New algorithm learns constant-depth circuits under locally sampleable graphical models

Researchers have developed a new algorithm for learning constant-depth circuits under graphical models that can be locally sampled. This work extends previous findings by Chandrasekaran, Gaitonde, Moitra, and Vasilyan (arXiv 2026), which were limited to models with strong spatial mixing and polynomial growth. The new method utilizes a novel low-degree approximation of Gibbs distributions, achieved by simulating and truncating Glauber dynamics. This approach enables learning for systems like the hard-core and Ising models on various bounded-degree graphs, even near their sampling thresholds. AI
