Notice: The reproducibility variables underlying each score are classified using an automated LLM-based pipeline, validated against a manually labeled dataset. LLM-based classification introduces uncertainty and potential bias; scores should be interpreted as estimates. Full accuracy metrics and methodology are described in [1].

Pseudocode Yes Algorithm 1 VITS algorithm; Algorithm 2 VITS-I; Algorithm 3 VITS II / VITS II Hessian-free
Open Source Code No The paper does not provide a direct statement or link for open-source code for the described methodology.
Open Datasets Yes Finally, our last contribution is to illustrate the empirical performances of our method on a synthetic and on the real world dataset Movie Lens (Lam & Herlocker).
Dataset Splits No The paper mentions using synthetic and Movie Lens datasets, but it does not specify explicit training/validation/test splits by percentages or sample counts for reproducibility.
Hardware Specification Yes In this work, we use GPUs v100-16g or v100-32g for running our code with GPU Nvidia Tesla V100 SXM2 16 Go and CPUs with 192 Go per node.
Software Dependencies No The paper mentions re-implementing an algorithm in JAX but does not specify a version number for JAX or any other software dependencies.
Experiment Setup Yes Parameters: step-size ht, number of iterations Kt; Table 1. Lin TS hyperparameter grid-search; Table 2. LMC-TS hyperparameter grid-search; Table 3. VITS hyperparameter grid-search
