Research Type Experimental We illustrate some of the teaching dimensions by examples. These numerical experiments complement the theory to help build intuition and understanding. 6.1 Sometimes SVM can be Taught by One Item... We train our SVM with training set D0 by solving the standard SVM optimization problem... This was implemented with CVX (Grant & Boyd, 2014; 2008). ... We implement this teaching-set-finding problem in GAMS (using the nonlinear solvers SNOPT and MINOS)...

Pseudocode No The paper provides mathematical formulations and propositions but does not include any pseudocode or algorithm blocks.
Open Source Code No The paper mentions using CVX and GAMS, which are third-party software packages, but it does not state that the authors' own implementation code is open-source or provide a link to it.
Open Datasets No The paper constructs synthetic teaching sets for its numerical examples, such as D0 = {x1 = [5e-5 ... 5e-5], y1 = 1} or specific x+ and x- points. It does not use or provide access to a publicly available or open dataset for training.
Dataset Splits No The paper does not specify training, validation, or test dataset splits. It constructs specific teaching sets to demonstrate its theoretical findings.
Hardware Specification No The paper does not provide specific hardware details (e.g., GPU/CPU models, memory) used for running the experiments. It only mentions using CVX and GAMS for implementation.
Software Dependencies Yes This was implemented with CVX (Grant & Boyd, 2014; 2008). ... We implement this teaching-set-finding problem in GAMS (using the nonlinear solvers SNOPT and MINOS). The bibliography lists: GAMS. General Algebraic Modeling System (GAMS) Release 24.2.1. Washington, DC, USA, 2013.
Experiment Setup Yes We consider a homogeneous SVM in Rd with regularization weight λ = 5e-5. ... The learner is an inhomogeneous SVM (20) with λ = 1. ... a different SVM learner with λ = 3.
