Reproducibility Variable Result LLM Response
Research Type Experimental We now report on a small feasibility study that analyses the average approximation ratio of the algorithms from above on existing data sets. We implemented the algorithms from Sections 6.1 6.4 in Java, building on existing implementations for AAFs in Tweety Project9. We also implemented algorithms OPT and OPT* that optimally solve the problems MAXSTABLE and MAXSTABLE*, respectively.

Pseudocode Yes Algorithm 1 GCF algorithm for MAXSTABLE. Algorithm 2 SCF algorithm for MAXSTABLE. Algorithm 3 GFR algorithm for MAXSTABLE*. Algorithm 4 SFR algorithm for MAXSTABLE*.
Open Source Code Yes We implemented8 the algorithms from Sections 6.1 6.4 in Java, building on existing implementations for AAFs in Tweety Project9. 8http://tweetyproject.org/r/?r=ijcai24_opt_mt
Open Datasets Yes We used the ICCMA17 and the ICCMA19 datasets as benchmarks.11 ... 11http://argumentationcompetition.org
Dataset Splits No The paper mentions using 'ICCMA17 and the ICCMA19 datasets as benchmarks' but does not provide specific details on how these datasets were split into training, validation, or test sets.
Hardware Specification Yes The experiments were conducted on a server with Intel Xeon E5-2643 v3 3.40-GHz CPUs (each algorithm is single-threaded) with 192GB RAM
Software Dependencies Yes We implemented8 the algorithms from Sections 6.1 6.4 in Java, building on existing implementations for AAFs in Tweety Project9. We also implemented algorithms OPT and OPT* that optimally solve the problems MAXSTABLE and MAXSTABLE*, respectively. The algorithms for OPT and OPT* rely on straightforward Max SAT encodings of MAXSTABLE and MAXSTABLE* and were implemented in Java as well, using the Max SAT solver open-wbo 2.110 as backend solver.
Experiment Setup Yes The experiments were conducted on a server with Intel Xeon E5-2643 v3 3.40-GHz CPUs (each algorithm is single-threaded) with 192GB RAM and we set a timeout of 10 minutes per instance.
