  • Abstract
    We develop and analyze a new family of pseudorandom generators for polynomial threshold functions with respect to the Gaussian distribution. In particular, for any fixed degree we develop a generator whose seed length is subpolynomial in the error parameter, ε. We get particularly nice results for degree 1 and degree 2 threshold functions, in which cases our seed length is O(log(n) + log3/2(1/ε)) and exp(O(log2/3(1/ε))), respectively.
