Pseudocode Yes Our universal strategy for online convex optimization (USC) is summarized in Algorithm 1. [...] Algorithm 1 A Universal Strategy for Online Convex Optimization (USC)
Open Source Code No The paper does not provide any statement or link indicating that the source code for the described methodology is publicly available.
Open Datasets No We conduct both experiments on the a9a dataset (Chang & Lin, 2011). While a citation is provided, there is no explicit link, DOI, or repository information for accessing the dataset.
Dataset Splits No The paper mentions using the a9a dataset and sampling data points, but it does not specify explicit training, validation, or test dataset splits.
Hardware Specification No The paper does not provide specific hardware details (e.g., CPU/GPU models, memory specifications) used for running the experiments.
Software Dependencies No The paper mentions various algorithms (OGD, Adam, ONS, etc.) but does not list specific software libraries or their version numbers used in the implementation.
Experiment Setup Yes We configure λ = 0.02, the diameter of the decision set D = 20, and the time horizon T = 10000. [...] Acon includes OGD with step size ηt = G D t, and Adam with hype-parameters β1 = 0.9, β2 = 0.999, and different step sizes in range {1, 10 1, . . . , 10 4}. [...] Astr consists of SC-OGD with step size ηt = 1 λt, and SAdam with hype-parameters β1 = 0.9, β2 = 1 0.9 t , and step size α = 0.1 λ.
