Premise Selection for Mathematics by Corpus Analysis and Kernel Methods
Smart premise selection is essential when using automated reasoning as a tool
for large-theory formal proof development. A good method for premise selection
in complex mathematical libraries is the application of machine learning to
large corpora of proofs. This work develops learning-based premise selection in
two ways. First, a newly available minimal dependency analysis of existing
high-level formal mathematical proofs is used to build a large knowledge base
of proof dependencies, providing precise data for ATP-based re-verification and
for training premise selection algorithms. Second, a new machine learning
algorithm for premise selection based on kernel methods is proposed and
implemented. To evaluate the impact of both techniques, a benchmark consisting
of 2078 large-theory mathematical problems is constructed,extending the older
MPTP Challenge benchmark. The combined effect of the techniques results in a
50% improvement on the benchmark over the Vampire/SInE state-of-the-art system
for automated reasoning in large theories.Comment: 26 page
Order-Revealing Encryption and the Hardness of Private Learning
An order-revealing encryption scheme gives a public procedure by which two
ciphertexts can be compared to reveal the ordering of their underlying
plaintexts. We show how to use order-revealing encryption to separate
computationally efficient PAC learning from efficient -differentially private PAC learning. That is, we construct a concept
class that is efficiently PAC learnable, but for which every efficient learner
fails to be differentially private. This answers a question of Kasiviswanathan
et al. (FOCS '08, SIAM J. Comput. '11).
To prove our result, we give a generic transformation from an order-revealing
encryption scheme into one with strongly correct comparison, which enables the
consistent comparison of ciphertexts that are not obtained as the valid
encryption of any message. We believe this construction may be of independent
interest.Comment: 28 page
