Abstract :
We give an algorithm for learning a more expressive circuit class than the class AC0 considered by Linial et al. (1993) and Kharitonov (1993). The new algorithm learns constant-depth AND/OR/NOT circuits augmented with (a limited number of) majority gates. Our main positive result for these circuits is stated informally
