We study the complexity of building pseudorandom generators (PRGs) with logarithmic seed length from hard functions. We show that, starting from a function f : {0, 1}l → {0, 1} ...
RankBoost is a recently proposed algorithm for learning ranking functions. It is simple to implement and has strong justifications from computational learning theory. We describe...

The empirical curve bounding problem is de ned as follows. Suppose data vectors X Y are presented such that E(Y i]) = f(X i]) where f(x) is an unknown function. The problem is to a...
Abstract. The complexity of interpolation attacks on block ciphers depends on the degree of the polynomial approximation and or on the number of terms in the polynomial approximati...
A low-degree test is a collection of simple, local rules for checking the proximity of an arbitrary function to a lowdegree polynomial. Each rule depends on the function’s value...
