Pseudocode Yes Algorithm 1 CEMP (Lerman & Shi, 2019) ; Algorithm 2 Message Passing Least Squares (MPLS) ; Algorithm 3 MPLS-SO(3)
Open Source Code No The paper mentions using implementations by other researchers ('We use their implementation by Chatterjee & Govindu (2018)') but does not provide access to the authors' own source code for the described methodology.
Open Datasets Yes We compare the performance of the different algorithms on the Photo Tourism datasets (Wilson & Snavely, 2014).
Dataset Splits No The paper does not explicitly provide specific training/test/validation dataset splits (e.g., percentages, sample counts, or references to predefined splits) needed for reproduction.
Hardware Specification Yes All computational tasks were implemented on a machine with 2.5GHz Intel i5 quad core processors and 8GB memory.
Software Dependencies No The paper mentions using existing implementations by other authors (e.g., Chatterjee & Govindu), but it does not specify software dependencies with version numbers for its own implementation or experiments.
Experiment Setup Yes We use the following default parameters for Algorithm 1: |Cij|= 50 for ij E; T =5; βt=2t and t=0,...,5. If an edge is not contained in any 3-cycle, we set its corruption level as 1. For MPLSSO(3), which we refer to in this section as MPLS, we use the above parameters of Algorithm 1 and the following ones for t 1: αt=1/(t+1) and τt=inf x n ˆPt(x)>max{1 0.05t,0.8} o . ... F(x) for MPLS is chosen as x 3/2 and it corresponds to ρ(x)= x. ... We use the convergence criterion P i [n] Ωi,t F/( 2n)<0.001 of Chatterjee & Govindu (2018) for all the above algorithms.
