Distributional Similarity vs. PU Learning for Entity Set Expansion
Distributional similarity is a classic technique for entity set expansion, where the system is given a set of seed entities of a particular class, and is asked to expand the set u...

Baum's Algorithm Learns Intersections of Halfspaces with Respect to Log-Concave Distributions
In 1990, E. Baum gave an elegant polynomial-time algorithm for learning the intersection of two origin-centered halfspaces with respect to any symmetric distribution (i.e., any D s...

On Learning Mixtures of Heavy-Tailed Distributions
We consider the problem of learning mixtures of arbitrary symmetric distributions. We formulate sufficient separation conditions and present a learning algorithm with provable gua...
