We consider the problem of adaptively PAC-learning a probability distribution P\mathcal{P}'s mode by querying an oracle for information about a sequence of i.i.d. samples X1,X2,X_1, X_2, \ldots generated from P\mathcal{P}. We consider two different query models: (a) each query is an index ii for which the oracle reveals…

In query learning, the goal is to identify an unknown object while minimizing the number of "yes" or "no" questions (queries) posed about that object. A well-studied algorithm for query learning is known as generalized binary search (GBS). We show that GBS is a greedy algorithm to optimize the expected number of querie…
