Reproducibility Variable Result LLM Response
Research Type Experimental We demonstrate the improved predictive performance of our model against state-of-the-art baselines on multiple synthetic and real-world datasets. 5 Experiments We compare our method with two state-of-the-art nonparametric Hawkes process variants.

Pseudocode No The paper describes algorithmic complexity and details but does not include any explicitly labeled pseudocode or algorithm blocks.
Open Source Code No The paper includes a footnote linking to 'https://github.com/HongtengXu/Hawkes-Process-Toolkit', which is a toolkit for Hawkes Processes, but does not provide an explicit statement or link for the open-source code of the method proposed in this paper.
Open Datasets Yes To show the flexibility of CGPRPP in modeling other complex event patterns than the bursty patterns as in many previously used datasets similar to the IPTV dataset, we derive multiple new event sequence datasets from MIMIC III [Johnson et al., 2016] consisting of lab tests ordered to patients in a hospital.
Dataset Splits No The paper mentions a validation set only in the context of tuning a baseline model (NSMMPP): 'The number of hidden units is selected from 64, 128, . . . , 1024 as in the original work through a validation set (80/20 split from the full training set)'. It does not explicitly provide validation splits for its own proposed method or for all experiments.
Hardware Specification No The paper does not provide specific hardware details such as exact GPU/CPU models, processor types, or memory amounts used for running the experiments.
Software Dependencies No The paper does not provide specific version numbers for any software dependencies, such as libraries or solvers, needed to replicate the experiments.
Experiment Setup Yes For the first dataset, we set Q = 1 and conditional points at 0, 5, . . . , 15 for CGPRPP. For HP-GS, the kernels are also placed at 0, 5, . . . , 15. For HP-LS, we set h = 1, k = 20.
