Abstract: Recently, a new formal model of learnability was introduced [23]. The model is
applicable to practical learning systems because it requires the learning algorithm to
be feasibly computable, yet at the same time demands only that the algorithm find
an approximation to the unknown rule. We survey recent results in this new area of
theoretical induction, giving both positive (learnability) and negative (non-learnability)
results, as well as outlining useful techniques for proving... (Update)

...this result, for learning over the uniform distribution. Another important restriction of DNF is the class of monotone DNF. Kearns et al. KLPV87] have shown that under the PAC model, learning DNF reduces to learning monotone DNF. That is, if monotone DNF is PAC learnable, then...
.... learning theory (COLT) on the PAClearnability [Valiant, 1984] of boolean expressions, see for instance [Mitchell, 1997; Kearns et al. 1987] One of the results is the following (with a k term DNF being a DNF with at most k queries) k term DNF is not PAC learnable,...
