Reproducibility Variable Result LLM Response
Research Type Experimental We validate our model on both benchmark and real datasets, demonstrating that the proposed formulation yields significant performance gains relative to a parametric alternative, which we also propose. and Our model is evaluated on 4 diverse datasets: i) FLCHAIN: a public dataset... ii) SUPPORT: a public dataset... iii) SEER: a public dataset... iv) EHR: a large study from Duke University Health System... and Table 2. Median relative absolute errors (as percentages of tmax), on non-censored data.

Pseudocode No No pseudocode or clearly labeled algorithm block was found in the paper.
Open Source Code Yes Tensor Flow code to replicate experiments can be found at https://github.com/ paidamoyo/adversarial_time_to_event.
Open Datasets Yes Datasets Our model is evaluated on 4 diverse datasets: i) FLCHAIN: a public dataset introduced in a study to determine whether non-clonal serum immunoglobin free light chains are predictive of survival time (Dispenzieri et al., 2012). ii) SUPPORT: a public dataset introduced in a survival time study of seriously-ill hospitalized adults (Knaus et al., 1995). iii) SEER: a public dataset provided by the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Program. See (Ries et al., 2007) for details concerning the definition of the 10-year follow-up breast cancer subcohort used in our experiments.
Dataset Splits Yes To avoid bias due to multiple encounters per patient, we split the training, validation and test sets so that a given patient can only be in one of the sets.
Hardware Specification No The paper does not explicitly describe the specific hardware (e.g., GPU/CPU models, memory) used for running its experiments.
Software Dependencies No The paper mentions 'Tensor Flow code' but does not specify its version number or any other software dependencies with their versions.
Experiment Setup No The paper states 'Detailed network architectures, optimization parameters and initialization settings are in the Supplementary Material' but does not provide these specific details within the main text.
