Reproducibility Variable Result LLM Response
Research Type Experimental In this section, we demonstrate the use of the proposed weighted kernels compared with the standard Kendall kernel for classification on a real dataset from the European Union survey Eurobarometer 55.2 (Christensen, 2010).
Researcher Affiliation Academia 1University of Oxford, Oxford, UK 2MINES Paris Tech & Institut Curie & Ecole Normale Sup erieure, PSL Research University, Paris, France.
Pseudocode Yes The proof is constructive and deferred to the supplements, where we also detail the pseudo-code for a fast computational algorithm.
Open Source Code Yes Code to reproduce all the experiments in the present paper is available at https://github.com/Yunlong Jiao/ weightedkendall.
Open Datasets Yes real dataset from the European Union survey Eurobarometer 55.2 (Christensen, 2010).
Dataset Splits No we randomly sub-sampled a training set of 400 participants and a test set of 100 participants.
Hardware Specification No The paper does not provide specific details about the hardware used for the experiments.
Software Dependencies No The paper mentions 'C++/R implementation' and 'kernel SVMs' but does not provide specific version numbers for software components or libraries used.
Experiment Setup No The paper states 'we chose to fit kernel SVMs with different kernels' but does not specify concrete experimental setup details such as hyperparameter values (e.g., learning rate, batch size, regularization) for these models.
