LEARNING BINARY RELATIONS 257<br />

Solving for tt gives the bound given in Equation (1).<br />

An interesting modification of our first algorithm would be to consider all rows in<br />

the same group as row r and then predict with the number of l's already known in<br />

column j divided by the total number of known entries in column j (i.e. a prediction of<br />

N1/(No + N1) <strong>using</strong> the notation of Figure 4). We did not use this rule because it is<br />

harder obtain a lower bound on the final weight in the system.<br />

Finally, by applying the results of Cesa-Bianchi, Freund, Helmbold, Haussler, Schapire,<br />

and Warmuth (1993) we can tune/3 as a function of an upper bound c~ on the noise.<br />
