Pseudocode No The paper describes the framework with text and diagrams but does not include formal pseudocode or algorithm blocks.
Open Source Code No The paper does not contain any statements about releasing source code or links to a code repository for the methodology described.
Open Datasets Yes We create two semi-synthetic datasets (Amazon-3C and Amazon-6C) based on the real-world Amazon review data2. 2http://jmcauley.ucsd.edu/data/amazon/index 2014.html
Dataset Splits Yes Each dataset is randomly split into 60%/20%/20% training/validation/test set.
Hardware Specification No The paper does not provide specific hardware details such as CPU or GPU models, or memory specifications used for running the experiments.
Software Dependencies No The paper mentions the use of neural networks but does not specify any software dependencies or their version numbers (e.g., Python, PyTorch, TensorFlow versions).
Experiment Setup Yes Unless otherwise specified, hyperparameters are set as β = 20, λ = 0.4. By default, we set K as the same number of true treatment clusters, then we alter K to test the performance and disentanglement in Section 4.4. All the results are averaged over ten executions.
