Apple Machine Learning Research has published a paper detailing the distinction between location-invariant properties of functions and properties of distributions. The research highlights that while testing these two types of properties can be closely related, their verification processes diverge significantly. The paper introduces doubly-sublinear interactive proofs (IPPs) for several location-invariant function properties, demonstrating that the complexity of verification can be much lower than that of testing. This contrasts with properties of distributions, which have been shown to lack similar doubly-efficient IPPs. AI
