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].

Reproducibility Variable Result LLM Response
Research Type Experimental Experiments show that our algorithm runs much faster than exact algorithms and ๏ฌnds better solutions than those obtained by an existing approximation algorithm in many instances. Notably, our algorithm achieves better than a 90%-approximation in all instances for which optimal values are available.

Open Source Code No The paper states:
Open Datasets Yes This experiment uses air quality sensor data monitored at 11 stations in Shanghai, China (Zheng, Liu, and Hsieh 2013), and we focus on PM2.5 data.
Dataset Splits No The paper describes experiments involving optimizing a function on graph instances, not training machine learning models with explicit train/validation/test splits. Therefore, the concept of a 'validation split' as typically understood in machine learning is not directly applicable.
Hardware Specification Yes All experiments were performed on a computer equipped with 128 GB RAM and Xeon E5 3.1 GHz CPU.
Software Dependencies No The paper mentions:
Experiment Setup Yes The 2-D target space is discretized by the grid graph G = (V, E). We discretize the target space by using 5x9 and 7x13 grids. For simplicity, we suppose that the cost of traversing one edge is always 1, and the obtained path X E must satisfy the budget constraint |X| B for some B > 0. To assess the scalability of algorithms, we consider all feasible budget values: B = 1, 3, . . . , 43 for the 5x9 grid and B = 1, 3, . . . , 89 for the 7x13 grid.
