Reproducibility Variable Result LLM Response
Research Type Experimental Experimental results on benchmark datasets demonstrate that the proposed algorithm not only can ensure the robustness of such soft clustering algorithm in real world applications, but also can avoid the performance degradation by considering the membership sparsity.

Pseudocode Yes Algorithm 1 The algorithm of RSFKM method
Open Source Code No The paper does not provide any links to or statements about the availability of its source code.
Open Datasets Yes Among those, two datasets are image datasets, COIL-201 and COIL-1002. The rest is the MNIST3 database of handwritten digits. 1http://www.cs.columbia.edu/CAVE/software/softlib/coil20.php 2http://www.cs.columbia.edu/CAVE/software/softlib/coil100.php 3http://yann.lecun.com/exdb/mnist/
Dataset Splits No The paper mentions evaluating on benchmark datasets and repeating clustering 10 times, but it does not explicitly provide details about specific training, validation, or test splits (e.g., percentages or sample counts) used for these datasets.
Hardware Specification No The paper does not provide any specific details regarding the hardware (e.g., GPU, CPU models, memory) used for running the experiments.
Software Dependencies No The paper does not specify any software dependencies with version numbers (e.g., Python, PyTorch, specific libraries).
Experiment Setup Yes For the regularization parameter γ, it puts a restriction on the minimum distance between a data point and a cluster center and prevents membership from having extreme values, 0 and 1. ... In this paper, the optimal value of γ was set empirically using the grid search method in a range from [10 1, 101] every 0.5 step. For the threshold value ", it mainly controls the number of outliers... Here we select " in a range of [0, 3].
