Efficient Algorithms for Reliable Machine LearningThe Role of TCS in Modern Machine Learning2026-05-26
Introduces a concrete proof system called testable learning where an algorithm either returns a classifier with error at most opt + ε or abstains, and must…

Panel on the future of scientific research and educationUnknown Futures of Generalization 20242024-12-02
A live panel debates which research skills survive widespread LLM use and gives concrete examples: a student-run “Resurrected Scientists” ChatGPT experiment…
Panel on
A New Paradigm for Learning with Distribution ShiftUnknown Futures of Generalization 20242024-12-02
A new model called TDS learning requires an efficient test on training data that may reject or else outputs a classifier with provable low test error even…

Tight Hardness Results for Training Depth-2 ReLU NetworksITCS 20212021-01-06
Proves concrete limits and matching algorithms for depth-2 ReLU training: shows single-ReLU NP-hard (agnostic) and NP-hardness for any K≥2 in the realizable…

Analytic Methods for Supervised Learning IReal Analysis Boot Camp 20132013-09-09
A concrete claim: decision trees become learnable by finding the largest Fourier coefficients and outputting the sign of a sparse polynomial. The algorithm…

Analytic Methods for Supervised Learning IIReal Analysis Boot Camp 20132013-09-09
Shows that a decision tree with t leaves has L1(f) ≤ t for t‑leaf tree and uses that to get sparse approximations via zeroing small coefficients; states…

Analytic Methods for Supervised Learning IIIReal Analysis Boot Camp 20132013-09-09
Shows an algorithmic pipeline: a projected gradient descent routine approximately solves the polynomial L1 minimization in time poly(n,1/ε,t), which gives an…
