Learning polynomials with queries: the highly noisy case

This paper presents an algorithm for reconstructing all n-variant polynomials of degree d, over a finite field F, that agree with a given function on a given (small) fraction of the domain. Given oracle access to the function, the algorithm operates in time polynomailly related to n and the agreement parameter and exponential in d, provided that the agreement parameter is above some bound that refers to the ratio of the degree and the field size.
