    Journal of Computer and System Sciences, 2018 (accepted). Preliminary version in Proceedings of ICALP 2016. [conference] [full]
    We show super-linear bounds for the problem of computing the Inner-Product function on AC0 circuits with parity gates just above the input level. These are the current state-of-the-art bounds on the problem.
    Statistical Algorithms and a Lower Bound for Planted Clique Vitaly Feldman, Elena Grigorescu, Lev Reyzin, Santosh Vempala, Ying Xiao.
    J. ACM 2017. Preliminary version in Proceedings of STOC 2013. [conference] [full]
    We introduce a framework for proving lower bounds on computational problems over distributions, based on defining a restricted class of algorithms called statistical algorithms. For well-known problems over distributions, we give lower bounds on the complexity of any statistical algorithm. These include a nearly optimal lower bound for detecting planted bipartite clique distributions (or planted dense subgraph distributions) when the planted clique has small size.
    On Noise Tolerant Learning of Sparse Parities and Related Problems Elena Grigorescu, Lev Reyzin, Santosh Vempala.
    Proceedings of the International Conference on Algorithmic Learning Theory (ALT), 2011. [pdf]
    We propose an improved algorithm for learning sparse parities over arbitrary distributions.
