Reproducibility Variable Result LLM Response
Research Type Experimental In an empirical evaluation involving human users on AMT, we showed that the social utility approach significantly outperformed the MDP approach. All of our experiments were performed using Amazon s Mechanical Turk service (AMT). Participation in all experiments consisted of a total of 272 subjects from the USA, of which 44.4% were females and 55.6% were males.

Pseudocode No No structured pseudocode or algorithm blocks (e.g., sections labeled 'Pseudocode' or 'Algorithm') are present in the paper.
Open Source Code No The paper does not provide any explicit statement about making the source code available or a link to a code repository.
Open Datasets No All of our experiments were performed using Amazon s Mechanical Turk service (AMT). Participation in all experiments consisted of a total of 272 subjects from the USA, of which 44.4% were females and 55.6% were males. The paper describes data collected from human users on AMT, which is a custom-collected dataset from their own experiments. No concrete access information (link, DOI, specific citation to a public repository) is provided for this dataset.
Dataset Splits No The paper mentions dividing subjects into 'treatment groups' for data collection, but does not specify dataset splits (e.g., percentages or sample counts) for training, validation, or testing in a machine learning context.
Hardware Specification No The paper does not provide specific details about the hardware (e.g., CPU/GPU models, memory, or processor types) used for running experiments.
Software Dependencies No The paper mentions methods like 'ANOVA test' and 'value-iteration' but does not list specific software libraries, frameworks, or solvers with version numbers.
Experiment Setup No The paper describes the construction of the user model and agents, but does not provide specific experimental setup details such as hyperparameter values (e.g., learning rate, batch size, epochs) or detailed training configurations.
