Reproducibility Variable Result LLM Response
Research Type Experimental In this section, we conduct experimental evaluation to validate the effectiveness of Priv SR. We aim to answer two questions: (1) can Priv SR improve recommendation effectiveness by incorporating sensitive ratings and social relationships? and (2) can it protect sensitive ratings under reconstruction attack while retaining recommendation effectiveness? In the following, we first introduce our datasets and experimental settings, and then conduct experimental evaluation followed by analyzing impacts of parameters.

Open Datasets Yes Two publicly available datasets Ciao5 and Epinions6 are used for evaluation. For both datasets, users can rate products from 1 to 5 and establish social relations with others. Detailed statistics of these two datasets are shown in Table 1. 5http://www.ciao.co.uk/ 6http://www.epinions.com/
Dataset Splits Yes We use five-fold cross validation for the following experiments.
Hardware Specification No No specific hardware details are mentioned in the paper.
Software Dependencies No The paper does not mention any software with specific version numbers.
Experiment Setup Yes We then set γ = 10 4, λ = 10 3, α = 10 2 and the dimension K = 10.
