Reproducibility Variable Result LLM Response
Research Type Experimental and demonstrate its performance using simulation studies. Herein, we present a simulated example to demonstrate that the midpoints of the bounds on the causal effects given by Theorem 4 are adequate for estimating the causal effects.

Pseudocode Yes Algorithm 1: Generate Equivalent Tuple
Open Source Code No The paper does not provide an explicit statement about releasing source code for the methodology, nor does it provide a link to a code repository for the work described.
Open Datasets No The paper describes generating sample distributions for simulation studies and presents observational data in tables, but it does not specify a publicly available or open dataset with concrete access information (e.g., link, DOI, formal citation).
Dataset Splits No The paper does not specify explicit training/test/validation dataset splits or provide details on cross-validation setups.
Hardware Specification No The paper does not provide specific hardware details (e.g., GPU/CPU models, memory, or cloud instance types) used for running its experiments.
Software Dependencies Yes With the help of the SLSQP solver (Kraft 1988) in the scipy package (Sci Py Community 2020), we obtain the bounds on the causal effect...
Experiment Setup No The paper describes generating data for simulations and uses an optimization solver, but it does not provide specific experimental setup details such as hyperparameters, model initialization, or training schedules.
