Pseudocode Yes Algorithm 1: Structured Procrastination (few configs) Algorithm 2: Structured Procrastination (many configs)
Open Source Code No The paper does not provide any links to source code for the methodology described, nor does it state that the code is available or released.
Open Datasets No The paper is theoretical and does not use or provide access information for any public datasets for empirical evaluation. Example 2.2 uses a hypothetical scenario with 1000 input instances, not a real dataset.
Dataset Splits No The paper is theoretical and does not involve empirical experiments with dataset splits. Therefore, no training/test/validation splits are provided.
Hardware Specification No The paper is theoretical and does not report on empirical experiments, thus no hardware specifications are mentioned.
Software Dependencies No The paper is theoretical and does not report on empirical experiments, thus no specific software dependencies with version numbers are mentioned.
Experiment Setup No The paper focuses on theoretical guarantees and algorithm design; it does not describe an experimental setup with hyperparameters or training settings for empirical evaluation.
