work on arbitrary software engineering tasks, and as such, it self-improves and evaluates and only on algorithmic tasks such as learning parity with noise (Blum et al., 2003), String Grid Distance, and 3-SAT.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
