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 5 Numerical Experiments In this section, we compare the algorithm from our paper, randomized midpoint method, with the one from [10]. We test the algorithms on the liver-disorders dataset and the breast-cancer dataset from UCL machine learning [17]. In both datasets, we observe a set of independent samples {xi, yi}m i=1, where yi is the label, xi is the feature and m is the number of samples. We sample from the target distribution p (θ) exp ( f(θ)) , where P m i=1 log exp yix T i θ + 1 , for regularization parameters λ. We set λ to be 10 2 in our experiments. Figure 1 shows the error of randomized midpoint method and the algorithm from [10] with different step size h.
