Pseudocode Yes Algorithm 1: Student-t Graph Learning; Algorithm 2: k-component Student-t graph learning
Open Source Code No The paper does not provide concrete access to source code for the methodology described in this paper.
Open Datasets Yes We perform experiments using historical daily price time series data, available in Yahoo! Finance TM, from financial instruments in three scenarios: (i) stocks belonging to the S&P500 index, (ii) foreign exchange markets, and (iii) cryptocurrencies.
Dataset Splits No The paper does not provide specific dataset split information (exact percentages, sample counts, citations to predefined splits, or detailed splitting methodology) needed to reproduce the data partitioning.
Hardware Specification No The paper does not provide specific hardware details (exact GPU/CPU models, processor types with speeds, memory amounts, or detailed computer specifications) used for running its experiments.
Software Dependencies No The paper mentions "cvxpy" but does not provide specific version numbers for it or any other software component used in the experiments.
Experiment Setup Yes In our ADMM algorithms, we set the penalty parameter to ρ = 1 and the hyperparameter η in (16) is adaptively increased until the rank constraint is satisfied. For GLE and NGL, we use grid search on the sparsity hyperparameter such that the resulting graph yields the highest modularity value. The graph weights in Algorithm 1 and 2 are initialized using the same procedure as in [8].
