Reproducibility Variable Result LLM Response
Research Type Experimental We evaluate our approach on five representative ERC models. Results on four benchmark datasets demonstrate that the proposed hybrid curriculum learning framework leads to significant performance improvements. We conduct experiments on four ERC benchmark datasets. Empirical results show that our proposed hybrid curriculum learning framework can effectively improve the overall performance of various ERC models, including the state-of-the-art.

Pseudocode Yes Algorithm 1: Training Process with HCL
Open Source Code No The paper mentions that baseline models have released their source codes, but there is no explicit statement or link indicating that the authors' own source code for the proposed method is publicly available.
Open Datasets Yes We evaluate our method on the following four published ERC datasets 1: IEMOCAP (Busso et al. 2008), MELD (Poria et al. 2019a), Daily Dialog (Li et al. 2017), Emory NLP (Zahiri and Choi 2018).
Dataset Splits Yes The detailed statistics of the datasets are reported in Table 1, which includes 'Train Val Test' columns for 'Conversations' and 'Utterances' for each dataset.
Hardware Specification Yes Our experiments are conducted on a single Tesla V100M32 GPU.
Software Dependencies No The paper does not specify the versions of software dependencies such as programming languages, libraries, or frameworks used in its implementation.
Experiment Setup No The paper mentions 'tunable hyperparameters include number of buckets in CC, max training epochs during each baby step, interval steps for training target updating in UC, decay factor in UC' and that 'These hyperparameters are manually tuned on each dataset with hold-out validation', but it does not provide their specific values.
