Almost optimal distribution-free junta testing

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

We consider the problem of testing whether an unknown n-variable Boolean function is a k-junta in the distribution-free property testing model, where the distance between functions is measured with respect to an arbitrary and unknown probability distribution over {0, 1}n. Chen, Liu, Servedio, Sheng and Xie [35] showed that the distribution-free k-junta testing can be performed, with one-sided error, by an adaptive algorithm that makes Õ(k2)/ queries. In this paper, we give a simple two-sided error adaptive algorithm that makes Õ(k/) queries.
