We consider algorithms for combining advice from a set of experts. In each trial, the algorithm receives the predictions of the experts and produces its own prediction. A loss func...
This paper studies the complexity of learning classes of expressions in propositional logic from equivalence queries and membership queries. In particular, we focus on bounding th...
