Research Type Experimental In this section we present three examples that demonstrate the performance of CLo VER. The first two examples involve multiple information sources, and illustrate the reduction in computational cost that can be achieved by combining information from multiple sources in a principled way. The last example compares the performance of CLo VER to that of competing GP-based algorithms, showing that CLo VER can outperform existing alternatives even in the case of a single information source.

Pseudocode No The paper describes the algorithm steps in numbered prose but does not provide structured pseudocode or an explicitly labeled algorithm block.
Open Source Code Yes An implementation of CLo VER in Python 2.7 is available at https://github.com/anmarques/CLo VER.
Open Datasets No The paper describes using mathematical functions (e.g., Branin-Hoo function) and dynamical models, which are not typically 'datasets' with concrete public access information. It does not provide links or citations to publicly available datasets used for the experiments.
Dataset Splits No The paper does not provide specific dataset split information (percentages, sample counts, or detailed methodology) for training, validation, or testing their models.
Hardware Specification No The paper does not provide specific details about the hardware (e.g., GPU/CPU models, memory, or cloud resources) used for running the experiments.
Software Dependencies Yes An implementation of CLo VER in Python 2.7 is available at https://github.com/anmarques/CLo VER.
Experiment Setup Yes In this example we use covariance kernels of the Matérn class [22] with ν = 5/2, and zero mean functions. [...] In the present example we adopt d0 = 0.002 and d1 = 0.0005 as the mean values for the length scales of Σ0 and Σ1, respectively. [...] The integration over D is performed with the trapezoidal rule on a 50 50 uniform grid, and the optimization set A is composed of a 30 30 uniform grid.
