Notice: The reproducibility variables underlying each score are classified using an automated LLM-based pipeline, validated against a manually labeled dataset. LLM-based classification introduces uncertainty and potential bias; scores should be interpreted as estimates. Full accuracy metrics and methodology are described in [1].

Reproducibility Variable Result LLM Response
Research Type Experimental Our empirical results demonstrate that PVI performs favourably compared to other SIVI methods across various tasks. In this section, we compare PVI against other semi-implicit VI methods.

Pseudocode Yes Algorithm 1 Particle Variational Inference (PVI)
Open Source Code Yes The code is available at https://github.com/jenninglim/pvi.
Open Datasets Yes We consider a Bayesian logistic regression problem on the waveform dataset (Breiman and Stone, 1984). Concrete (Yeh, 2007) Protein (Rana, 2013) Yacht (Gerritsma et al., 2013)
Dataset Splits No The paper does not explicitly state validation dataset splits for its experiments.
Hardware Specification Yes The code was written in JAX (Bradbury et al., 2018) and executed on a NVIDIA Ge Force RTX 4090.
Software Dependencies No The code was written in JAX (Bradbury et al., 2018). (No version number for JAX or other specific libraries).
Experiment Setup Yes PVI. We use M = 100, λθ = 0, λr = 10^-8, hx = 10^-2, hθ = 10^-4, Ψθ we use the RMSProp preconditoner, Ψr = Idz, and L = 250.
