Reproducibility Variable Result LLM Response
Research Type Experimental experiments are performed to demonstrate their performance on four datasets. We find that reshaping methods enforce shape constraints without compromising predictive accuracy. We apply our methods to four datasets in Section (3) and show that they enforce the pre-specified shape constraints without sacrificing accuracy.

Pseudocode Yes Algorithm 1 IISO Algorithm
Open Source Code No The paper describes the implementation details and tools used (e.g., "The BB method was implemented in R, and the OC and EX methods were implemented in R and C++, extending the R package ranger..."), but it does not provide any link or explicit statement that the code for their proposed reshaping methods is open-source or available.
Open Datasets Yes The diabetes dataset (Efron et al., 2004) consists of ten physiological baseline variables... Adult dataset (Lichman, 2013). The Spambase dataset (Lichman, 2013)
Dataset Splits Yes We apply 5-fold cross validation on all four tasks
Hardware Specification No The paper does not provide specific details about the hardware used to run the experiments (e.g., CPU, GPU models, memory, or cloud instances).
Software Dependencies Yes The BB method was implemented in R, and the OC and EX methods were implemented in R and C++, extending the R package ranger (Wright & Ziegler, 2017). The exact estimator from Section (2.2.1) is computed using the MOSEK C++ package (Ap S, 2017).
Experiment Setup Yes We apply 5-fold cross validation on all four tasks and present the results under the relevant performance metrics in Table (1). The random forest was fit with the default settings found in ranger.
