Turán, Malicious omissions and errors in answering to membership queries, Machine Learning 28 (2-3) (1997) 211-255]: Learning with equivalence and limited membership queries and learning with equivalence ...
This closes the open problems in [D. Angluin, M. Krikis, R.H. Sloan, G. Turán, Malicious omissions and errors in answering to membership queries, Machine Learning 28 (2-3) (1997) 211-255]. ...
In this model the learning algorithm learns exactly a target function using equivalence and membership queries with at most some number of errors or omissions in answers to the membership queries. ...

Randomly fallible teachers: Learning monotone DNF with an incomplete membership oracle
1994
Machine Learning
We introduce a new fault-tolerant model of algorithmic learning using an equivalence oracle and an incomplete membership oracle, in which the answers to a random subset of the learner's membership queries ...
We demonstrate that, with high probability, it is still possible to learn monotone DNF formulas in polynomial time, provided that the fraction of missing answers is bounded by some constant less than one ...
A preliminary version of this paper appeared in the proceedings of the 1991 Workshop on Computational Learning Theory (Angluin and Slonim, 1991) . ...

Learning the Language of Software Errors
2020
The Journal of Artificial Intelligence Research
We propose to use algorithms for learning deterministic finite automata (DFA), such as Angluin's L* algorithm, for learning a DFA that describes the possible scenarios under which a given program error ...
We also present lazy learning, which is a method for reducing the number of membership queries while using L*, and demonstrate its effectiveness on standard benchmarks. ...

Learning the Language of Error
[chapter]
2015
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
We propose to harness Angluin's L * algorithm for learning a deterministic finite automaton that describes the possible scenarios under which a given program error occurs. ...
This can be used, for example, for visually comparing different versions of a program, by presenting an automaton for the behaviour in the symmetric difference between them, or for assisting in merging ...
We bypass a CBMC call and answer 'false' to a membership query if one of the following holds: -The query does not end with a call to assert, -The query contains more than one call to assert, w is incompatible ...

A general dimension for query learning
2007
Journal of computer and system sciences (Print)
Further, in the approximate learning setting, we use the general dimension to characterize the query complexity in the statistical query as well as the learning by distances model. ...
We introduce a combinatorial dimension that characterizes the number of queries needed to exactly (or approximately) learn concept classes in various models. ...
Shai Ben-David discussed with one of the authors the learning by distance model and its relationship with the statistical query model. Also, we thank the referees for their useful comments. ...

How Many Query Superpositions Are Needed to Learn?
[chapter]
2006
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
This paper introduces a framework for quantum exact learning via queries, the so-called quantum protocol. It is shown that usual protocols in the classical learning setting have quantum counterparts. ...
Given a quantum protocol and a target concept class, the general halving dimension provides lower and upper bounds on the number of queries that a quantum algorithm needs to learn. ...

Learning First-Order Definite Theories via Object-Based Queries
[chapter]
2011
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
These results show, in theory, the potential for incorporating object-based queries into first-order learning algorithms in order to reduce human teaching effort. ...
Prior work has shown that first order Horn theories can be learned using a polynomial number of membership and equivalence queries [6] . ...

Queries and concept learning
1988
Machine Learning
We consider the problem of using queries to learn an unknown concept. ...
Several types of queries are described and studied: membership, equivalence, subset, superset, disjointness, and exhaustiveness queries. ...
This paper is a revision of an earlier report (Angluin, 1986 ), but is not identical to it. ...

Active Learning with Generalized Queries
2009
2009 Ninth IEEE International Conference on Data Mining
In this paper, we propose a novel active learning algorithm that asks generalized queries. ...
A more natural way is to ask "generalized queries" with don't-care attributes, such as "are people over 50 with knee pain likely to have osteoarthritis?" ...
ACKNOWLEDGMENT The authors acknowledge the valuable assistance of other members of the Data Mining and E-Business Lab of The University of Western Ontario in this research. ...

Users receive real-time feedback in the form of updated answers and non-answers. ...
We identify two impediments to this form of interactive trial-and-error query specification in SQL: (i) changing quantifiers often requires global syntactical query restructuring, and (ii) the absence ...
Enabling users to label offending tuples in answers with 'want out' and actual answers misplaced in non-answers with 'want in' and in turn correcting the query for the user reduces the gulf of execution ...

pre-print
Our learning procedure is therefore based on the framework of probably approximately correct (PAC) learning, which uses sampling instead and provides correctness guarantees expressed using the terms error ...
Exact learning algorithms require checking equivalence between the model and the program, which is a difficult problem, in general undecidable. ...
As with other online learning-based techniques, we need to devise a mechanical teacher that answers queries from the learning algorithm. ...

Learning orthogonal F-Horn formulas

Recently, it was pointed out that the problem of PAC-learning for these classes with membership queries can be reduced to that of learning for the class of k-quasi Horn formulas with membership and equivalence ...
In the PAC-learning, or the query learning model, it has been an important open problem to decide whether the class of DNF and CNF formulas is learnable. ...
