We first consider the problem of learning $k$-parities in the on-line mistake-bound model: given a hidden vector $x \in \{0,1\}^n$ with $|x|=k$ and a sequence of "questions" $a_1, a_2, ...\in \{0,1\}^n$, where the algorithm must reply to…

Learning a hidden parity function from noisy data, known as learning parity with noise (LPN), is an example of intelligent behavior that aims to generalize a concept based on noisy examples. The solution to LPN immediately leads to decoding…

In this work, we show, for the well-studied problem of learning parity under noise, where a learner tries to learn $x=(x_1,\ldots,x_n) \in \{0,1\}^n$ from a stream of random linear equations over $\mathrm{F}_2$ that are correct with…
