Pseudocode No No explicit pseudocode or algorithm blocks are provided in the paper.
Open Source Code No The paper does not provide any specific links or explicit statements about the availability of its source code.
Open Datasets Yes We conducted experiments on a real-world patient cohort extracted from a publicly accessible dataset provided by the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Program (SEER). https://seer.cancer.gov/causespecific/
Dataset Splits Yes We divide D into 500 subjects for training and 500 subjects for out-of-sample testing.
Hardware Specification No The paper does not specify any particular hardware (e.g., CPU, GPU models, or memory) used for running the experiments.
Software Dependencies No The paper mentions using 'R libraries cmprsk and survival', 'R-package threg', and 'R-package pec', and the 'ADAM algorithm', but does not provide specific version numbers for these software dependencies.
Experiment Setup Yes We run the algorithm in Section 4 with Q = 3 outputs for the first layer of the DMGP, and we use the default settings prescribed in [18] for the ADAM algorithm.
