Pseudocode No The paper does not contain structured pseudocode or algorithm blocks.
Open Source Code No The paper does not provide concrete access to source code (specific repository link, explicit code release statement, or code in supplementary materials) for the methodology described.
Open Datasets Yes We evaluated the LW-HCN model on the Li TS dataset and 3D-IRCADb dataset. The Li TS dataset is composed of 201 contrast-enhanced abdominal CT volumes... Following the evaluation procedures of the Li TS challenge1, we evaluated the segmentation performance... (footnote: https://competitions.codalab.org/competitions/17094#learn the details)
Dataset Splits Yes The Li TS dataset is composed of 201 contrast-enhanced abdominal CT volumes provided by various clinical sites around the world, including 131 volumes for training and 70 volumes for testing. ... We select 5 volumes from the Li TS training data to form a validation set, which is used to monitor the performance of our model.
Hardware Specification Yes Our model is implemented with Keras and optimized with the Adam algorithm [Kingma and Ba, 2015] on a NVIDIA Tesla P100 GPU.
Software Dependencies No The paper mentions 'Keras' as the implementation framework and 'Adam algorithm' for optimization, but does not provide specific version numbers for these or other software dependencies.
Experiment Setup Yes The initial learning rate is set to 0.001 and decayed according to the poly schedule lr = lr (1 iterations/total iterations)0.9. ... During training, we densely sample 12 256 256 sub-volumes from each CT scan as the input of the model. ... we adopt the gradient-checkpointing algorithm [Chen et al., 2016] to enlarge the batch size to 6.
