Pseudocode Yes Notations used in this paper, details of the computation of L and the pseudo code of NRI-MPM are shown in the supplementary material1.
Open Source Code No The codes of NRI2 and Modular Meta3 are public and thus directly used in our experiments. SUAGR is coded by ourselves according to the original paper. (Note: The paper states that code for *baselines* is public, but not for *their own method*.)
Open Datasets Yes All methods are tested on three types of simulated physical systems: particles connected by springs, charged particles and phase-coupled oscillators, named Springs, Charged and Kuramoto, respectively... Further details on data generation can be found in (Kipf et al. 2018).
Dataset Splits Yes All datasets contain 50k training samples, and 10k validation and test samples.
Hardware Specification No No specific hardware details (e.g., GPU/CPU models, memory amounts) used for running experiments were mentioned.
Software Dependencies No The paper mentions using GRUs and attention mechanisms as components, but does not provide specific software versions for libraries (e.g., PyTorch 1.9) or frameworks (e.g., TensorFlow 2.x) used for implementation. Mind Spore is mentioned in acknowledgements, but without a version number.
Experiment Setup Yes The penalty factor λ is set to 102 for all datasets except that it is set to 1 and 103 for the 5-object and 10-object Kuramoto datasets, respectively. Details of experimental settings are shown in the supplementary material.
