  This paper revisits the problem of learning a k-CNF Boolean function from
examples in the context of online learning under the logarithmic loss. In doing
so, we give a Bayesian interpretation to one of Valiant's celebrated PAC
learning algorithms, which we then build upon to derive two efficient, online,
probabilistic, supervised learning algorithms for predicting the output of an
unknown k-CNF Boolean function. We analyze the loss of our methods, and show
that the cumulative log-loss can be upper bounded, ignoring logarithmic
factors, by a polynomial function of the size of each example.
