Title
On Distribution-Specific Learning with Membership Queries versus Pseudorandom Generation
Abstract
We consider a weak version of pseudorandom function generators and show that their existence is equivalent to the non-learnability of Boolean circuits in Valiant's pac-learning model with membership queries on the uniform distribution. Furthermore, we show that this equivalence holds still for the case of non-adaptive membership queries and for any (non-trivial) p-samplable distribution.
