| Pseudocode | No | The paper describes the Forward Backward Euler scheme using mathematical equations (17) and (18) but does not provide structured pseudocode or an algorithm block. |
| Open Source Code | No | The paper does not provide any statement about releasing source code or a link to a code repository. |
| Open Datasets | No | The paper describes numerical experiments using generated Gaussian distributions ('µ0 is Gaussian with m0 = 10 and σ0 = 100') rather than a named, publicly accessible dataset with explicit access information or citation. |
| Dataset Splits | No | The paper describes numerical simulations to illustrate the scheme's behavior but does not specify training, validation, or test dataset splits. |
| Hardware Specification | No | The paper mentions running 'numerical experiments' but does not provide any specific details about the hardware used (e.g., GPU/CPU models, memory). |
| Software Dependencies | No | The paper does not specify any software dependencies with version numbers (e.g., Python, PyTorch, specific libraries). |
| Experiment Setup | Yes | We consider F(x) = 0.5|x|2, and H the negative entropy. [...] This allows to show the dynamical behavior of the FB scheme when γ = 0.1, and µ0 is Gaussian with m0 = 10 and σ0 = 100, in Figure 1. Note that λ = 1.0. |
