| Pseudocode | Yes | Algorithm 1 RENDER: Alternating inference of GS and θ, Algorithm 2 Simulated-annealing-based optimization, Algorithm 3 Proposal of compatible adjacency matrix |
| Open Source Code | No | The paper does not provide any explicit statements about releasing the source code or links to a code repository for the methodology described. |
| Open Datasets | Yes | We simulated a RDS process over the Project 90 graph (Woodhouse et al. 1994) and We also apply RENDER to data from an RDS study of n = 813 drug users in St. Petersburg, Russian Federation. |
| Dataset Splits | No | The paper does not explicitly provide details on training, validation, or test dataset splits, such as percentages or sample counts. |
| Hardware Specification | No | The paper does not provide specific details about the hardware used to run its experiments, such as GPU or CPU models, or cloud computing specifications. |
| Software Dependencies | No | The paper mentions 'FMINSEARCH in MATLAB' but does not provide specific version numbers for MATLAB or any other software dependencies crucial for replication. |
| Experiment Setup | No | While the paper describes parameters for synthetic data generation and theoretical model parameters (e.g., Gamma distribution parameters), it does not provide specific experimental setup details like hyperparameters, learning rates, batch sizes, or optimizer settings for training RENDER. |
