Abstract: Working in the framework of PAC-learning theory, we present special statistics for accomplishing in polynomial time proper learning of DNF boolean formulas having a fixed number of monomials. Our statistics turn out to be near sufficient for a large family of distribution laws---that we call butterfly distributions. We develop a theory of most powerful learning for analyzing the performance of learning algorithms, with particular reference to trade-offs between power and computational costs.... (Update)
