Reproducibility Variable Result LLM Response
Research Type Experimental Our empirical results demonstrate that these MAPF-DL solvers scale well and each one dominates the other ones in different scenarios.

Pseudocode Yes Algorithm 1: High Level of CBS-DL (and MA-DBS); Algorithm 2: High Level of DBS
Open Source Code No The paper does not provide an explicit statement about the availability of its source code or a link to a code repository for the implemented methods.
Open Datasets No The paper describes generating its own problem instances for experiments, rather than using a publicly available dataset with a specified access method like a URL or citation. It states: 'We experimented on instances where the start and goal vertices of each agent are placed randomly... Specifically, we use three sets of randomly generated MAPF-DL instances... We generate 50 MAPF-DL instances for each number of agents for each set.'
Dataset Splits No The paper describes generating random problem instances for evaluation and running all algorithms on them, but it does not specify a training/validation/test split for these instances in the conventional machine learning sense.
Hardware Specification Yes In this section, we describe our experimental results on a 2.50 GHz Intel Core i5-2450M laptop with 6 GB RAM.
Software Dependencies Yes The ILP-based algorithm uses CPLEX V12.7.1 [IBM, 2011] as the ILP solver.
Experiment Setup Yes The start and goal vertices of each agent are randomly placed at distance 48, 49, or 50 for SMALL, 98, 99, or 100 for MEDIUM, and 148, 149, or 150 for LARGE. Each algorithm is given a time limit of 60 seconds to solve each instance.
