Reproducibility Variable Result LLM Response
Research Type Experimental We evaluate our method on object recognition (Saenko et al. 2010) and sentiment analysis (Blitzer, Dredze, and Pereira 2007) with both shallow and deep features, using standard benchmarks and protocols. In all experiments we assume the target domain is unlabeled. We follow the standard procedure (Fernando et al. 2013; Donahue et al. 2014) and use a linear SVM as the base classifier.

Pseudocode Yes Algorithm 1 CORAL for Unsupervised Domain Adaptation
Open Source Code No The paper describes its algorithm and mentions that it can be implemented in 'four lines of MATLAB code' (Algorithm 1), but it does not provide any link or explicit statement for the public release of its source code.
Open Datasets Yes We evaluate our method on object recognition (Saenko et al. 2010) and sentiment analysis (Blitzer, Dredze, and Pereira 2007) with both shallow and deep features, using standard benchmarks and protocols. [...] standard Office (Saenko et al. 2010) and extended Office-Caltech10 (Gong et al. 2012) datasets [...] Cross-Dataset Testbed (Tommasi and Tuytelaars 2014) dataset [...] standard Amazon review dataset (Blitzer, Dredze, and Pereira 2007; Gong, Grauman, and Sha 2013)
Dataset Splits Yes The model selection approach of (Fernando et al. 2013) is used to set the C parameter for the SVM by doing cross-validation on the source domain. [...] In each trial, we use the standard setting (...) and randomly sample the same number (20 for Amazon, Caltech, and Webcam; 8 for DSLR as there are only 8 images per category in the DSLR domain) of labelled images in the source domain as training set, and use all the unlabelled data in the target domain as the test set.
Hardware Specification Yes The Tesla K40 used for this research was donated by the NVIDIA Corporation.
Software Dependencies No The paper states that the algorithm can be implemented in 'four lines of Matlab code' and mentions other tools like 'Alex Net' and 'linear SVM' but does not provide specific version numbers for any software dependencies.
Experiment Setup Yes The model selection approach of (Fernando et al. 2013) is used to set the C parameter for the SVM by doing cross-validation on the source domain. [...] In this paper, we set λ to 1.
