Pseudocode No The paper provides mathematical formulations and descriptions of algorithms, but no clearly labeled pseudocode or algorithm blocks.
Open Source Code No The paper does not provide any links to open-source code or explicitly state that code is made available.
Open Datasets No The paper evaluates performance on "synthetic graphs" and states "For every reported data point, we sample edge weights and generate n cascades". It does not use or provide access to a publicly available or open dataset.
Dataset Splits No The paper does not specify training, validation, or test dataset splits. It describes generating cascades on synthetic graphs.
Hardware Specification No The paper does not provide specific details about the hardware used to run the experiments.
Software Dependencies No The paper does not list specific software dependencies with version numbers.
Experiment Setup Yes For every reported data point, we sample edge weights and generate n cascades from the (IC) model for n {100, 500, 1000, 2000, 5000}. We compare for each algorithm the estimated graph Gˆ with G. The initial probability of a node being a source is fixed to 0.05, i.e. an average of 15 nodes source nodes per cascades for all experiments, except for Figure (f). All edge weights are chosen uniformly in the interval [0.2, 0.7]... The parameter λ is chosen to be of the order O( p log m/(αn)).
