Reproducibility Variable Result LLM Response
Research Type Experimental We describe the results of numerical experiments when regularizing with the permutahedron (symmetric group) and the signed permutahedron (hyperoctahedral group). All problems were solved using the conditional gradient algorithm, as described in 5. We generated the true model bw Rd by sampling the entries from a uniform distribution in [0, 1] and subtracted the mean, keeping k d nonzeros; after which bw was normalized to have unit ℓ2-norm. Then, we sampled a random nby-d matrix X with i.i.d. Gaussian entries and variance σ2 = 1/d, and simulated measurements y = X bw + n, where n N(0, σ2 n) is Gaussian noise. We set d = 500 and σn = 0.3σ.

Open Source Code No The paper does not provide any statement or link indicating that the source code for the described methodology is publicly available.
Open Datasets No The paper states: "We generated the true model bw Rd by sampling the entries from a uniform distribution in [0, 1]..." and "Then, we sampled a random nby-d matrix X with i.i.d. Gaussian entries...". This indicates synthetic data generation, but no access information (link, DOI, citation) is provided for a publicly available or open dataset.
Dataset Splits No The paper mentions: "this constant, and the regularization constants for ℓ1 and ℓ2, were all chosen with validation in a held-out set". While a held-out set is mentioned for validation, specific details such as percentages, sample counts, or explicit split methodology are not provided.
Hardware Specification No The paper does not provide any specific details about the hardware (e.g., GPU/CPU models, memory) used for running the experiments.
Software Dependencies No The paper does not mention any specific software dependencies with version numbers (e.g., library names like PyTorch 1.9, or solver versions like CPLEX 12.4) that are needed to reproduce the experiments.
Experiment Setup Yes We set d = 500 and σn = 0.3σ. ... Here, we fixed n = 250 and k = 300 and ran the continuation algorithm with ϵ = 0.1 and α = 0.0, for 5 different initializations of v0.
