Abstract
We derive general bounds on the complexity of
learning in the Statistical Query model and in the
PAC model with classification noise. We do so by
considering the problem of boosting the accuracy of
weak learning algorithms which fall within the Statis
tical Query model. This new model was introduced
by Kearns [12] to provide a general framework for ef
ficient PAC learning in the presence of classification
