Reproducibility Variable Result LLM Response
Research Type Experimental We evaluate our method against state-of-the-art baselines on model fitting tasks as gauged by log-likelihood. Through experiments on both synthetic and real-world datasets, we find that our proposed approach outperforms existing baselines on most of the datasets studied.

Pseudocode No The paper describes the model architecture and training process in text and diagrams, but does not include explicit pseudocode or algorithm blocks.
Open Source Code No We implement MCN-GEM in Pytorch, PGEM in Python, and use publicly available code for NHP1. 1https://github.com/HMEIat JHU/neurawkes
Open Datasets Yes We use the Integrated Crisis and Early Warning System (ICEWS) political event dataset (O Brien 2010) to test our model. ... Following Mei and Eisner (2017), we also test algorithms on the MIMIC-II dataset... The data is generated following the same sampling procedure described in Bhattacharjya, Subramanian, and Gao (2018).
Dataset Splits No For our experiments, we divide an event dataset into 70% 30% train-test splits.
Hardware Specification No The paper does not provide specific details about the hardware (e.g., CPU, GPU models, memory) used for running the experiments.
Software Dependencies No We implement MCN-GEM in Pytorch, PGEM in Python, and use publicly available code for NHP1.
Experiment Setup Yes Note that K is a hyperparameter, and Figure 2(b) shows one fake epoch (K = 1) introduced at ti,i+1. ... Note that J is a constant hyperparameter in the model. ... Ltrain = LL(D) + λp Lp + λw Lw (3) ... We study the impact of the number of fake epochs on the performance of MCN-GEM through a study on the ICEWS Argentina dataset. We vary the number of fake epochs, from 0 to 5... memory bank sizes (M=1,2,3,5,10).
