Reproducibility Variable Result LLM Response
Research Type Experimental Experimental results indicate that our method can speed up backpropagation by two orders of magnitude. We demonstrate the presented approach on a number of inverse problems, including parameter estimation and motion control for cloth. ... We conduct three experiments to showcase the power of differentiable cloth simulation.

Pseudocode Yes Algorithm 1 Cloth simulation
Open Source Code No The paper does not provide any explicit statement about open-sourcing the code or a link to a code repository.
Open Datasets Yes We used the real-world dataset from Wang et al. [30], which consists of 10 different cloth materials.
Dataset Splits Yes There are in total 50 frames of simulated data. The first 25 frames are taken as input and all 50 frames are used to measure accuracy.
Hardware Specification No The paper does not explicitly describe the hardware used for its experiments.
Software Dependencies No The paper mentions Py Torch [26] but does not specify a version number or other software dependencies with version numbers.
Experiment Setup Yes In our optimization setup, we use SGD with learning rate ranging from 0.01 to 0.1 and momentum from 0.9 to 0.99, depending on the convergence speed.
