Pseudocode No The paper does not contain structured pseudocode or algorithm blocks.
Open Source Code No The paper does not provide an explicit statement or link for open-source code for the described methodology.
Open Datasets No The paper conducts numerical simulations based on theoretical models and parameter settings (e.g., 'We set σ {0.15, 0.3, 0.45}', 'N-time step binomial tree model'), rather than using a traditional publicly available or open dataset for training purposes.
Dataset Splits No The paper does not specify training/test/validation dataset splits, as it relies on numerical simulations of financial models rather than traditional datasets.
Hardware Specification No No specific hardware details (e.g., CPU/GPU models, memory) used for running experiments were provided.
Software Dependencies No No specific software dependencies with version numbers were mentioned.
Experiment Setup Yes The range for m is [0.6, 1.4] with stepsize 0.1 while the range for q2(ϕ) is [0, 0.5] with stepsize 10 4. For European options, the benchmarks we use are the bounds in (De Marzo et al. 2016). Our optimal upper bounds are generated by solving the optimization problems with η numerically, while the benchmarks are calculated by plugging in the parameters directly. ... We set S0 = 100, σ = 0.15, T = 1 year, m [0.8, 1.2], and r = q = 0. ... Consider a N-time step binomial tree model from time 0 to time T with step size t = T N , where r = q = 0. During each step, the gross return of the stock is either u = eσ t or d = 1 u.
