Book ChapterDOI
Exact Learning when Irrelevant Variables Abound
TL;DR: The proofs of the negative results show that general decision trees and related representations are not learnable in polynomial time using equivalence queries alone, confirming a folklore theorem.
Journal ArticleDOI
Exact learning when irrelevant variables abound
TL;DR: It is shown thattruth-table minimization of decision trees can be done in polynomial time, complementing the well-known result of Masek that truth-table minimalization of DNF formulas is NP-hard.
Journal ArticleDOI
Monotone term decision lists
TL;DR: A new representation class of Boolean functions, monotone term decision lists, is introduced which combines compact representation size with tractability of essential operations and is an attractive alternative to traditional universal representation classes such as DNF formulas or decision trees.
Book ChapterDOI
Learning Monotone Term Decision Lists
TL;DR: It is shown that, for any constant k≥0, k-term monotone decision lists are exactly and properly learnable with nO(k) membership queries in O(nk3) time.
Journal ArticleDOI
Learning nearly monotone k -term DNF
TL;DR: This note studies the learnability of the class of k-term DNF with a bounded number of negations per term and using either membership queries only or equivalence queries only, and proves that a polynomial number of equivalences queries will not suffice.
