Reproducibility Variable Result LLM Response
Research Type Experimental Numerical Experiments. We solve the optimization on a standard PC with the KNITRO solver. We compare the result of competitive ratios for different accuracies of the N-step threshold algorithm to the algorithm in adversary setting (Refer to Alg. 1). See the following table for the competitive ratios for various values of N and .

Open Source Code No The paper does not contain any statements about making source code publicly available or links to code repositories.
Open Datasets No The paper performs numerical experiments to evaluate theoretical competitive ratios rather than empirical studies on specific datasets. Therefore, the concept of a publicly available 'train' dataset is not applicable to this work.
Dataset Splits No The paper conducts numerical experiments on theoretical competitive ratios and does not involve dataset splits (training, validation, test) for model evaluation.
Hardware Specification No The paper states, 'We solve the optimization on a standard PC,' but provides no specific hardware details such as CPU/GPU models, memory, or other specifications.
Software Dependencies No The paper mentions using the 'KNITRO solver' but does not specify a version number or any other software dependencies with version information.
Experiment Setup No The paper describes parameters for its numerical optimization (e.g., N-step functions for h, accuracy values for epsilon) but does not provide specific experimental setup details such as hyperparameters (learning rates, batch sizes), model initialization, or training schedules typically found in machine learning experiments.
