Title:
A PRG for Gaussian Polynomial Threshold Functions

Speaker:
Daniel Kane

Abstract:
We define a polynomial threshold function to be a function of the form f(x) = sgn(p(x)) for p a polynomial. We discuss some recent techniques for dealing with polynomial threshold functions, particular when evaluated on random Gaussians. We show how to use these ideas to produce a pseudo random generator for degree-d polynomial threshold functions of Gaussians with seed length poly(2^d,log(n),epsilon^{-1}) .
