Reproducibility Variable Result LLM Response
Research Type Experimental On the experimental side, we demonstrate the usefulness of AFS for solving hard combinatorial problems, such as the generalized covering traveling salesman problem and the multiagent pathfinding problem.

Pseudocode Yes Algorithm 1 presents pseudocode for the unified view of BSS and BCS (blue for BSS and red for BCS). Algorithm 2 presents the pseudocode for AFS.
Open Source Code No The paper does not provide any specific links or explicit statements about releasing source code for the described methodology.
Open Datasets Yes We evaluate AFS in the GCTSP domain on benchmark instances from [Shaelaie et al., 2014].
Dataset Splits No The paper mentions using "69 medium instances (between 100 and 200 vertices) and 14 large instances (between 535 and 1000 vertices)" but does not specify any training, validation, or test dataset splits or cross-validation methodology.
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 The paper does not provide specific version numbers for any software dependencies or libraries used in the experiments.
Experiment Setup Yes All runs have a time limit of 100 seconds. All experiments use a 32 32 four-neighbor grid with 20% blocked cells placed randomly.
