| Pseudocode | Yes | Algorithm 1: MRIV |
| Open Source Code | Yes | Reproducibility: The codes for reproducing the experimental results can be found at https: //github.com/Dennis Frauen/MRIV-Net. |
| Open Datasets | Yes | The so-called Oregon health insurance experiment (OHIE) (Finkelstein et al., 2012) was an important RCT with non-compliance. [...] Data available here: https://www.nber.org/programs-projects/projects-and-centers/oregon-health-insurance-experiment |
| Dataset Splits | Yes | For all methods except KIV and DFIV, we split the data into a training set (80%) and a validation set (20%). |
| Hardware Specification | Yes | For training, we used an AMD Ryzen Pro 7 CPU. |
| Software Dependencies | No | The paper mentions using the 'scikit-learn package' and 'R package Biased Urn' but does not provide specific version numbers for these or any other software dependencies such as deep learning frameworks (e.g., PyTorch, TensorFlow) or Python. |
| Experiment Setup | Yes | We use two hidden layers with RELU activation functions. We also incorporated a dropout layer for each hidden layer. We trained all models with the Adam optimizer (Kingma & Ba, 2015) using 100 epochs. [...] The tuning ranges for the hyperparameter are shown in Table 6. |
