Abstract: . Within the framework of pac-learning, we explore the learnability of concepts from samples using the paradigm of sample compression schemes. A sample compression scheme of size k for a concept class C ` 2 X consists of a compression function and a reconstruction function. The compression function receives a finite sample set consistent with some concept in C and chooses a subset of k examples as the compression set. The reconstruction function forms a hypothesis on X from a compression set... (Update)

...at most k = O(1) examples and O(log log n) additional bits. The notion of space bounded learning appears, for example, in [AFHM93, Ame94, Ame95, Flo89, FW95]. In addition the set of hypotheses used by A must have a VC dimension of O(1) this implies in particular that VC...
