Abstract

A Boolean function g is said to be an optimal predictor for another Boolean function f, if it minimizes the probability that f(X^{n})\neq g(Y^{n}) among all functions, where X^{n} is uniform over the Hamming cube and Y^{n} is obtained from X^{n} by independently flipping each coordinate with probability \delta. This paper is about self-predicting functions, which are those that coincide with their optimal predictor.
