Notice: The reproducibility variables underlying each score are classified using an automated LLM-based pipeline, validated against a manually labeled dataset. LLM-based classification introduces uncertainty and potential bias; scores should be interpreted as estimates. Full accuracy metrics and methodology are described in [1].

Research Type Experimental In this section, we present experiments with utilizing the strong convex relaxations based on the pairwise convexification methods proposed in the paper. In Section 5.1, we perform experiments to evaluate whether the convex model decomp provides a good approximation to the non-convex problem (11). In Section 5.2 we test the merits of formulation decomp (with a variety of constraints C) compared to the usual ℓ1-approximation from an inference perspective. Finally, in Section 5.3 we test the Lagrangian relaxation-based method proposed in Section 4.3.
